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 has narrowed down the best pest control experts to help you find the right provider for you. We considered contracts, state availability, pest control treatments offered, customer reviews, costs, and more.
Here’s how Naranja’s top companies ranked:
Terminix is one of the top four pest control companies worldwide, and it has been helping homeowners and businesses with their pest problems for over 90 years. It uses the latest innovations in pest control to rid your home of pests anywhere you see them.
Terminix is widely known for its specialty termite services, but they deal with much more than just that. Their other services include: cockroaches, spiders, ticks, mosquitoes, ants, rodents, and wildlife control such as skunks, raccoons, squirrels, opossums, and more. Their service also includes follow-up visits and annual inspections to help keep your home pest-free.
Orkin has been in the industry for over 100 years. Its exterminators need to complete 160 hours of training. Additionally, due to its big network, it can usually provide next-day — or even same-day — visits.
Orkin will send a pest control expert to inspect your property to identify potential problems and draw up an appropriate treatment plan. After the initial treatment, your Orkin exterminator will follow up to make sure the pests haven’t returned. If they have, your local technicians can assist.
Rentokil is a respected name in pest control, with branches across the globe and close to a century of experience in the industry. This large service group is the parent company of several top regional pest control providers in North America. These include Presto-X, J.C. Ehrlich, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil and its partners handle the following pests: cockroaches, bees, crickets, bed bugs, spiders, moths, mosquitoes, wasps, ants, and flies. Depending on the city, the pest control company may cover wildlife like rodents, snakes, and birds.
Pest control companies aren't all equal when it comes to credibility, knowledge, and competence. It’s important to research services to find the right one for your specific situation. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control professional:
Choose a pest control company that can effectively address your specific problem, whether it's termites, bed bugs, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should provide detailed explanations of its expertise with your specific pest.
When selecting a pest control provider, 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). Having these credentials shows that the technicians have adequate training. Question the company about its policies for continuing education and the total training hours required for technicians.
We advise checking out customer reviews prior to 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 the latest pest control techniques and treatment methods. When you choose a professional from our list of Naranja's best pest control, 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” accredited solutions. You can also ask about trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or raccoons nesting nearby. Keep in mind that 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 that are classified as greater than minimal risk must be registered with the EPA.
Leading pest control companies typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean if pests remain after the initial treatment, the company will make another visit and re-treat your home for free until the infestation is handled. One-time treatments may not come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have determined your top pest control providers, contact each one with these questions:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control companies using these questions. This will help you select the right provider to safely and successfully eliminate your pest problem at a fair price.
There are various types of pests in Naranja, ranging from harmless bothers to ones that can damage your home. To give you an idea of the most common pests in the city, we reviewed the pests discussed in around 10 million posts on various social media sites.
The best pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They help with all common pests, have many locations, and have been in the industry for decades.
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 animals from coming inside your house.
For the most part, pest control chemicals are safe. That being said, they have to be handled by a trained exterminator to ensure they’re used properly, which is especially important if you have young children. After your house has been sprayed, the exterminator will recommend staying out of your home for a certain period of time. This is usually 2 to 4 hours, but can be a maximum of 24 hours.
The key to finding the right exterminator for you is to get in touch with several companies and get estimates from them. You should also be sure you read reviews to check their reputation and customer satisfaction.
Many Naranja 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 a visit. To figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several pest control providers for an estimate.
We advise quarterly pest control, or even bi-monthly in Naranja, where pests can be more common because of the heat. For more serious infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments for the first three to six months.
