Today's Homeowner looks at dozens of datapoints on pest control companies to come up with our data-driven rankings. It's not possible for a company to pay for preferential treatment in our rankings. We look at the following key factors in determining who should top our list:
The team at Today's Homeowner narrowed down the top pest control companies by looking at factors like industry experience, coverage, customer satisfaction, types of pest control treatments offered, and more.
Here’s how Pompano Beach’s top companies ranked:
Terminix has several hundred branches in over 22 countries and has been in business for almost 100 years. With the amount of experience the company has, it’s easy to see why Terminix is a top choice for many homeowners.
Terminix handles all types of pest issues for homeowners and business owners. These include opossums, termites, spiders, ants, rodents, roaches, and raccoons. Terminix offers a free inspection. A qualified pest control expert will take a look at your situation and provide a suitable control plan.
Founded in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has grown to be one of the most trusted in the pest control industry. It has great consumer reviews and qualified pest control specialists who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin can protect your home from many common pests, including cockroaches, silverfish, spiders, and ants. After your first visit, your technician will follow up regularly to ensure that the pests have not returned. If they have, your local technicians can help
Rentokil is a respected name in pest control, with providers across the globe and nearly a century of experience in the industry. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of several local pest control companies like Presto-X, J.C. Ehrlich, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both getting rid of existing pests and preventing future infestations. Depending on your location, the pest control company may cover wildlife like rodents, snakes, and birds.
Not all pest control services are the identical in credibility, experience, and competence. Researching services helps you identify the right choice for your pest situation. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that has experience handling the type of pest you have, whether it’s rodents, roaches, bed bugs, termites, or something else. The company should be able to provide an overview of how they treat your type of pest.
When choosing a pest control company, look for technicians with certifications in pest control methods from respected industry associations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), on top of proper state licensing. The right credentials show that the technicians have completed adequate training. Also ask about continuing education policies and total training hours.
Before booking an appointment, take the time to read online reviews on sites such as Google or Yelp to verify that the company has a proven track record of providing effective service and positive customer experiences. Also check for complaints via the Better Business Bureau. Inquire about the ongoing training the company’s technicians receive to ensure they stay up to date on the latest pest control methods and treatments. When you choose a company from our list of Pompano Beach's best pest control, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
Homeowners who want natural, eco-friendly pest control should look for providers that specialize in “green” certified solutions. You can also ask about trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or raccoons nesting nearby. Keep in mind that natural options may be less effective for serious infestations; if you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need more potent chemical treatments. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control professionals usually offer service guarantees for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a company will come back to re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the first treatment. One-off treatments typically don't include these reservice guarantees.
Once you have reduced your options to your top pest management companies, reach out to each one and ask questions such as:
Take the time to thoroughly analyze pest control companies using these questions. This will allow you to choose the right provider to effectively control your pest situation at a fair price.
Pompano Beach is home to several pests, from wildlife to insects. We compiled a list of the most common pests in the city by analyzing what pests were frequently mentioned on social media platforms.
The top pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They can treat all common pests, have locations all around the country, and have been in business for a long time.
Hiring a pest control company and getting a professional to spray your property routinely is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and animals from coming inside your house.
Pest control chemicals are safe but have to be handled by a professional. If you have any questions about the safety of the chemicals — such as if they're safe around young children and pets — and how long you should stay out of your home after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Typically, you should remain outside your home for two to four hours after spraying.
To find the best pest control company for you, the key is to take your time and do thorough research. We recommend obtaining estimates from several companies and reading reviews to help determine which company is the right one for you.
Many Pompano Beach homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control generally costs $40 to $70 a visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 per visit. To determine exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several providers for an estimate.
Spring is the best time for preventative pest control. The reason is nests and colony numbers will get much higher when it's hotter, so pest control in the spring can help prevent your property from getting too many pests later.
