## Contracts and sales practices

- Door-to-door badge: N/A.
- Sales notes: No door-to-door evidence was read on a page. Presto-X’s own site describes commercial/industrial pest management first and a residential PestFree365+ plan; branch pages for Fort Smith, Arkansas (and other branches) are commercial pages. Search-result snippets (leads only, pages not opened because Indeed/Glassdoor are off limits) show Presto-X/Rentokil job posts for a seasonal “Pest Control Start Tech” in Omaha, Nebraska and “Residential Sales Specialist” roles; none was read, so nothing is scored.
- PestFree365+ is the residential plan: “a year round pest protection plan for your home” covering 39+ common pests; the page publishes no price, minimum term, renewal, cancellation or arbitration terms.
- Promotion: $50 off a new PestFree365+ plan with code SAVE50 (company promotion, not a contract term).
- The only legal page on the site is a “Legal statement” covering use of the website (copyright, accuracy, no investment offer). It contains no service agreement, cancellation, renewal or arbitration terms, so the service-contract terms are unpublished.

## Legal and regulatory record

- Only resolved government actions count toward the score. Summaries are our researchers’ wording of the source.
- [Not counted in the legal score] September 4, 2026 · California (Alameda County DA with 28 other California DAs and the Los Angeles City Attorney) - parent-level, California facilities · settlement: Resolved $3.15 million civil settlement with Terminix International Inc. and Rentokil North America, Inc. over pesticide and hazardous-waste disposal and customer-record handling at California facilities (Western Exterminator / Terminix names). Names the parent legal entity that licenses Presto-X but no Presto-X branch, brand or covered-state facility; recorded for context, not scored for Presto-X (ruling October 28, 2026: actions naming only a parent).
- [Not counted in the legal score] December 4, 2025 · Texas Department of Agriculture, Structural Pest Control Service (enforcement report, rolling 12 months) · enforcement: Case 00048833 against TPCL 0688559 (RENTOKIL NORTH AMERICA INC, DBA PRESTO X, Bexar County, the San Antonio license): three violations (incomplete/incorrect use records; missing TPCL numbers on vehicle; failure to maintain apprentice/technician training records), agency action WARNING, penalty None. A warning with no penalty: recorded, not scored.
- [Not counted in the legal score] February 5, 2025 · Colorado Department of Agriculture, Pesticide Applicator Act enforcement (SFY 2025 finalized-actions table) · enforcement: Case 20230036, Rentokil North America, Inc., S Syracuse St & E Union Ave, Denver; statutes § 35-10-117(2)(a) and § 35-10-111, C.R.S.; outcome “Stipulation” (a stipulated agreement), 5-Feb-2025. The table names only the legal entity (no brand) and shows no penalty amount. It is not tied to Presto-X: the entity holds Colorado records for four brands (Presto-X 13620 Denver and 13624 Cheyenne Wyoming, Terminix 18295 Westminster and 18296 Colorado Springs, Ambius 18683 Denver County), and the incident location is not the Presto-X Denver branch address (445 Bryant St). Recorded, not scored.

- Verifier rated the legal and regulatory record medium (high earns a point).

