Services
From your very first phone call, we are confident you will see the Rainbow Pest Expert difference. As a result of our highly trained staff and a full range of pest prevention services, you will no doubt find an option that's right for your Minneapolis home or business. Whether you are dealing with multiple pests or just one, we have a variety of pest prevention plans and one-time service options. In addition to our standard pest prevention services, we also have the flexibility to create a program designed especially for you!
At Rainbow Pest Experts, we put you, our customer, first. Therefore, we offer single service pest control for the homeowner with a single pest problem. Maybe you only have an infestation of ants. Perhaps you want to eliminate mosquitos and ticks for outdoor enjoyment. Regardless, we will find the solution that best fits your needs!
Have you ever noticed that mice come back year after year, often in the same part of your house? The industry standard for dealing with mice is to bait and trap. While this can eliminate the current population of mice, it only provides a short-term solution. Unlike our competitors, our mouse exclusion and prevention services eliminate the current population and prevent them from returning!
With the temperature warming up and additional moisture seeping into the ground, spring leads to increased entry and activity of certain insects and pests in your home. Luckily, Rainbow Pest Experts offers an exceptional solution that fights against ants, centipedes, millipedes, spiders, and more! Our professional spring pest control provides you with superior insect control because you deserve peace of mind and a pest-free home.

I have used Rainbow for 20 years and have never been disappointed. The employees are friendly, helpful, very service oriented and professional. They do a great inspection inside and out, applying just the right treatments to eliminate or minimize pest problems. I am very pleased with their services and highly recommend them.

I noticed mice in my basement laundry room a few years ago (about 12 within a 3 month span) and gave Rainbow a call. A gentleman came out and confirmed the mice activity and went over my options. I decided to pay the $160 for the mouse bait stations; I believe I have a dozen of them and they say there's enough bait in those to last 10 years. The mice kept coming - and to ground level where I had traps set up, not to the bait stations and back into the walls to die. Rainbow came back out and suggested I insulate my foundation (December 2019).
I paid $800 to have this done. I am terrified of mice and I live alone; I just wanted this to stop. The following early fall of 2020, the mice came back. As part of my 2 yr contract, they came back out at no charge and confirmed that the bait traps had seen activity. They told me they couldn't identify a point of entry but that they could be coming in under my walkout in my backyard and that I would need to pull up the deck boards so they could look and reschedule another appt.
In March of 2021, I had my deck replaced. The contractors pulled up the old deck and Rainbow pest came to insulate the foundation, previously blocked by the deck. The expert said he didn't see any points of entry in this space. I had peace of mind that since my whole house was now cemented off, I would not get the mice anymore. They came out 2 or 3 more times after this because I was still getting mice. (I had 3 or 4 different "experts." The last visit I had, the manager came out and confirmed that a spot was missed around some electrical wiring in my backyard.
They closed this up and confirmed this was where they were coming in and I'd be good. Yesterday I found a dead mouse in the traps I still have set up in my basement. When I called Rainbow they told me my contract was up and gave me the sales pitch on setting up stations and having my home insulated. I am beyond disappointed with the experience I've had. Save yourself $1000 and call a different company! I still have mice and now I need to find someone else who can find where they're coming in and actually stop it!

When I purchased my 9 acre home, we had a mouse problem, terrible Box Elder Bug problem in the fall, and mosquitoes and ticks on the lawns in summer. I first hired Adam's pest control for the mice issue, but though I hired them for an exclusion, they did very little and never resolved the mice in the attic. I later switched to Aptive, but the chemicals they use are simply not the best.
The result was that we still had a lot of mosquitos and the Box Elder Bugs were entirely unimpressed. I finally discovered Rainbow Pest Experts, and the upgrade in quality of results and service is considerable. Yes, they are a little more expensive, but not by much. And I no longer have to deal with mice, mosquitoes, ticks, or Box Elder Bugs. I'll also mention that the mice exclusion they did for the home was super thorough.
They actually ran molded plastic strips along the floor of the garage where the foundation left a crack. They really sealed every possible entry point. My service guy at Rainbow Pest Experts is always Michael. He knows the home, and he is invested in doing the best job he can. I really appreciate his work!

