## Contracts and sales practices

- Door-to-door badge: N/A.
- Sales notes: No door-to-door evidence found. Searched (broker, October 28, 2026) for summer/door-to-door sales jobs, recruiting pages and reviews describing reps at the door: nothing names Affinity. The evidence on file shows phone and office sales (the company’s own BBB reply cites “the sales phone call”). Indeed and Glassdoor pages were blocked, so job ads could not be read directly. Recorded as unknown (N/A), not “no”.
- Company-stated (BBB reply, 06/04/2025): the complainant had signed a 12-month service agreement; its early-cancellation fee was $143.50, which the company describes as “Only 50% of the remaining cost of the services agreement”. The company waived the fee. (counted in the score)
- Company-stated: the agreement is sold over a recorded sales phone call and signed by the customer; $41/month with quarterly visits. (counted in the score)
- Company-stated: the veterans/active-duty discount (50% off the initial service) requires a 1-year agreement; other offers require sign-up for a recurring plan. (counted in the score)
- Published plan prices: Premier Program from $43/month; Premier + Termite from $58/month; Premier Plus (adds six mosquito treatments April–September) from $88/month; Standard Pest Program $41/month; mosquito add-on from $89 per service.
- Customer report (Meridian listing): customer prepaid a full year under a “1 year agreement” that includes free re-service between visits.
- Reddit (r/Boise) comment, search snippet only: a commenter warns against Affinity after signing a contract they did not read.
- The service agreement is not published. The website carries only a Privacy Policy (last modified 01/14/2026) and SMS Terms and Conditions (last updated 08/12/2026); neither covers the service contract, auto-renewal, cancellation method or dispute resolution. No arbitration clause found.
- Guarantee: free re-service if pests appear between scheduled visits; same-day service if called before noon (M–F) and Saturday service.

## Legal and regulatory record

- Only resolved government actions count toward the score. Summaries are our researchers’ wording of the source.
- [COMPLAINT RECORD, a count or summary of complaints, not findings; not counted in the legal score] October 28, 2026 · BBB Great West + Pacific (Idaho) · complaint-summary: BBB (Idaho file, Nampa): 1 complaint in the last 3 years, 0 in the last 12 months. The complaint (06/02/2025, Customer Service Issues, Answered) disputed invoice notes about wasp-nest and web removal and sought a refund; the customer said she could not leave the 12-month contract without paying a fee. The company replied that she signed a 12-month agreement on a recorded sales call, canceled her without the $143.50 early-cancellation fee (50% of the remaining cost) and declined the $164 refund.
- [COMPLAINT RECORD, a count or summary of complaints, not findings; not counted in the legal score] October 28, 2026 · Idaho Attorney General · complaint-summary: Idaho Attorney General site search for “Affinity Pest”: no result names the company (results are unrelated reports and settlement documents that contain the words “affinity” or “pest”).

## What we couldn’t verify

Overall confidence in this score: High, 7 of 11 points. [How confidence is set](https://handshakereviews.com/how-we-review#confidence).

Where it fell short of full marks:

- 2,081 Pacific Northwest Google reviews behind customer satisfaction (3,000 or more earns a point; 10,000 or more earns full points).
- Verifier rated the legal and regulatory record medium (high earns a point).
- 16 independent websites cited (25 or more earns a point).

Verifier’s confidence by section: Identity high; Licensing high; Legal and regulatory medium; Customer reviews high; BBB high; Employee reviews low; Mentions medium; Sales model medium.

### Gaps in the record

- Live loads on October 28, 2026 confirmed all three listings as this business (Nampa 5.0/1,569; Meridian 5.0/541; Boise 5.0/1). Google showed the limited signed-out view (a few reviews per listing, sort not available), so low-rated Google reviews could not be read; no negative Google excerpt is recorded.
- Boise listing (950 W Bannock St Suite 1100) carries the company phone, website and veteran-owned attribute (confirmed live October 28, 2026) but is not listed as an office on the company site. Search snippets suggest the suite is a shared executive office (other businesses list Ste 1100; Regus Boise Downtown is on West Bannock St); not confirmed on a page. Kept as the company’s own listing (1 review, no effect on totals).
- Idaho SOS principal address is STE B 5220 N Sawyer Ave, Garden City, Idaho 83714 (also on the Nextdoor page and third-party directories). The company site does not list a Garden City office and there is no Google listing for it, so it is not added to locations.
- Yelp business page blocked (HTTP 403); the 4.1 from 9 reviews figure is a search snippet only and is not scored.
- Facebook: page figure read (98% recommend, 39 reviews), but individual recommendations need login and were not read.
- Reddit blocked by a human check (not evaded); the one r/Boise comment rests on a search snippet.
- Indeed and Glassdoor blocked (HTTP 403); no employee ratings, so Workplace is unscored. No RepVue or Comparably profile found.
- Idaho licenses individuals only; only owner Scott L Godin’s ISDA record (51688, also shown on BBB) was checked. Technicians are named by first name only, so their licenses were not checked.
- ISDA has no public enforcement list; Idaho pesticide enforcement not checked.
- Courts: CourtListener case-law search only (no results); RECAP dockets and Idaho iCourt (Odyssey) were not searched. OSHA establishment search not run (human check).
- Service agreement not published: auto-renewal, cancellation channel and dispute/arbitration terms unknown. The company states the 12-month term and the 50% early-cancellation fee in its own BBB reply.
- No door-to-door evidence found in searches for sales jobs, recruiting pages or reviews; job ads on Indeed could not be read (blocked).
- Separate business excluded: “Affinity Pest Control, LLC” of Logan, Utah shares no address, phone or website with this Idaho company. Idaho SOS shows only one “Affinity Pest Control” entity (3698890).
- Site links to NPMA and the Idaho Pest Management Association, but membership was not verified on either association’s site; no certification recorded.
- ISDA, BBB and Google loads needed retries (timeouts) but all resolved.

### Open questions

- Service agreement unpublished: auto-renewal, cancellation channel and dispute terms remain unknown (undisclosed-terms deduction applies).
- Whether the Boise Bannock St suite is a staffed office or an executive/virtual office is not confirmed on a page (no scoring effect).
- ISDA enforcement, Idaho iCourt, RECAP and OSHA not checked.
