"Providence’s take on the Statue of Liberty, the Big Blue Bug welcomes Rhode Islanders and perplexed visitors alike to the city from the roof of a pest control company that he helped bring to prominence. The blue, 58-foot-long, fiberglass termite was built in 1980 as a marketing ploy for the company it sits on top of, New England Pest Control (now Big Blue Bug Solutions). Since then, however, it’s come to represent not just a pest extermination company, but the character of its city and state. A contest was held to name the insect with the winning idea being “Nibbles Woodaway” (clever, eh?). Nibbles was actually purple when he was first created since that is the actual color of termites under a microscope, however as the paint faded in the sun, he took on his now signature blue hue which he quickly caught on and was never changed.    What this Big Blue Bug says about the character of Rhode Island is another story altogether, but Rhode Islanders revel in seeing the Bug dressed up for different holidays and seasons (for example, with reindeer antlers for Christmas and Del’s frozen lemonade for summer), and seeing the reactions of outsiders questioning why it is again that they came to visit Rhode Island when they first see a giant blue bug greeting them next to the highway." - ATLAS_OBSCURA

Aaron came out to spray for carpenter ants. He has been the technician that I have had the pleasure of working with for the past few years. He is professional, knowledgeable and very pleasant. He takes the time to stop and answer any questions I asked. I feel very confident with the work he performs. He is definitely an asset to your company.

I have been using the Big Blue Bug for mice removal for a while. They have been great! Then I ran into an massive infestation of carpenter ants. I was overwhelmed by the degree of damage they were causing. I called for help and they scheduled it immediately. Ramaar, was my technician and he was incredible! He took all the time that was necessary to truly eradicate the problem. He was so polite and so professional! I cannot say enough about the way he entered into my home to address the issues causing so much distress in our lives! I would trust the Big Blue Bug with any pest problem I should ever encounter. They really care about who they hire, their education, and their standards! I am so pleased to have them as my company of choice!

We rely on Big Blue Bug for keeping our home and property clear of pests. While all of the techs we've had visit our home are excellent, Aaron, particularly, is an especially thorough technician. He's professional, knowledgable, and I always feel confident when he's assigned to our home for service.

We’ve recently had issues with flying squirrels and bats, and mice. Have had three very good people from your company come to handle. Thank you, Wren, Corey C. and Aaron. They were all knowledgeable, detailed with inspecting/evaluating and are working on how to remedy our issues. They all provided helpful advice and efficient follow up. Although we are still in the process of fixing our issues, I’m confident and pleased with each of these individuals and would highly recommend to anyone.

Wren showed up on time and explained what she was going to do and what the follow up process would be and the results we should get. Very professional, courteous and incredibly knowledgeable. Very neat also. Looking forward to having her finish this two stage procedure. Highly recommend her!

Started a membership with BBBS 2 weeks ago. Their technician Alley has been by my house twice so far to take care of some issues for me. She has been professional, kind and respectful each visit. She's clearly very knowledgeable within her trade.

We have a mouse/ants/bees policy and get great value out of it with regular service and last minute calls when needed. The support staff is always kind and responsive. We had service today to refill our mouse traps, and the technician, Aaron, was prompt, professional, and he worked fast. Then, before leaving, he went above and beyond by offering to fill in the holes left around our oil pipes. This is one of those things I was going to get around to eventually that weighs on my mind, so it genuinely made my day to have this fixed for free! And he did a better job than I would have. Thanks, Aaron!

We have been seeing Carpenter Ants in our home, so we called Big Blue Bug Solutions. Aaron showed up on time, and was thorough and provided great customer service. Thank you!
