## Contracts and sales practices

- Door-to-door badge: Not found.
- Sales notes: No evidence of residential door-to-door canvassing by Orkin in Washington, Oregon and Idaho was found: no summer-sales job posts, solicitor permits or reviews describing reps at the door. PNW sales roles seen are commercial B2B prospecting and assigned leads, and technicians are expected to upsell on visits. PNW customer reviews describe phone sales and sales-rep upsells (Wilsonville, Portland), not doorstep sales. The parent’s 10-K lists door-to-door marketing among regulated solicitation methods across all Rollins brands; Rollins also owns Saela, a separately branded door-to-door company. The door-to-door badge stays “Not found” because general web search (news, Reddit, city permit lists) was unavailable.
- Orkin does not publish prices; cost is quoted locally.
- Residential guarantee: free re-service between scheduled treatments and a money-back guarantee (company terms).
- The About page describes the residential money-back guarantee as 30 days.
- Orkin says its commercial ‘Triple Guarantee’ includes a 2-hour response/24-hour on-site guarantee, reimbursement of regulatory fines caused solely by pests, and three 60-day complimentary-service guarantees (company terms).
- Introductory promotion shown on the homepage: $50 off the first recurring service.
- Rollins (parent) says its pest and termite services are performed under contracts that specify pricing.
- Customer report (Eugene, Oregon Google review): a 30-day cancellation notice is required.
- Customer report (Everett, Washington Google review): about a 40% price increase within a year, attributed to a contract price-increase clause.
- Customer report (Kent, Washington Google review): a one-time wasp treatment came with a 30-day warranty.

## Legal and regulatory record

- Only resolved government actions count toward the score. Summaries are our researchers’ wording of the source.
- [RESOLVED ACTION, counted in the legal and regulatory score (−2)] November 23, 2025 · California (Orange County DA with Contra Costa, San Mateo and other county DAs; Orkin Services of California) · settlement: Orange County, Contra Costa, San Mateo and other California DAs reached a $3,150,000 stipulated judgment with Clark Pest Control of Stockton, Orkin Services of California and Crane Pest Control (all Rollins-owned). It resolved allegations of unlawful disposal of pesticides and hazardous waste in dumpsters, and of customer records discarded without shredding, found in 2021-2022 audits of 40 dumpsters at 22 Clark and Orkin facilities. The DA said the companies cooperated.
- [RESOLVED ACTION, counted in the legal and regulatory score (−0.5)] April 18, 2022 · U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (national; parent Rollins Inc.) · settlement: Rollins Inc., Orkin’s parent, agreed to pay an $8 million civil penalty, without admitting or denying the findings, to settle SEC charges that it made unsupported reductions to accounting reserves in Q1 2016 and Q2 2017 to round up reported EPS to meet analyst estimates. Its then-CFO paid $100,000. This concerns financial reporting, not pest-control service.
- [Not counted in the legal score] May 2024 · Maine Board of Pesticides Control (Orkin, LLC DBA Mainely Ticks, Wells, Maine) · enforcement: Proposed administrative consent agreement summary (file dated May 2024): the staff summary counts 461 violations: pesticide applications in 2021 and 2022 by two company applicators who were certified but not licensed with the company, plus seven label violations for spraying in rain in Sanford, Maine, in April 2022. The summary says the employees were removed and that staff negotiated the settlement with Orkin and Rollins management with guidance from the Attorney General’s office. The penalty amount is not in the summary, and the board’s final acceptance was not confirmed.
- [Not counted in the legal score] May 2016 · Maine Board of Pesticides Control (Orkin Exterminating Company Inc., Portland, Maine branch) · enforcement: Proposed administrative consent agreement in a May 2016 board-meeting packet: in October 2015 an Orkin applicator treated a non-customer’s home in Sweden, Maine, by mistake, without the owner’s authorization and without positively identifying the treatment site. Orkin acknowledged treating the wrong property. The proposed penalty is $1,000. The document is unsigned; the board’s final acceptance was not confirmed.
- [LAWSUIT OR ALLEGATION, claims are allegations unless the summary states an outcome; not counted in the legal score] July 10, 2025 · U.S. District Court, N.D. Georgia (1:25-cv-03819), FLSA 29 U.S.C. 216(b) action · lawsuit: Charles v. Orkin, LLC: FLSA minimum-wage/overtime suit filed July 10, 2025 against Orkin, LLC and Rollins, Inc.; 30 other individuals filed consents to join. On the defendants’ consent motion, the court on Aug. 28, 2025 stayed proceedings through Dec. 1, 2025 and administratively closed the case, stating the closure is not a dismissal. The order says that if no request to reopen is made by Dec. 8, 2025, the case will be considered dismissed with prejudice. The docket shows no later entries; no settlement or outcome is shown.
- [LAWSUIT OR ALLEGATION, claims are allegations unless the summary states an outcome; not counted in the legal score] July 31, 2019 · Mississippi (arbitration; Biloxi) · lawsuit: An arbitrator ordered Orkin to pay a Biloxi couple more than $1.9 million, finding fraud by withholding material facts in a transferred termite contract that did not cover Formosan termites.
- [LAWSUIT OR ALLEGATION, claims are allegations unless the summary states an outcome; not counted in the legal score] May 27, 2014 · U.S. District Court, E.D. Washington (4:14-cv-05065) · lawsuit: Orkin, LLC v. Malek: Orkin sued a defendant for breach of contract in Washington. The case ended Nov. 13, 2014 with a stipulated final injunction and dismissal with prejudice. The complaint was not read.
- [LAWSUIT OR ALLEGATION, claims are allegations unless the summary states an outcome; not counted in the legal score] August 9, 2013 · U.S. District Court, W.D. Washington (3:13-cv-05683) · lawsuit: Griswold v. Orkin, LLC: employment civil-rights case (nature of suit 442), filed Aug. 9, 2013 and terminated Jan. 15, 2015. Outcome not shown on the docket page.

