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 has narrowed down the top pest control experts to help you find the right provider for you. We considered customer reviews, pest control treatments offered, state availability, costs, contracts, and more.
This is how they 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 multiple awards for its service, including Pest Control Technology Magazine’s Top 100 Pest Control Companies, The Business Journal’s FAST 50, and Triad's Best Exterminator.
Terminix has both one-off extermination services and routine pest control. Additionally, every contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. In addition to pest control, Terminix provides services, such as attic insulation, home disinfection services, mechanical exclusion, and moisture control.
Orkin Pest Control’s headquarters are in Atlanta, Georgia. It is one of the longest-running pest control companies with a large network of branches. Its pest control specialists undergo 160 hours of training. Plus, due to its big network, it can usually offer next-day — or even same-day — visits.
Orkin offers a professional property inspection to identify issues and draw up a suitable treatment plan. After the initial visit, your technician will follow up regularly to ensure that the pests have not returned. If they have, your local technicians can help
Rentokil has been helping homeowners exterminate common pests for over 90 years. The large brand owns the North American pest control companies Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both getting rid of current pests and preventing future infestations. Its treatments are child- and pet-friendly.
Pest control providers aren't all equal when it comes to credibility, qualifications, and capability. It’s important to research providers to find the right one for your specific circumstance. Here are the key factors to consider when selecting a pest control professional:
It's best to choose a pest control company that can effectively address your specific problem, whether it's bed bugs, termites, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should have clearly laid out its expertise with your specific pest.
The ideal pest management provider will employ technicians that have state licenses and are certified in pest control methods by groups like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). These credentials show that the technicians have completed proper training. You'll also want to inquire with each company about ongoing education for their employees.
Before booking an appointment, take the time to read online reviews on sites such as Google or Yelp to see which providers have a proven track record of providing positive experiences and effective services. Also look for any complaints via the Better Business Bureau. Inquire about ongoing training at the company as well as how its technicians stay up to date on current pest control best practices. When you choose a company from our list of the top pest control in Leisure City, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer natural pest control methods, look for companies with “green” accreditation. For larger pests like mice or snakes, ask if a provider offers gentle catch and release programs. But keep in mind natural options may not work as well for major infestations. If you have a considerable pest problem, you may need stronger traditional solutions. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Leading pest control provides typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean if pests remain after the initial treatment, the company will come back and re-treat your home for free until the infestation is taken care of. One-time treatments may not come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have narrowed down your top pest control providers, contact each one and ask questions such as:
Analyze 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.
Different pests show up in different locations. In Leisure City, there are a few different ones that residents may deal with. We reviewed around 10 million online conversations to figure out which pests people in different places had problems with the most.
Our top picks for pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They're well-respected in the industry and help get rid of all common pests.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is having a pest control company come to your house once every quarter. Regularly spraying your property will stop insects and animals from returning.
To find the right pest control company for you, the key is to take time to do diligent research. We recommend obtaining quotes from multiple companies and reading reviews to help determine which company is the best for you.
There are some pests you can control yourself. For example, if you see a few ants or a stray spider, chances are you can get rid of it on your own. But some situations warrant bringing in the professionals. If you have an out-of-control infestation, you aren’t sure what the pest is, or would like preventative pest control, you should hire a pest control company.
Many Leisure City 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 per visit. To determine exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several pest control companies for a quote.
If you already have a serious pest infestation, you should get pest control as soon as possible. However, if you’re just interested in preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional come spray your home is in the spring before colony numbers get too high in the hotter part of the year. However, it’s never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or in other seasons and see effective results.
