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 team at Today's Homeowner narrowed it down to these pest control companies by comparing costs, state availability, pest control treatments offered, customer reviews, contracts, and more.
Here’s how we ranked them:
Terminix ranks as one of the top four pest control companies in the world, and it has been helping homeowners and businesses stay pest-free for over 90 years. It uses the latest pest control techniques to exterminate insects and unwanted wildlife wherever they are.
Terminix’s specialty termite services are their most widely known service, but they help with much more than just that. Their other services include: mosquitoes, cockroaches, ticks, spiders, rodents, ants, and wildlife control such as raccoons, squirrels, opossums, skunks, and more. Their service also comes with follow-up visits and annual inspections to help keep your home pest-free.
Orkin has been in the industry for over 100 years. Its pest control specialists complete 160 hours of training. And, due to its big network, it can often offer next-day — or even same-day — pest control.
Orkin’s most popular pest control plan is its annual pest control contract. Orkin can set up regular follow-up visits. Also, if you have recurring pest problems or any other immediate pest control needs, you can contact Orkin’s customer service.
Founded in 1925, Rentokil has nearly 100 years’ worth of experience handling pests. This large service group is the parent company of several regional pest control providers in North America. These include Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both exterminating existing pests and preventing future infestations. The company has a satisfaction guarantee for its treatments. If you still have pests after service, Rentokil will visit again until the issue is resolved.
Pest control services vary in reputation, proficiency, and effectiveness. It's important to research businesses to find the right fit for your pest problem. Here are the key factors to consider when choosing a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that is able to handle the type of pest you have, whether it’s bed bugs, termites, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should be able to describe 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 indicates 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.
Read through reviews on Google, Yelp, and similar sites before booking a pest control appointment. Confirm through customer feedback that the company reliably provides effective service and a positive customer experience. Also check for any Better Business Bureau complaints that have been filed. Ask whether technicians receive consistent education on the newest and most advanced pest control treatments. When you select a professional from our list of the top pest control in Pueblo West, 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 humane catch and release methods for 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, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control professionals usually offer service warranties for continuing plans. The guarantees mean that a provider will make another visit to re-treat your home free of charge if pests remain after the initial treatment. One-off treatments may not include these reservice guarantees.
Once you have reduced your options to your top pest control providers, reach out to each one with questions such as:
Carefully review potential pest control companies using these questions. This will help you choose the best provider to safely and effectively resolve your pest problem at a reasonable price.
Pueblo West is home to several pests, from insects to wildlife. We reviewed around 10 million online discussions to uncover the most common pests invading local homes.
Our top picks for pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They're well known in the industry and help get rid of 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 other wildlife from coming inside your home.
Pest control chemicals are safe but must be handled by a professional. If you have any questions about the safety of the chemicals — such as if they're safe around children and pets — and how long you need to stay out of your home after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Typically, you should remain outside your home for two to four hours after spraying.
A pest control company exterminates unwanted insects or animals that have infested your home. Pest control also includes preventative measures taken to stop those pests from coming back, which can happen at any point in Pueblo West, but usually during the warm summers.
Many Pueblo West homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically costs $40 to $70 per 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 providers for an estimate.
If you already have a serious infestation, you should get pest control as soon as possible. However, if you just want preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional spray your home is in the spring before colony numbers get too high when it's warmer. However, it’s never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or any other season and see effective results.