We have done business with Rainbow Pest for a number of years, but have been fortunate over the past year or so to have the same technician taking care of our home, Alex Best. Alex is knowledgeable, courteous and takes the time to ensure we are satisfied with the work performed on EVERY visit. Alex takes great pride in what he does and does an outstanding job. Thank you Alex for taking great care of us every time you are out to our home, we certainly appreciate you!

Rainbow Pest Experts have helped me keep my 120-year-old duplex in great shape against ants & mice, which were a year-round problem before I started with them. They've always been courteous and considerate, including through the COVID pandemic, talking with me about how to keep me, the people I share the house with, and their employees safe. I recommend them without reservation!

Very poor experience. We have used Rainbow several times in the past with good satisfaction, so not sure what changed but their quality and service have deteriorated. Technician spent far less time and product than in past years with poor results. Called four times as service is "warrantied". Follow-up service cancelled due to weather and then just too late in season. Now we have bugs in the house. I would have been better off buying a jug of chemical at Home Depot.

We have been using Rainbow for nearly a year to help with some unwanted house guests. The people at Rainbow Pest have been incredible to work with. We were noticing a problem on a Friday and by Monday morning they were out helping us. Their service is professional, and you can really tell they care about the work that they do. Our technician Dave almost immediately diagnosed our problem and had all of the necessary tools to fix what was going on. I would highly, highly recommend turning to Rainbow for anything you need help with, they have been wonderful.

We want to especially recognize the expertise and services provided by Rainbow technician Philip M. We had an especially difficult problem with mice entering the house from outside through an access point almost impossible to get to and close off. However, Philip spent considerable time and follow-up sealing off the access and we have not had a problem since. He has been very thorough on return routine care visits and would recommend him to anyone experiencing a particularly difficult problem.

Our experience with Rainbow has been fantastic! Jillian handled my initial call in an extremely professional manner. She was straightforward on the pricing of services and immediately understood my need to schedule someone as quickly as possible. James came out the next day and was very thorough in his inspection and explanation of the next steps.
We felt confident in his expertise and contracted for Stage 1 that day. Even better, the cost of services was exactly what I had been told on the phone. Based on this interaction, we definitely recommend Rainbow.

Rainbow Pest Experts and James (the technician working for me) have been excellent to work with as our home badly needed a bait-and-seal for mice and other pests. Given I was late to the appointment at my own house and wasn't prepared, I would have fully expected any technician to show frustration. James did the opposite and was helpful & engaging.
Our family will definitely use Rainbow again and highly recommend this local, employee-owned company. As for James, Rainbow has a high-quality employee on their staff. It's always great to work with people who represent their company extremely well. Thanks, Rainbow and co.!

Rainbow PestExperts has been taking care of my home for over 4 years and it has been a WONDERFUL company to work with! Not only are they thorough and take care of any pests quickly and safely but they are so incredibly nice. I would not expect to have a pest control company become one of my favorite home care companies ever but they seriously are!
They really care about my home, my pet and keeping our family comfortable! I lost my husband 5 years ago and they came out to my house multiple times to seal up my home, etc. and one guy even helped fix my garage door just to be nice. They are truly super cool and genuinely care about getting rid of any critters or crawlers and thank god because I definitely don't like doing it!

I've been very happy with Rainbow Pest. From the people answering phones when I need to schedule a service to the people who come out to my house for service - everyone is super nice & easy to "work with". Dave has been to our house more than other pest experts & I like that because Dave knows what's going on from visit to visit. I like the consistency of having the same pest expert come to my house. Dave is great! Very friendly & great communication!

We called Rainbow to begin ongoing insect maintenance as well as deal with carpenter ants we've seen inside our home. Our pestologist Dave was friendly, informative, and thorough. I especially appreciated that he gave me time to review the contract while he went around applying the treatment. I feel like all my questions were answered and he attempted to provide good treatment coverage while avoiding my fruits and veggies that are growing. I signed up for their insect protection plan and am happy to have them as my pest control service provider.
