Today's Homeowner looks at dozens of datapoints on pest 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:
Looking for a pest control company with nation-wide expertise? Here are our top picks:
Terminix's headquarters are in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries globally. It has also been in business 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 NCPMA's Technician of the Year.
Terminix's specialty termite services are their most widely known service, but they handle much more than just that. Their other services include: ticks, cockroaches, spiders, rodents, ants, mosquitoes, and wildlife control including skunks, squirrels, opossums, raccoons, and more. Terminix's general pest control includes a home inspection and first treatment, with three seasonal treatments over the course of a year.
If you need fast service in Westchester, consider Orkin for your pest control needs. Founded in 1901, Orkin has become one of the largest pest control companies in the country. Because of its large network, Orkin can provide same-day or next-day service.
Orkin offers an inspection of your property by expert pest control technicians to identify potential problems and outline a suitable treatment plan. Orkin's most common pest control plan is also quarterly, which means your home will be treated several times over the course of a year.
Westchester is home to several pests, from wildlife to insects. We examined around 10 million online conversations to identify the pests that were causing the most trouble for residents.
Our top picks for pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They're well-respected in the industry and cover all common pests.
Pest control chemicals are safe but need to be handled by a professional. If you have any questions or concerns about the safety of the chemicals — such as if they're safe around children and pets — or are wondering how long you should stay out of your home after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Typically, you should remain outside your home for two to four hours after spraying.
In a town like Westchester where the cost of living is noticeably high compared to other cities, the cost of pest control is most likely a concern. How much pest control costs depends on several factors, such as what kind of pests are troubling you and how bad the infestation is. A single visit can cost between $300 and $500, while a quarterly treatment plan is usually cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
Spring is the best time for preventative pest control. This is because nests and colony numbers will get much higher when it's hotter, so pest control in the spring can help prevent you from getting too many pests later.
