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 has narrowed down the best pest control experts so you can find the best provider for you. We considered costs, pest control treatments offered, state availability, customer reviews, contracts, and more.
Here’s how we ranked them:
Founded in 1927, Terminix has almost 100 years of experience in the pest control industry. It uses the latest innovations in pest control to exterminate insects and unwanted wildlife wherever they are.
Terminix is most widely known for its specialty termite services, but they deal with much more than just that. Their other services include: mosquitoes, cockroaches, rodents, spiders, ticks, ants, and wildlife control including skunks, raccoons, squirrels, opossums, and more. Terminix offers a free inspection. A qualified pest control expert will take a look at your situation and provide a suitable control plan.
Orkin Pest Control’s headquarters are in Atlanta, Georgia. It is one of the longest-running pest control companies with a expansive network of branches. Because of its large network, Orkin can provide same-day or next-day service.
Orkin’s typical pest control plan is its annual pest control contract. After the first treatment, your Orkin specialist will follow up to check that the pests haven’t come back. If they have, your local technicians can assist.
Rentokil, a business service group, is the world's largest pest control company, representing hundreds of brands worldwide. Rentokil is the parent company of top North American pest control providers such as Presto-X, J.C. Ehrlich, and Western Exterminator, which provide tailored services.
Rentokil can protect your home from the common pests in Worth, including flies, bed bugs, spiders, moths, mosquitoes, crickets, ants, cockroaches, wasps, and bees. Its treatments are child- and pet-friendly.
Not all pest control providers are the same when it comes to reputation, expertise, and effectiveness. It's important to do your research to determine the right option for your specific pest problem. Here are the key factors to consider when selecting a pest control professional:
You should choose a pest control company that has expertise handling your specific problem, whether it's roaches, bed bugs, termites, rodents, or something else. The company should clearly describe on their website its expertise with your specific pest.
The ideal pest control company will employ technicians that have state licenses and are certified in pest control methods by organizations like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). These credentials show that the technicians have completed proper training. You'll also want to inquire with each company about continuing training for their employees.
Read through reviews on Google, Yelp, and similar sites before booking a pest control appointment. Ensure by reading reviews that the company reliably provides effective service and receives positive customer feedback. Also check the Better Business Bureau website for any complaints that have been filed. Ask whether technicians receive continuing regular education on the latest and most innovative pest control treatments. When you choose an exterminator from our list of Worth's best pest control, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer natural pest control methods, look for providers that advertise “green” accreditation. For bigger animals such as mice or squirrels, ask if a provider offers gentle catch and release programs. But keep in mind natural options may not work as well for major infestations. If you have a substantial pest problem, you may need stronger traditional methods. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reliable pest control companies normally offer service guarantees for recurring plans. These guarantees mean the company will make another visit and re-treat your home for free if pests remain after the first treatment. One-time services usually don't come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have selected a few top contending pest control companies, reach out to each one and be prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
Assess potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will allow you to pick a qualified provider to effectively fix your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
A variety of pests can find their way into Worth residences. Some are relatively harmless, but others can damage your home and your health. All of them can give homeowners anxiety. To help you identify the most commonly seen pests, we examined posts on social media and put together a list of the ones mentioned the most.
The top pest control providers are Terminix and Orkin. They can treat all common pests, have many locations, and have been in the industry for decades.
Hiring a pest control company and having a professional spray your property routinely is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and other wildlife from coming inside your home.
Whether you should do pest control yourself or hire a company depends on your situation. You’ll want to consider factors like what chemicals need to be used, how much the pest control will cost, and the size of the infestation. Additionally, you may want to also consider professional pest control if you're concerned about safety.
Many Worth homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control generally costs $40 to $70 per visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 a visit. To find out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several pest control companies for a quote.
If you already have a serious infestation, you should seek pest control as soon as possible. However, if you just want preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional come spray your house is in the spring before nest and colony numbers get too high when it's warmer. But it’s never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or in other seasons and see effective results.
