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:
We narrowed down the top pest control companies by comparing factors like coverage, industry experience, types of pest control treatments offered, customer satisfaction, and more.
Here’s how Culver City’s top providers ranked:
Terminix ranks as one of the top four pest control companies worldwide, and it has been helping homeowners and businesses stay pest-free for over 90 years. The company offers professional pest control services that are safe for you and your family.
Terminix takes care of all types of pest issues for residential and commercial customers. These include raccoons, spiders, ants, termites, roaches, opossums, and rodents. In addition to pest control, Terminix offers services, such as mechanical exclusion, home disinfection services, attic insulation, and moisture control.
Orkin has been in the business for over 100 years. Its exterminators need to undergo 160 hours of training. In addition, due to its big network, it can usually offer next-day — or even same-day — pest control.
Orkin takes care of many common pests, such as cockroaches, spiders, ants, and silverfish. After the first visit, your pest control specialist will follow up regularly to ensure that the pests have not returned. If they have, your local technicians can assist
Rentokil has been helping homeowners remove common pests for over 90 years. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of quite a few local pest control companies like Western Exterminator, Presto-X, and J.C. Ehrlich.
Rentokil and its partners deal with the following pests: bees, flies, ants, crickets, moths, cockroaches, mosquitoes, bed bugs, wasps, and spiders. Its services consist of preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Pest control services vary in reputation, expertise, and effectiveness. It's important to research services to find the right fit for your pest problem. Here are the key factors to consider when selecting a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that can address the type of pest you have, whether it’s bed bugs, termites, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should be able to provide an overview of how they treat your type of pest.
Look for pest control companies that employ technicians with certifications in pest control methods from expert organizations, 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. Also ask about continuing education opportunities.
We suggest reading customer reviews before scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and similar sites can tell you whether a company consistently provides quality service and has happy customers. Also check for any Better Business Bureau complaints that have been filed. Ask about the kind of ongoing education technicians receive to stay current on best pest control practices. When you choose a company from our list of the top pest control in Culver City, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer more eco-friendly and natural pest control solutions, look for providers that have "green" accreditations. If you’re dealing with larger pests, such as mice or squirrels invading your attic, you can also inquire about humane catch and release methods. Keep in mind that natural pest control options may be less effective; consider a more traditional route if dealing with a serious infestation. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk must be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control professionals usually offer service guarantees for continuing plans. The guarantees mean that a company will make another visit to re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the initial treatment. One-off treatments typically don't include these reservice guarantees.
Once you have reduced your options to your top pest control providers, reach out to each one and ask questions such as:
Assess potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will allow you to choose a qualified provider to effectively take care of your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
Many types of pests end up finding their way into Culver City homes. Some are relatively harmless, but others can damage your home and your health. All of them can give homeowners anxiety. We reviewed around 10 million social media posts to determine the most common pests in the city.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies in Culver City are Terminix and Orkin. They're highly regarded in the industry and help get rid of all common pests.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is having a pest control company come to your home once every quarter or every two to three months. Regularly spraying your property 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 young children and pets — and how long you have to stay out of your home after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Generally, you should remain outside your home for two to four hours after spraying.
In a city like Culver City, where the cost of living is very high compared to other cities, the cost of pest control is most likely a concern. The cost of pest control varies based on several factors, such as what kind of pests are troubling you and how bad the infestation is. A single visit can cost between $300 and $500, while a quarterly treatment plan is generally cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
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 you from getting too many pests later.
