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 Today's Homeowner team narrowed down the top pest control providers by comparing factors like types of pest control treatments offered, coverage, customer satisfaction, industry experience, and more.
This is how they ranked:

Not all pest control businesses are identical when it comes to credibility, expertise, and capability. It's important to do your research to determine the most suitable option for your specific pest problem. Here are the key factors to consider when choosing a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that can address the type of pest you have, whether it’s rodents, roaches, bed bugs, termites, or something else. The company should be able to provide an overview of how they treat your type of pest.
When choosing a pest control provider, look for technicians that have the proper state licensing and are certified in pest control methods by industry associations such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). Possessing these credentials demonstrates that the technicians have adequate training. Ask the company about its policies for continuing education and the total training hours required for technicians.
Look through reviews on Google, Yelp, and similar sites before booking a pest control appointment. Verify for yourself 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 ongoing education on the most cutting-edge pest control treatments. When you choose an exterminator from our list of the top pest control in La Riviera, 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 services that use “green” certified solutions. You can also ask about trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or raccoons nesting nearby. However, natural options may be less effective for serious infestations; if you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need stronger traditional methods. Regardless of what methods you choose, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control companies usually offer service guarantees for continuing plans. The guarantees mean that a provider will make another visit to re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the first treatment. One-off treatments may not include these reservice guarantees.
Once you have reduced your options to your top exterminators, contact each one and ask questions such as:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control providers using these questions. This will help you choose the most qualified provider to safely and successfully resolve your pest problem at a fair price.
La Riviera is home to a number of pests, from wildlife to insects. To give you an idea of the most prevalent pests in the city, we reviewed the pests talked about in around 10 million social media posts.
Our top picks for pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They're well known in the industry and cover all common pests.
Hiring a pest control company and getting a professional to spray your property routinely is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and animals from coming inside your house.
The key to finding the right pest control company for you is to get in touch with multiple companies and get estimates from them. You should also make sure to read reviews to check their reputation and customer satisfaction.
Many La Riviera homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control usually costs $40 to $70 a 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 an estimate.
If you already have a serious infestation, you should seek pest control as soon as possible. However, if you’re just interested in preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional come spray your house is in the spring before colony numbers get too high in the hotter part of the year. But it’s never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or any other season and see effective results.
