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:
Today's Homeowner narrowed it down to these pest control companies by comparing contracts, customer reviews, state availability, pest control treatments offered, costs, and more.
Here’s how Glendora’s top companies ranked:
Terminix ranks as one of the top four pest control companies worldwide, and it has been assisting homeowners with staying pest-free for over 90 years. With the amount of experience the company has, you can see why Terminix is a top choice for many homeowners.
Terminix is most widely known for its specialty termite services, but they exterminate much more than just that. Their other services include: spiders, cockroaches, mosquitoes, rodents, ants, ticks, and wildlife control including skunks, opossums, raccoons, squirrels, and more. In addition to pest control, Terminix has services, like home disinfection services, mechanical exclusion, moisture control, and attic insulation.
Orkin Pest Control is based in Atlanta, Georgia. It is one of the longest-running pest control companies with a large network of branches. It has positive customer reviews and professional exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin will send a pest control expert to inspect your property to identify potential problems and develop treatment plan. Orkin can set up regular follow-up visits. Also, if you have recurrent pest problems or any other immediate pest control needs, you can contact Orkin’s customer service.
Rentokil is a well-known name in pest control, with providers across the globe and close to a century of experience in the industry. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of several local pest control branches like J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil and its partners control for the following pests: bees, flies, spiders, crickets, wasps, mosquitoes, cockroaches, ants, moths, and bed bugs. The company guarantees satisfaction with its treatments. If you still have pest problems after service, Rentokil will make as many visits as needed to resolve the issue.
Not all pest control companies are identical when it comes to credibility, knowledge, and effectiveness. It's important to do your research to determine the best option for your specific pest problem. Here are the key factors to consider when choosing a pest control provider:
Look for a pest control company that has extensive experience treating the type of pest you're dealing with, whether it's rodents, roaches, bed bugs, termites, or something else. The company should thoroughly describe on their website its area of expertise.
When choosing a pest control company, look for technicians that are licensed by the state and certified in pest control methods by industry associations such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). Having these credentials shows that the technicians have adequate training. Question the company about the training hours required for its technicians as well as its policies for continuing education.
Before scheduling an appointment, take the time to read online reviews on sites such as Google or Yelp to verify that the company has a proven track record of providing effective service and positive customer experiences. Also look for any complaints via the Better Business Bureau. Inquire about the ongoing training the company’s technicians receive to ensure they stay up to date on current pest control best practices. When you choose a company from our list of Glendora's 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 providers offering “green” accreditation. For bigger animals such as mice or snakes, ask if a provider offers humane trapping and relocation. But keep in mind natural options may not work as well for significant infestations. If you have a considerable pest problem, you may need more effective traditional methods. Regardless of what methods you choose, all pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reliable pest control professionals typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. These guarantees mean the company will come back and re-treat your home at no cost if there are still pests after the first treatment. One-time services usually don't come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have compiled a list of a few top-rated pest management providers, reach out to each one and come prepared to ask these types of questions:
Evaluate potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will enable you to select a qualified provider to effectively take care of your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
Glendora is home to several pests, from insects to wildlife. We reviewed around 10 million social media conversations to determine the most common pests in the city.
The best pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They help with all common pests, have locations nationwide, and have been in business for decades.
Hiring a pest control company and having a professional spray your property regularly is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and animals from coming inside your home.
Chemicals used in pest control are safe but need to be handled by a professional. If you have any questions or concerns 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 house after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Generally, you should remain outside your home for two to four hours after spraying.
Many Glendora homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control usually 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 contacting several providers for an estimate.
For apartments and homes, quarterly or even bi-monthly pest control treatments are recommended. If you have a more serious infestation, however, you may have to get monthly treatments for a few months until the problem is resolved.