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

### Gaps in the record

- Every source seen shows Rentokil (prestox.com footer “© 2026 Rentokil Initial plc”, “Rentokil Terminix family” brands page, Rentokil Initial 20-F brand list, licenses under Rentokil North America, Inc.). No Rollins/Orkin link was found anywhere. The date Rentokil acquired Presto-X was not found (BBB shows “Date of New Ownership 9/5/2007” on the Lincoln file without naming a buyer).
- Live Google Maps pages were not opened (Google Maps terms forbid automated access); instead all 20 listings were checked against the raw listings records and 18 against the company branch pages (address match). Google excerpts and themes are empty.
- BBB: Presto-X has nine BBB files in its states and none could be read as a customer-review source (each shows 0 or no reviews of its own). Three carry their own complaint records, all 0 complaints: Houston Texas (Not Rated), Des Moines Iowa (Not Rated) and Springfield Missouri (A+, branch’s older address). Six, Lincoln Nebraska (A+), La Vista Nebraska, Grand Island Nebraska, Sioux Falls South Dakota, Riverside Missouri and Wichita Kansas, display the Rentokil North America headquarters totals (273 complaints/3 years, 69/12 months; headquarters file 276/68 on October 27, 2026; review average 1.61 from 97) and are not attributable. BBB searches found no Presto-X file in Arkansas and Colorado (Denver, Rifle), Oklahoma and Wyoming, San Antonio Texas or Sikeston Missouri (search pages, November 2, 2026). Unanswered counts for the headquarters complaint list were not read, so no customer complaint is attributed to Presto-X.
- Other review platforms: Yelp pages appear only in search snippets (no rating visible; Yelp terms forbid automated access), no Trustpilot page for prestox.com was found, and Angi, HomeAdvisor, Thumbtack, Facebook, Nextdoor and Porch were not opened or not found. A Denver “4.87 from 382 verified reviews” figure in a search snippet comes from Experience.com (a company-solicited feed) and is not recorded or scored.
- Contract terms: prestox.com publishes no service agreement, FAQ answer, cancellation, renewal, minimum-term or arbitration terms (PestFree365+ page, residential page, My Account, Legal statement and branch pages read). The Legal statement covers website use only. Minimum term, auto-renewal, cancellation fee and channel, and arbitration are therefore unknown; the signed service agreement was not seen.
- Licensing not verified: Arkansas (company-licensing state, but license holders can be verified by email request only; Fort Smith and North Little Rock branches). Nebraska, Wyoming and South Dakota license individual applicators only (NDA says it issues no business licenses; WDA and DANR license applicators; individual records not searched). No company record was found for: Rifle, Colorado; Mason City, Iowa (IDALS; the listing was removed as not Presto-X). Springfield, Missouri is covered by MDA record 004G4W “Terminix-PrestoX”. Oklahoma license categories were not opened. Texas licenses are matched to the Houston and San Antonio listings by county and DBA only (the TDA CSV has no street addresses); the Dallas TPCL 0569755 (Rentokil North America, blank DBA) is not attributed. Recorded as gaps, no deductions.
- Business registry: only Colorado (open data) and Missouri (search-results row from the Bug Out capture) were read, both for Rentokil North America, Inc. (Good Standing). No registry lookup was done for a Presto-X-named entity (Presto-X LLC, Presto-X-Company, J.C. Ehrlich Co., Inc.) or for Texas, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Wyoming or Arkansas.
- Regulatory and legal: searches for Presto-X + lawsuit/settlement/attorney general/class action returned nothing relevant. State AG complaint data, FTC, court dockets (no free statewide case search in Colorado or Texas), OSHA (human-verification check on results), and the Missouri, Oklahoma, Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, Wyoming, South Dakota and Arkansas agency enforcement lists were not searched or are not published. The Colorado CDA SFY 2024 table capture held no readable rows and the SFY 2026 table link was not located; only SFY 2025 was read (one Rentokil North America row, recorded, not scored). TDA enforcement is a rolling 12 months.
- Employees: Indeed and Glassdoor were not opened (policy); search snippets show Presto-X pages on both with no usable rating, and RepVue was not searched. No employee reviews are on file and nothing is scored for Workplace.
- Sales model: no door-to-door evidence read. Snippets (not opened) show Rentokil/Presto-X job posts for a seasonal start technician in Omaha and Residential Sales Specialist roles. Status unknown.
- Only a 2020 Strictly Business Omaha profile and the 20-F brand list are recorded. Reddit threads seen only as snippets were not read. QualityPro/GreenPro certifications are company claims, not checked on the NPMA lists.
- Branches in Alabama, Indiana, Mississippi and Tennessee are outside the 24 states and not listed. Presto-X-branded licenses at Camdenton, Missouri and Tulsa, Oklahoma have no office or listing and are recorded in licensing/claims only.
- Other transient 40101 errors succeeded on retry. Snippets are leads only; nothing scored comes from a snippet.
- Each has its own Google CID, own website and own review set, so no review is double-counted; the MDA, IDALS and CDA records are shared by the Terminix and Presto-X names (“Terminix-PrestoX”, “Terminix Presto-X”). Licensing/registry for other states: none pending; every state with a listing was looked up or recorded as individual-only or unverifiable.

### Open questions

- Complaint record close call: three zero-complaint BBB files (two “Not Rated”) against six files that mirror the 273-complaint Rentokil headquarters totals.
- Conway, Arkansas listing (3 reviews) is unclaimed and off the branch list; whether the office still operates is unknown.
- Arkansas company license could not be verified (email request only); Rifle CO has no separate CDA record.
- Employee reviews and door-to-door status unknown (Indeed, Glassdoor off limits).
