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 narrowed it down to these pest control providers by analyzing contracts, pest control treatments offered, state availability, customer reviews, costs, and more.
Here’s how the top pest control companies in Perry ranked:
Terminix is headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries worldwide. It has also been in business for nearly 100 years. Terminix has received several 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-time extermination services and seasonal pest control. Additionally, every contract comes with a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. Along with pest control, Terminix offers other services, such as moisture control, mechanical exclusion, home disinfection services, and attic insulation.
Started in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has grown to be one of the most trusted in the pest control industry. Its exterminators must undergo 160 hours of training. And, because of its big network, it can often offer next-day — or even same-day — pest control.
Pests Orkin helps with includes bees, flies, wasps, fleas, carpenter ants, termites, mice, earwigs, cockroaches, moths, and more. Orkin’s typical pest control service is also seasonal, meaning your home will be treated several times over the course of a year.
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of experience. The company provides expert pest control solutions for homeowners and business owners. 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 can protect your home from the common pests in Perry, including wasps, mosquitoes, spiders, flies, moths, cockroaches, crickets, bees, bed bugs, and ants. Its services cover preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Not all pest control services are identical when it comes to credibility, knowledge, and effectiveness. It's important to do your research to determine the best option for your specific pest problem. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control provider:
Look for a pest control company that has experience treating the type of pest you're dealing with, whether it's termites, bed bugs, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should thoroughly describe on their website its area of expertise.
The ideal pest control company will employ technicians that have state licenses and are certified in pest control methods by associations like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). These credentials demonstrate that the technicians have received proper training. You'll also want to question each company about continuing training for their employees.
Take some time to read online reviews on Google and Yelp before scheduling a pest control appointment. This can help you confirm 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 recent pest control methods. When you choose an exterminator from our list of Perry'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 natural pest control methods, look for providers that advertise “green” certifications. For bigger animals such as mice or snakes, ask if a provider offers humane trapping and relocation. But keep in mind natural options may not work as well for significant infestations. If you have a considerable pest problem, you may need more effective traditional methods. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, any pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reliable pest control companies typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. These guarantees mean the provider will make another visit and re-treat your home at no cost if there are still pests after the first treatment. One-time services may not include reservice guarantees.
Once you have compiled a list of a few highly reviewed exterminator services, talk to each of them and come prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control providers using these questions. This will help you choose the right provider to safely and successfully get rid of your pest problem at a fair price.
A variety of pests can find their way into Perry homes. Some are just harmless, but others can damage your home and your health. All of them can cause anxiety. We examined around 10 million online conversations to determine the most common pests in the city.
Our top picks for pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They're highly regarded in the industry and cover all common pests.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is getting a pest control company to come to your house once every quarter. Getting your property sprayed regularly will stop insects and animals from returning.
To find the right pest control company for you, the key is to take your time and do diligent research. We recommend getting estimates from several companies and reading through reviews to help figure out which company best fits your needs.
A pest control company exterminates unwanted insects or animals that have infested a property. Pest control also includes preventative measures taken to stop said pests from returning, which can happen at any point in a warm place like Perry.
Many Perry homeowners wonder about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control generally costs $40 to $70 per 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 pest control providers for a quote.
Spring is the best time for preventative pest control. The reason is 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.
