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’s experts narrowed down the top pest control companies by comparing customer reviews, costs, state availability, and more.
This is how the top pest control companies ranked in Spring Valley:
Terminix is one of the biggest and longest running pest control companies in the world, with 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 can help you with all kinds of pest issues for residential and commercial customers. These include spiders, opossums, ants, roaches, rodents, termites, and raccoons. Terminix’s typical pest regimen consists of a home inspection and preliminary treatment, followed by three additional treatments during the year.
Orkin has been in the industry for over 100 years. Its pest control specialists need to undergo 160 hours of training. Additionally, because of its large network, it can usually provide next-day — or even same-day — pest control.
Orkin’s most common pest control service plan is its annual pest control contract. After your initial visit, your pest control specialist will follow up regularly to ensure that the pests have stayed away for good. If they have, your local technicians can assist
Rentokil, a service group, is the world's largest pest control company, representing hundreds of brands worldwide. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of quite a few regional pest control providers like Presto-X, Western Exterminator, and J.C. Ehrlich.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, which means your pest control specialist will focus on both getting rid of current pests and preventing future infestations. Its services consist of preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Not all pest control services are equal when it comes to reputation, expertise, and capability. 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 hiring 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 roaches, bed bugs, termites, rodents, or something else. The company should clearly lay out its area of expertise.
Look for pest control companies that employ technicians with certifications in pest control methods from qualified industry groups, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to state licensing. Holding the proper credentials indicates that the technicians have received adequate training. Also ask about regular training updates.
Read online reviews on Google and Yelp before scheduling a pest control appointment. This can help you confirm 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 consistent training to stay current on the most recent pest control methods. When you choose an exterminator from our list of Spring Valley'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 providers that specialize in “green” accredited solutions. You can also ask about humane catch and release methods for larger pests like mice or squirrels in your attic. However, natural options may be less effective for serious infestations, and if you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need stronger traditional methods. Regardless of what methods you choose, any pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control professionals typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. The guarantees mean the company will make another visit and re-treat at no cost if you still have pests in your home after the initial visit. One-time treatments may not come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have determined your top exterminators, reach out to each one with these questions:
Thoroughly evaluate potential pest control providers using these questions. This will help you choose the best provider to safely and effectively eliminate your pest problem at a reasonable price.
Spring Valley is home to various pests, from wildlife to insects. We studied around 10 million posts on social media to uncover the most common pests plaguing local homes.
The top pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They help with all common pests, have locations nationwide, and have been in business for several decades.
Hiring a pest control company and getting a professional to spray your property every quarter is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and animals from coming inside your home.
Pest control chemicals are safe but have to be handled by a professional. If you have any questions about the safety of the chemicals — such as if they're safe around young children and pets — or are wondering how long you have to 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.
To find the right pest control company for you, the key is to take time to research your options thoroughly. We recommend getting quotes from several companies and reading through reviews to help determine which company is the best for you.
Many Spring Valley 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 providers for an estimate.
Spring is the best time for proactive pest control. This is because nests and colony numbers will grow much larger when it's hotter, so pest control in the spring can help prevent your home from getting too many pests later.
