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 considered several factors such as coverage, types of pest control treatments offered, customer service, industry experience, and more.
This is how the top companies in Hot Springs ranked:
Terminix has 300 branches in over 22 countries and has been in business for over 90 years. With this breadth of experience, you can see why Terminix is one of the top companies in the country.
Terminix takes care of all types of pest issues for residential and commercial customers. These include spiders, termites, roaches, rodents, ants, opossums, and raccoons. Terminix’s typical pest regimen includes a home inspection and initial treatment, followed by three seasonal treatments over the course of a year.
If you need fast pest control service in Hot Springs, Orkin could be the right company for you. Since 1901, Orkin has grown to be one of the largest pest control companies in the country. Its pest control specialists complete 160 hours of training. And, due to its large network, it can usually provide next-day — or even same-day — service.
Orkin’s most popular pest control plan is its annual pest control contract. Once the initial treatment, your Orkin expert will follow up to check that the pests haven’t come back. If they have, your local technicians can help.
Founded in 1925, Rentokil has nearly 100 years’ worth of experience handling pests. This large service group is the parent company of several regional pest control companies in North America. These include Presto-X, Western Exterminator, and J.C. Ehrlich.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both getting rid of current pests and preventing future infestations. Its services include preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Pest control services aren't all the same when it comes to credibility, understanding, and capability. It’s important to research providers to find the right one for your specific circumstance. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control professional:
It's best to choose a pest control company that is equipped to handle your specific problem, whether it's termites, bed bugs, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should have clearly laid out its expertise with your specific pest.
The ideal pest management provider will employ technicians that have state licenses and are certified in pest control methods by groups like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). These credentials demonstrate that the technicians have finished proper training. You'll also want to ask each company about continuing training for their employees.
Peruse reviews on Google, Yelp, and similar sites before scheduling a pest control appointment. Confirm through customer feedback that the company reliably provides effective service and a positive customer experience. Also check the Better Business Bureau website for any complaints that have been filed. Ask whether technicians receive consistent education on the latest and most innovative pest control treatments. When you choose a provider from our list of Hot Springs' best pest control, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer natural pest control methods, look for companies with “green” certifications. For bigger animals such as mice or snakes, ask if a provider offers gentle catch and release programs. Bear in mind natural options may not work as well for major infestations. If you have a moderate to serious pest problem, you may need more potent traditional solutions. Regardless of what methods you choose, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control professionals usually offer service warranties for continuing plans. The guarantees mean that a company will make another visit to re-treat your home free of charge if pests remain after the initial treatment. One-off treatments may not include these reservice guarantees.
After selecting your top pest control companies, reach out to each one with questions such as these:
Thoroughly evaluate potential pest control companies using these questions. This will help you choose the right provider to safely and effectively resolve your pest problem at a reasonable price.
Many types of pests find their way into Hot Springs homes. Some are relatively harmless, but others can damage your home and your health. All of them can cause anxiety. We studied around 10 million posts on social media to determine the most common pests in the city.
The top pest control providers are Orkin and Terminix. They cover all common pests, service many locations, and have been in the industry for several decades.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is having a pest control company come to your home once every two or three months. Getting your property sprayed regularly will stop insects and other wildlife from coming back.
Chemicals used in pest control are safe but must be handled by a professional. If you have any questions about the safety of the chemicals — such as if they're safe around 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.
There are some pests you can get rid of yourself. For example, if you see some ants or a rogue wasp, chances are you can get rid of it on your own. But some cases warrant bringing in the professionals. If you have an out-of-control infestation, you don’t know what the pest is, or would like preventative pest control, you should hire a pest control company.
In a city like Hot Springs, where the cost of living is relatively low compared to other cities, the cost of pest control may be a concern. The cost of pest control depends on several factors, such as what type of pests you have an issue with and how bad the infestation is. A single visit can cost between $300 and $500, but a quarterly treatment plan is usually cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
We advise quarterly pest control treatments, or even bi-monthly in Hot Springs, where pests can be more common because of the heat. For larger infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments for the first three to six months.
