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:
Our team at Today's Homeowner narrowed it down to these pest control companies by comparing contracts, state availability, costs, customer reviews, pest control treatments offered, and more.
Here’s how Marina’s top providers ranked:
Terminix has 300 branches in more than 22 countries and has been in business for over 90 years. With this breadth of experience, you can see why Terminix is a top choice for many homeowners.
Terminix has both one-off extermination services and routine pest control. Additionally, every contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. Terminix will inspect your home for free. A qualified technician will assess your situation and detail a suitable control plan.
Orkin Pest Control’s headquarters are in Atlanta, Georgia. It is one of the oldest pest control companies with a expansive network of branches. It has excellent consumer reviews and competent pest control specialists who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin takes care of many common pests, such as ants, cockroaches, silverfish, and spiders. Once the first treatment, your Orkin exterminator will follow up to make sure the pests haven’t returned. If they have, your local technicians can help.
Founded in 1925, Rentokil has almost 100 years’ worth of experience handling pests. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of several local pest control branches like J.C. Ehrlich, Western Exterminator, and Presto-X.
Rentokil provides integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both eliminating current pests and preventing future infestations. After the initial inspection of your property, a technician will treat your property every quarter.
Pest control companies vary in credibility, understanding, and competence. It's important to research services to find the right fit for your pest problem. Here are the key factors to consider when hiring a pest control provider:
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 explain their approach for treating your type of pest.
When selecting a pest control company, look for technicians that hold certifications from respected industry associations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), on top of proper state licensing. The right credentials indicate that the technicians have completed proper training. Also inquire about continuing education policies and total training hours.
We suggest reading customer reviews before scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and other review sites will show whether a company consistently provides quality service and has happy customers. Also check the Better Business Bureau website for any complaints that have been filed. Ask about the kind of ongoing education technicians receive to stay current on the latest pest control techniques and treatment methods. When you select a company from our list of the top pest control in Marina, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer more natural, eco-friendly pest control solutions, look for providers that have "green" accreditations. If you’re dealing with larger pests, such as mice or raccoons nesting in trees, you can also ask about humane catch and release. Bear in mind that natural pest control options may be less effective. You may need to consider the traditional route for a more serious infestation. Regardless of what methods you choose, any pesticides that are classified as greater than 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 come back to re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the initial treatment. One-off treatments may not include these reservice warranties.
After selecting your top pest management services, reach out to each one with questions such as these:
Take the time to thoroughly evaluate pest control companies using these questions. This will enable you to select the right provider to effectively control your pest situation at a fair price.
Marina is home to several pests, from insects to wildlife. To give you an idea of the most widespread pests in the city, we examined the pests discussed in around 10 million posts on various social media sites.
The best pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They cover all common pests, service locations all around the country, and have been in business for a long time.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is getting a pest control company to come to your home once every quarter or every two to three months. Getting your property sprayed regularly will stop insects and other wildlife from returning.
Pest control chemicals are safe but have 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 — or are wondering how long you need to stay out of your home after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Generally, you should stay away from your home for two to four hours after spraying.
Pest control involves removing unwanted bugs like bees, fleas, and other unwanted bugs or wildlife from your property. When you hire a pest control company, a professional will do an inspection. Then they will use various methods to get rid of the pests and prevent them from returning, such as chemical or natural sprays, bait, and traps.
Many Marina homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically costs $40 to $70 a visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 a visit. To determine exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several pest control providers for an estimate.
For apartments and homes, quarterly or even bi-monthly pest control treatments are advisable. If you have a more serious infestation, on the other hand, you may have to get monthly treatments for a few months until the issue is resolved.
