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 best pest control experts to help you find the right provider for you. We considered pest control treatments offered, costs, customer reviews, state availability, contracts, and more.
Here’s how Naples’s top providers ranked:
Terminix is one of the biggest and oldest pest control companies in the world, with branches in 45 states and 22 other countries. Terminix has received numerous 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 is widely known for its specialty termite services, but they handle much more than just that. Their other services include: ticks, spiders, cockroaches, mosquitoes, rodents, ants, and wildlife control such as squirrels, opossums, raccoons, skunks, and more. Terminix will inspect your home for free. A qualified pest control expert will take a look at your situation and give you a suitable control plan.
With more than 100 years of experience, Orkin is one of the most trustworthy pest control companies in the country. Its exterminators have to undergo 160 hours of training. Plus, because of its big network, it can usually provide next-day — or even same-day — visits.
Orkin can protect your home from many common pests, including cockroaches, ants, silverfish, and spiders. Orkin can schedule regular follow-up visits. Also, if you have recurrent problems or any other immediate pest control needs, you can contact Orkin’s customer service line.
Rentokil is a well-known name in pest control, with branches across the globe and almost a century of experience in the industry. Rentokil is the parent company of top North American pest control providers including Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X, which provide individual services.
Rentokil provides integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both exterminating existing pests and preventing future infestations. Rentokil’s services cover preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Not all pest control companies are the identical in credibility, qualifications, and effectiveness. Vetting services helps you identify the right choice for your pest issue. Here are the key factors to consider when selecting a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that primarily handles the pest you have, like roaches, bed bugs, termites, or rodents. The company should provide an overview of how they treat your type of pest.
When choosing a pest control company, look for technicians with certifications in pest control methods from respected industry associations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to proper state licensing. These credentials show that the technicians have completed adequate training. Also ask about required training hours and continuing education.
Take some time to read online reviews on Google and Yelp before committing to a pest control provider. This can help you determine for yourself 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 up-to-date pest control methods. When you select a company from our list of the top pest control in Naples, 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 offering “green” certifications. For bigger animals such as mice or squirrels, 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 moderate to serious pest problem, you may need more potent traditional treatments. Regardless of what methods you choose, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control companies typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean the provider 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 don't typically include reservice guarantees.
Once you have determined your top exterminators, reach out to each one to ask these questions:
Analyze potential pest control companies using these questions. This will help you select the right provider to safely and effectively get rid of your pest problem at a reasonable price.
Naples is home to a number of pests, from wildlife to insects. For an idea of the most common pests in the city, we examined the pests talked about in around 10 million posts on various social media sites.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies in Naples are Terminix and Orkin. They're well known 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 home once every quarter or every two to three months. Getting your property sprayed regularly will stop insects and other wildlife from coming back.
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.
Pest control involves exterminating unwanted insects like bees, fleas, and other unwanted bugs or animals from your home. When you hire a pest control company, a professional will come and inspect your property. Then they will use various techniques to get rid of the pests and prevent them from returning, such as chemical or natural sprays, bait, and traps.
Many Naples homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control usually costs $40 to $70 a visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 per visit. To figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several providers for an estimate.
If you already have a serious infestation, you should seek pest control as soon as possible. However, if you’d just like 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.
