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 identified the top pest control companies by comparing customer reviews, state availability, costs, and more.
Here’s how the top pest control companies in Fernandina Beach ranked:
Terminix’s headquarters are in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries worldwide. It has also been in the industry for about 100 years. Terminix has received several awards for its service, including Angie's List Super Service Award 2017, The Business Journal’s FAST 50, and NCPMA’s Technician of the Year.
Terminix treats dozens of pests in Fernandina Beach, and if you’re not 100% satisfied with the service you receive 30 days after treatment, you can get a refund. Terminix’s general pest regimen includes a home inspection and preliminary treatment, followed by three seasonal treatments over the course of a year.
Started 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. Due to its large network, Orkin can provide next-day, or sometimes even same-day, service.
Orkin will send a pest control expert to inspect your property to identify issues and develop treatment plan. After the initial visit, your technician will follow up regularly to make sure that the pests have not returned. If they have, your local technicians can help
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of experience in the pest control industry. The company provides innovative pest control solutions all around the world. This large service group is the parent company of several regional pest control companies in North America. These include J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, which means your pest control specialist will focus on both eliminating current pests and preventing future infestations. Rentokil uses treatments that are safe for your pets and children.
Not all pest control providers are the same when it comes to reputation, proficiency, and capability. It's important to do your research to determine the most suitable option for your specific pest problem. Here are the key factors to consider when hiring a pest control professional:
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 selecting a pest control company, look for technicians that are licensed by the state and certified in pest control methods by industry associations such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). Obtaining these credentials demonstrates that a technician has adequate training. Question the company about its policies for continuing education and the total training hours required for technicians.
Take some time to read online reviews on Google and Yelp before scheduling a pest control appointment. This can help you verify 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 ongoing regular training to stay current on the most recent pest control methods. When you select an exterminator from our list of the top pest control in Fernandina Beach, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
Search for providers offering “green” accreditations to get more natural, eco-friendly pest control. You can also ask about humane trapping programs that don't harm pests like mice or snakes. Keep in mind that more potent methods might be a better option for significant infestations. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Reliable pest control professionals typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. These guarantees mean the company will make another visit and re-treat your home at no cost if there are still pests after the first treatment. One-time services may not come with reservice guarantees.
After choosing your top pest management services, reach out to each one and ask questions such as these:
Assess potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will allow you to pick a qualified provider to effectively take care of your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
It's important to know which pests you might encounter in Fernandina Beach. We examined around 10 million posts on social media to identify which pests were causing the most trouble for residents.
The top pest control providers are Orkin and Terminix. They can treat all common pests, service locations nationwide, and have been in business for a long time.
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 house.
The key to finding the right pest control company for you is to get in touch with multiple companies and get estimates from them. You should also make sure to read reviews to check their reputation and customer satisfaction.
Pest control involves getting rid of unwanted insects like bees, fleas, and other unwanted bugs or animals from your property. When you hire a pest control company, a professional will inspect your property. Then they will use various methods to get rid of the pests and stop them from returning, such as chemical or natural sprays, bait, and traps.
Many Fernandina Beach 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 per visit. To determine exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several companies for a quote.
We recommend quarterly pest control treatments, or even bi-monthly in Fernandina Beach, where the heat can make pests more prevalent. For more serious infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments for the first three to six months.
