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 providers by looking at factors like coverage, customer satisfaction, types of pest control treatments offered, industry experience, and more.
Here’s how the top providers ranked:
Terminix’s headquarters are in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries globally. It has also been in business for almost 100 years. It uses the latest technology in pest control to rid your home of insects and unwanted wildlife anywhere you see them.
Terminix offers both one-time extermination services and seasonal pest control. In addition, every contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. Their service also comes with follow-up visits and annual inspections for guaranteed results.
Orkin has been in the industry for over 100 years. It has excellent consumer reviews and competent exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin takes care of many common pests, including cockroaches, spiders, silverfish, and ants. Orkin’s most common pest control service is also quarterly, which means your home will be treated several times over the course of a year.
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of industry experience. The company provides innovative pest control solutions for homeowners and business owners. This large service group is the parent company of several regional pest control providers in North America. These include Presto-X, J.C. Ehrlich, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil and its partners deal with the following pests: moths, flies, bees, bed bugs, mosquitoes, spiders, cockroaches, ants, wasps, and crickets. Depending on where you live, Rentokil may cover wildlife like rodents, snakes, and birds.
Pest control providers vary in reputation, proficiency, and capability. It's important to research businesses to find the right fit for your pest problem. Focus on these key factors when hiring a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that has extensive experience treating the type of pest you're dealing with, whether it's roaches, bed bugs, termites, rodents, or something else. The company should clearly lay out its area of expertise.
Look for pest control companies with technicians that have certifications in pest control methods from qualified industry groups, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to state licensing. Possessing the proper credentials shows that the technicians have received adequate training. You'll also want to ask about regular training updates.
Before booking an appointment, spend time reading online reviews on sites such as Google or Yelp to see which providers have a reputation for providing positive experiences and effective services. Also check for complaints via the Better Business Bureau. Inquire about ongoing training at the company as well as how its technicians stay up to date on current pest control best practices. When you choose a professional from our list of the top pest control in Sunrise, 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 humane catch and release methods for larger pests like mice or other burrowing rodents. However, 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. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, any pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control companies usually offer service guarantees for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a company will come back to re-treat your home free of charge if pests remain after the first treatment. One-off treatments may not include these reservice guarantees.
Once you have compiled a list of a few top-rated pest management providers, have conversations with each of them and come prepared to ask these types of questions:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control companies using these questions. This will allow you to select a qualified provider to effectively control your pest situation at a fair price.
Sunrise is home to various pests, from wildlife to insects. We reviewed around 10 million posts on social media to uncover the most common pests infesting local homes.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They're highly regarded in the industry and cover all common pests.
Hiring a pest control company and having a professional spray your property once every quarter is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and animals from coming inside your house.
To find the right pest control company for you, the key is to take your time and research your options thoroughly. We recommend obtaining estimates from several companies and looking at reviews to help figure out which company is the right one for you.
Many Sunrise homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically costs $40 to $70 per visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 per visit. To figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several pest control providers for an estimate.
Spring is the best time for preventative pest control. This is because nests and colony numbers will grow much larger when it's hotter, so spraying in the spring can help prevent you from getting too many pests later.
