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:
When ranking these pest control providers, we compared factors like customer service, types of pest control treatments offered, coverage, industry experience, and more.
This is how we ranked the top pest control companies in Ogden:
Terminix is one of the top four pest control companies in the world, and it has been helping homeowners and businesses stay pest-free for over 90 years. The company provides professional pest control treatments that are safe for you and your family.
Terminix exterminates all kinds of pest issues for residential and commercial customers. These include raccoons, spiders, termites, rodents, ants, opossums, and roaches. Terminix’s typical pest regimen consists of a home inspection and initial treatment, with three seasonal treatments over the course of a year.
Orkin has been in the business for over 100 years. It has great consumer reviews and trained pest control specialists who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin can protect your home from many common pests, including ants, spiders, cockroaches, and silverfish. Orkin’s most common pest control service is also seasonal, which means your home will be treated several times during the year.
Rentokil, a business service group, is the world's largest and most widely recognized pest control company, which is comprised of hundreds of brands worldwide. Rentokil is the parent company of top North American pest control providers including Presto-X, J.C. Ehrlich, and Western Exterminator, which can provide tailored services.
Rentokil and its partners control for the following pests: cockroaches, bees, moths, crickets, flies, bed bugs, mosquitoes, ants, spiders, and wasps. Rentokil’s treatments are child- and pet-friendly.
Pest control businesses aren't all equal when it comes to reputation, understanding, and capability. It’s important to research providers to find the right one for your specific situation. Focus on these key factors when hiring a pest control company:
Choose a pest control company that is equipped to handle your specific problem, whether it's roaches, bed bugs, termites, rodents, or something else. The company should have clearly laid out its expertise with your specific pest.
The ideal exterminator will employ technicians that have state licenses and are certified in pest control methods by associations like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). These credentials show that the technicians have finished proper training. You'll also want to ask each company about continuing training for their employees.
Look through reviews on Google, Yelp, and similar sites prior to scheduling a pest control appointment. Ensure by reading reviews that the company reliably provides effective service and a positive customer experience. Also check for any Better Business Bureau complaints that have been filed. Ask whether technicians receive ongoing education on the latest and most innovative pest control treatments. When you choose an exterminator from our list of Ogden's best pest control, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
Homeowners who want natural, eco-friendly pest control should look for companies that promote “green” certified solutions. You can also ask about trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or squirrels in your attic. 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 stronger traditional methods. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control providers typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean the company will come back and re-treat for free if you still have pests in your home after the initial treatment. One-time treatments don't typically include reservice guarantees.
Once you have selected your top pest control providers, reach out to each one with questions such as:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control companies using these questions. This will help you hire the best provider to safely and successfully eliminate your pest problem at a fair price.
Ogden is home to several pests, from insects to wildlife. To help you prepare for the most commonly seen pests, we analyzed online discussions and created a list of the ones mentioned the most.
Our top picks for pest control companies in Ogden are Terminix and Orkin. They're respected in the industry and help get rid of all common pests.
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.
To find the best pest control company for you, the key is to take your time and do thorough research. We recommend obtaining quotes from several companies and looking at reviews to help figure out which company is the best for you.
Many Ogden homeowners wonder about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically costs $40 to $70 per visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 a visit. To determine exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several providers for a quote.
For apartments and homes, quarterly or bi-monthly pest control treatments are advisable. If you have a more serious infestation, however, you may have to get monthly treatments for a few months until the infestation is resolved.
