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:
When ranking these pest control companies, we considered several factors including coverage, customer service, industry experience, types of pest control treatments offered, and more.
This is how the top pest control companies in Redondo Beach ranked:
Terminix is one of the largest and longest running pest control companies in the world, with many branches across the United States and 22 other countries. With the amount of experience the company has, you can see why Terminix is one of the top companies in the country.
Terminix has both one-off extermination services and routine pest control. In addition, every contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. Their service also comes with follow-up visits and annual inspections for guaranteed results.
Orkin has been in the business for over 100 years. It has positive consumer reviews and competent pest control specialists who all complete 160 hours of training.
Pests Orkin deals with includes yellow jackets, bees, crickets, mice, rats, ticks, moths, fleas, flies, centipedes, and more. Orkin’s typical pest control plan is also quarterly, so your home will be treated several times during the year.
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of experience in the pest control industry. The company provides professional pest control treatments for homeowners and business owners. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of several local pest control branches like J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator.
It helps with 36 of the most common pests including flies, spiders, rats, moths, bed bugs, cockroaches, mice, and more. After the initial inspection and treatment of your property, a technician will service your property every quarter.
Not all pest control providers are identical when it comes to reputation, knowledge, and competence. It's important to do your research to determine the right option for your specific pest problem. Focus on these key factors when selecting 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 bed bugs, termites, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should thoroughly describe on their website its area of expertise.
When selecting a pest control company, 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. Question the company about the training hours required for its technicians as well as its policies for continuing education.
Take some time to read online reviews on Google and Yelp before committing to a pest control provider. This can help you determine for yourself whether the company consistently provides quality service and positive experiences. Also check the Better Business Bureau for any complaints. Ask the provider whether technicians receive continual training to stay current on the most up-to-date pest control methods. When you select a company from our list of Redondo Beach's best pest control, you can rest easy knowing 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, and if you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need more potent chemical treatments. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, any pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control companies typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. The guarantees mean the company will return and re-treat for free if you still have pests in your home following the initial visit. One-time treatments don't typically include reservice guarantees.
After picking your top exterminators, contact each one with questions such as these:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control companies using these questions. This will allow you to choose a qualified provider to effectively manage your pest situation at a fair price.
There are a variety of pests in Redondo Beach, ranging from harmless bothers to ones that can damage your home. To help you prepare for the most commonly seen pests, we reviewed online discussions and compiled a list of the ones mentioned the most.
The top pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They help with all common pests, have many locations, and have been in the industry for several decades.
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 returning.
The key to finding the right exterminator for you is to contact multiple companies and get estimates from them. You should also make sure you read reviews to check their reputation and customer satisfaction.
Many Redondo Beach homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control generally costs $40 to $70 per 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 pest control companies 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 infestation is resolved.
