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:
When ranking these pest control companies, we considered several factors such as coverage, customer service, industry experience, types of pest control treatments offered, and more.
This is how the top pest control companies ranked in Braselton:
Terminix has 300 branches in over 22 countries and has been in business for about 100 years. It uses the latest technology in pest control to get rid of pests anywhere you see them.
Terminix offers both one-time extermination services and seasonal pest control. In addition, every contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. Terminix’s general pest regimen consists of a home inspection and preliminary treatment, followed by three additional treatments during the year.
Orkin has been in the business for over 100 years. Its exterminators have to undergo 160 hours of training. Additionally, due to its big network, it can usually offer next-day — or even same-day — pest control.
Orkin’s typical pest control service plan is its annual pest control contract. Each pest control contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. If your pest problem isn't handled, your exterminator will return for another visit.
Founded in 1925, Rentokil has almost a century’s worth of experience exterminating pests. This large service group is the parent company of several regional pest control providers in North America. These include J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil and its partners handle the following pests: cockroaches, ants, flies, spiders, mosquitoes, moths, wasps, bees, crickets, and bed bugs. Its services include preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Not all pest control businesses are the same in reputation, skill set, and competence. Researching businesses helps you identify the right choice for your pest issue. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control provider:
It's recommended to look for a pest control company that focuses their business on the pest you have, like rodents, roaches, bed bugs, or termites. The company should provide an overview of how they treat your type of pest.
When selecting a pest control provider, look for technicians that hold certifications from respected industry associations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to proper state licensing. These credentials indicate that the technicians have completed proper training. Also inquire about continuing education policies and total training hours.
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 continual training to stay current on the latest pest control methods. When you select a company from our list of Braselton's best pest control, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer more eco-friendly and natural pest control solutions, look for providers that have "green" accreditations. If you’re dealing with larger pests, such as mice or squirrels invading your attic, you can also inquire about humane catch and release methods. Keep in mind that natural pest control options may be less effective; consider the traditional route if dealing with a serious infestation. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control providers typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. The guarantees mean the provider will come back and re-treat at no cost if your home still has pests after the initial visit. One-time treatments don't typically include reservice guarantees.
Once you have found your top pest management companies, reach out to each one with these questions:
Evaluate potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will enable you to select a qualified provider to effectively take care of your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
Braselton is home to various pests, from insects to wildlife. For an idea of the most prevalent pests in the city, we examined the pests discussed in around 10 million social media posts.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They're highly regarded 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 two or three months. Spraying your property regularly will stop insects and animals from returning.
To find the right pest control company for you, the key is to take time to do thorough research. We recommend getting estimates from several companies and looking at reviews to help determine which company is the right one for you.
Many Braselton homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically 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 providers for an estimate.
For apartments and homes, quarterly or even bi-monthly pest control treatments are advisable. If you have a more serious infestation, however, you may need to get monthly treatments for a few months until the issue is resolved.