The states alleged that Orkin claimed its “Orkin Foam System” would keep termites from returning, which could not be substantiated, and that its ads implied a full warranty it did not offer. The settlement bars unsupported efficacy claims and misstatement of guarantee terms, requires a “limited guarantee” or “limited warranty” disclosure on any advertised guarantee, and lets consumers with disputes under $10,000 use cheaper consumer arbitration. Orkin paid $150,000 for investigation costs.
- [COMPLAINT RECORD, a count or summary of complaints, not findings; not counted in the legal score] October 11, 2026 · Washington (WSDA pesticide enforcement) · complaint-summary: No action naming Orkin, Rollins, Surety Pest Control, Crazy Frog Pest Control, Acurid, Sawyer or PNWPestSolutions appears in WSDA’s published pesticide enforcement action lists for 2019 through Q3 2026.

### Gaps in the record

- Gap-fill web search (October 12, 2026, 6 searches) found no Reddit threads about Orkin in Seattle, Portland or Spokane results (a direct Reddit search the same day found some; see below), no Washington, Oregon and Idaho attorney-general or court action, and no trade-press on the Surety Pest Control or Crazy Frog Pest Control acquisitions (only Orkin’s 2016 purchase of Prime Pest Control, Spokane). Not covered: YouTube/podcasts and PNW local TV/newspaper coverage beyond these queries. ConsumerAffairs ‘best pest control in Seattle/Portland’ pages returned HTTP 403 (bot check), so their Orkin picks are not recorded. Update: Reddit was searched directly on October 12, 2026 through the SociaVault Reddit search API (query: Orkin: Seattle OR Portland OR Spokane OR Boise OR Tacoma OR Vancouver OR Eugene): 7 posts returned, 5 about this company, 5 tied to the Pacific Northwest; 1 more thread about this company came from another company’s search (the Terminix search). The threads are listed in the On Reddit section. Only post titles and opening text were read; comment threads weren’t fetched yet.
- Trustpilot, ConsumerAffairs, Glassdoor, Comparably and Yelp returned HTTP 403. Facebook showed ‘This content isn’t available right now’. Angi, HomeAdvisor, Thumbtack, Porch, Nextdoor and Birdeye profile URLs could not be found without web search.
- Washington Secretary of State (CCFS) registration was not confirmed. At research time CCFS showed a bot-verification wall; on verification (October 11, 2026) the site loads, but its business search runs behind a Cloudflare Turnstile challenge, which is not solved by policy. The CCFS placeholder licensing entry was removed. The UBI 600204663 comes from WSDA records, which WSDA marks as applicant-supplied and unverified.
- Idaho ISDA applicator lookup searches individuals only; no Orkin, Sawyer, Inc. or PNWPestSolutions business-level pesticide license could be confirmed in Idaho.
- No BBB profiles for Orkin in Washington or Oregon were found by BBB directory search (Seattle, Portland, Spokane). The national Atlanta HQ profile URL could not be found without web search (guessed URL returned 404). BBB data covers only the Idaho franchise profile.
- Google review dates are relative (‘3 months ago’, as of October 11, 2026) as shown on Maps. For several listings Maps did not apply the ‘Newest’ sort in headless mode, so excerpts come from Google’s default order (marked per listing). Lowest-rated excerpts were captured where that sort applied.
