Today's Homeowner looks at dozens of datapoints on pest 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:
Looking for a pest control company with nation-wide expertise? Here are our top picks:
Terminix is one of the biggest and oldest pest control companies in the world, with branches across the United States and 22 other countries. The company offers cutting-edge pest control services that are safe for you and your family.
Terminix's specialty termite services are their most widely known service, but they help with much more than that. Their other services include: cockroaches, spiders, ants, rodents, mosquitoes, ticks, and wildlife control such as skunks, opossums, raccoons, squirrels, and more. In addition to pest control, Terminix offers services, like attic insulation, mechanical exclusion, home disinfection services, and moisture control.
Founded in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto Orkin, the company brand has evolved into one of the most trusted names in the pest control industry. Due to its vast network, Orkin can offer next-day, or sometimes even same-day, service.
Orkin offers a professional inspection of your property by expert pest control technicians to identify the problem pests and areas and draw up an appropriate treatment plan. After the first visit is done, your pest control specialist will follow up regularly to make sure that the pests have not returned.
It's important to know which pests you might come across as a resident of Rancho Mirage. So you can have an idea of the most widespread pests in the city, we analyzed the pests talked about in around 10 million social media posts.
The best pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They cover all common pests, service many locations, and have been in the industry for several decades.
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 your family and pets — or are wondering how long you should stay out of your house after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Typically, you should stay away from your home for two to four hours after spraying.
Many Rancho Mirage 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 figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several providers for an estimate.
If you already have a serious pest infestation, you should get pest control as soon as possible. However, if you'd just like preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional come spray your home is in the spring before nest and colony numbers get too high in the hotter part of the year. However, it's never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or in other seasons and see effective results.
