Promax Pest Management is a Chicago pest control company with a strong public reputation: 4.9 stars from 73 Google reviews, comfortably meeting CertifiedLocal’s thresholds for both review volume and average rating. The profile is claimed, includes a phone number and links to a business website, while recent review activity shows the listing is still current. The sample provided is uniformly positive, though it represents only five of the 73 reviews, so it offers a useful but limited view of the company’s work. Speed and thoroughness are the clearest themes. One customer reports that Ahmad arrived within two hours to investigate a suspected bed bug problem and conducted a careful inspection. Another says he handled an issue at a retail store quickly. A landlord dealing with a substantial mouse problem describes next-morning service, placement of bait and traps, attempts to seal entry points, and detailed follow-up by phone and photographs; the tenant reportedly saw no further mice during the following two weeks. Customers also point to professional attention, practical explanations, and a focus on resolving the immediate problem rather than pushing a subscription. One reviewer chose Promax despite receiving a competing quote that was $25 lower, citing Ahmad’s confidence and technical knowledge, while another considered the price reasonable for the work performed. There are still profile limitations worth noting. CertifiedLocal’s automated check says the company does not meet the 50-hours-per-week benchmark; the posted schedule totals 48 hours, with shortened Saturday hours and Sunday closure. The check also flags the seven-day profile as incomplete despite a daily schedule being shown in the supplied data, so customers should confirm availability directly, especially for weekend emergencies. No service options are listed on the profile, making it difficult to determine the full range of pests or treatments covered without calling. Promax does respond to reviews at the required rate and has no recent unanswered one- or two-star outlier, but the replies shown are brief acknowledgments rather than substantive responses. Promax looks best suited to customers who value prompt, hands-on service for problems such as mice, suspected bed bugs, or commercial pest issues. The rating, review volume, and specific accounts of careful inspections and follow-up are persuasive. Before hiring, confirm that the company handles your particular pest, ask what the treatment and follow-up include, and verify scheduling if you need service outside weekday business hours.

He is a master of his craft indeed, his background and knowledge in chemistry makes him stand out among other pest control business’."

View original on Google ↗„Can I give 20 stars?!? Ahmed answered the phone on the first try. I told him about a mouse problem in our condo that we rent out in Rogers Park. My tenant had caught 5 mice in the same week so there was a real issue. Ahmed showed up the next morning, set bait and traps and did what he could to cover any holes. He called and gave me a detailed explanation of the work he did in addition to sending me lots of pictures. That was about two weeks ago and my tenant has not seen a mouse since. And to top it off, for the quality of service I found his rate to be very reasonable. Service like this is hard to find these days!! Thank you again Ahmed!"