- WSDA lists Pasco (CA 79879) and Hayden/PNWPestSolutions (CA 92642) commercial-applicator licenses as Expired 12/31/2025. WSDA’s search shows only licensees renewed in the last two years, and a replacement applicator may hold the license under another company record not found by the ‘Orkin’ name search. Current status needs direct confirmation with WSDA.
- Oregon ODA ‘Stop Sales and Violations’ and Idaho ISDA enforcement records were not reviewed (URLs not found without web search). WSDA enforcement lists 2019 to Q3 2026 were reviewed and show no Orkin entries.
- Orkin contract terms (auto-renewal, cancellation fees, minimum term) were not found on orkin.com public pages; only customer reports are recorded.
- No Washington, Oregon and Idaho city solicitor-permit records for Orkin were found (requires web search).
- Charles v. Orkin, LLC (N.D. Ga. 1:25-cv-03819): CourtListener (last updated Aug. 29, 2025) and Law360’s case tracker show nothing after the Aug. 28, 2025 stay and administrative closure. Whether the case was reopened by Dec. 8, 2025 or became a dismissal with prejudice could not be confirmed without PACER. The stay motion says the parties would discuss the arbitration agreements and a possible resolution.
- The two Maine Board of Pesticides Control items (2016 wrong-property application; 2024 Mainely Ticks unlicensed applications) come from proposed consent agreements in board packets. Final board acceptance, and the Mainely Ticks penalty amount, were not confirmed.

### Open questions

- Three Google customer-report quotes in the contract terms and sales evidence (Eugene 30-day cancellation notice, Everett ~40% increase, Wilsonville pushy phone sales) match only the same-day JSON captures; re-open live when Google Maps stops serving the limited view.
- Charles v. Orkin, LLC (N.D. Ga. 1:25-cv-03819): the docket shows nothing after Aug. 28, 2025. Was the case reopened by Dec. 8, 2025, or treated as dismissed with prejudice under the stay order?
- Washington Secretary of State registration for Orkin is still unconfirmed (CCFS search behind a Cloudflare Turnstile challenge).
- WSDA Commercial Applicator licenses for Pasco (79879) and Hayden/PNWPestSolutions (92642) show Expired 12/31/2025; confirm current licensing with WSDA.
- Is Sawyer, Inc. (Idaho Orkin branches) a franchisee under Orkin Systems, Inc.? No franchise agreement seen.
- The Fife, Washington address comes only from the NPMA directory and is not on orkin.com location pages; it may be an outdated listing.

### Notes on identity

- Idaho Orkin branches (Boise/Garden City #913, Chubbuck #913E, Twin Falls #913X) appear to be operated by Sawyer, Inc. (Idaho corp., est. 1991), a franchise-style operator: ODA license AG-L0124153CPO is ‘SAWYER INC’ DBA ‘ORKIN PEST CONTROL INC’, and the BBB profile ‘Orkin Idaho’ lists alternate name ‘Sawyer, Inc.’ and an owner. The ‘franchise’ label is inferred from these records plus Orkin’s stated U.S. franchise program; no franchise agreement was seen.
- The Hayden, Idaho Google listing (‘Orkin’, 5.0, 49 reviews) belongs to PNWPestSolutions LLC (Idaho LLC filed 11/21/2024) DBA ‘Orkin Pest Control’ per WSDA. It is not on orkin.com’s Idaho locations page.
- WSDA company records under Orkin include DBAs for acquired or affiliated brands: ‘Surety Pest Control’ (Oak Harbor, Washington branch), ‘Crazy Frog Pest Control’ (Pasco) and ‘Acurid Commercial Services’ (Kent).
- Rollins Inc. (Orkin’s parent) also owns Saela Pest Control, acquired April 1, 2025 for $207.2 million, which is researched separately in this dataset.
