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:
We narrowed down the top pest control companies by looking at factors like customer satisfaction, types of pest control treatments offered, industry experience, coverage, and more.
Here’s how Cromwell’s top providers ranked:
Terminix is one of the biggest and longest running pest control companies in the world, with many branches across the United States and 22 other countries. It utilizes the latest technology in pest control to get rid of pests no matter where they are.
Terminix helps with dozens of pests in Cromwell, and it offers a 30-day guarantee. Terminix offers a free inspection. A qualified technician will assess your situation and provide a suitable control plan.
Founded in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has grown to be one of the most reputable in the pest control industry. It has excellent consumer reviews and skilled exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin’s most popular pest control service plan is its annual pest control contract. Orkin’s general pest control plan is also seasonal, so your home will be treated several times over the course of a year.
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of experience in the pest control industry. The company provides innovative pest control treatments all around the world. The well-known brand owns the North American pest control companies J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil and its partners take care of the following pests: wasps, bees, crickets, ants, cockroaches, spiders, moths, flies, mosquitoes, and bed bugs. The company guarantees satisfaction with its treatments. If you still have pests after service, Rentokil will visit again until the issue is resolved.
Pest control providers vary in reputation, expertise, 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 company:
Look for a pest control company that has experience handling 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 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). Obtaining these credentials shows that the technicians have adequate training. Inquire with the company about the training hours required for its technicians as well as its policies for continuing education.
We advise looking at customer reviews before scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and similar sites will show whether a company consistently provides quality service and a good customer experience. Also check for any Better Business Bureau complaints that have been filed. Ask about the kind of ongoing education technicians receive to stay current on best pest control practices. When you select a provider from our list of Cromwell's best pest control, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer natural pest control methods, look for providers that advertise “green” certifications. For larger pests like mice or snakes, ask if a provider offers humane trapping and relocation. But keep in mind natural options may not work as well for major infestations. If you have a moderate to serious pest problem, you may need stronger traditional solutions. No matter your approach to pest control, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Reliable pest control companies normally offer service guarantees for recurring plans. These guarantees mean the provider will come back and re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the first treatment. One-time services may not include reservice guarantees.
Once you have found your top pest management companies, reach out to each one to ask these questions:
Evaluate potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will allow you to choose the right provider to effectively solve your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
A variety of pests like to find their way into Cromwell residences. Some are relatively harmless, but others can damage your home and carry diseases. All of them can cause anxiety. We examined around 10 million social media conversations to identify which pests were causing the most trouble for residents.
The top pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They cover all common pests, have many locations, and have been in the industry for a long time.
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 animals from returning.
Whether you should do DIY pest control or hire an exterminator depends on your situation. You’ll want to consider factors like how much the pest control will cost, the size of the infestation, and what chemicals need to be used. Additionally, you may want to also look into professional pest control if you're concerned about safety.
Many Cromwell homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control usually 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 contacting several pest control providers for an estimate.
We recommend quarterly pest control treatments, or even bi-monthly if needed. For more serious infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments for the first three to six months.
