St. Louis, MO, January 23, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Blue Chip Pest Control of St. Louis has earned the 2012 Angie's List Super Service Award.

Said Angie Hicks, founder of Angie's List, "It's a select group of companies rated on Angie's List that can claim the exemplary customer service record of being a Super Service Award winner." Every day, Angie's List updates the service company ratings. As stated on Angie's List, they grade companies "on an A through F scale in areas ranging from price to professionalism to punctuality."
