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:
We narrowed down the top pest control providers by comparing factors like types of pest control treatments offered, industry experience, customer satisfaction, coverage, and more.
This is how the top pest control companies ranked in Hailey:
Terminix is one of the biggest and oldest pest control companies in the world, with many branches across the United States and 22 other countries. The company offers effective pest control treatments that are safe for your family.
Terminix helps with dozens of pests in Hailey, and it offers a 30-day guarantee. Terminix’s typical pest regimen includes a home inspection and preliminary treatment, with three additional treatments over the course of a year.
With more than 100 years of experience, Orkin is one of the largest pest control companies in the country. Its exterminators must complete 160 hours of training. And, due to its large network, it can often provide next-day — or even same-day — service.
Orkin’s most popular pest control plan is its annual pest control contract. Each contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. If initial treatments are ineffective, your technician will come back for another visit.
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of experience in the pest control industry. The company provides innovative pest control solutions all around the world. This large service group is the parent company of several regional pest control companies in North America. These include Western Exterminator, Presto-X, and J.C. Ehrlich.
Rentokil deals with the common pests in Hailey, including flies, mosquitoes, bees, moths, wasps, ants, crickets, bed bugs, cockroaches, and spiders. The company guarantees satisfaction with its treatments. If you still have pests after service, Rentokil will make as many visits as needed to resolve the issue.
Pest control companies vary in reputation, expertise, and skill. It's important to research businesses to find the right fit for your pest problem. Focus on these key factors when selecting a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that can address the type of pest you have, whether it’s bed bugs, termites, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should be able to explain their approach for treating your type of pest.
When selecting a pest control company, 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 demonstrates that a technician has adequate training. Ask the company about the training hours required for its technicians as well as its policies for continuing education.
Read online reviews on Google and Yelp before committing to a pest control provider. This can help you verify 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 consistent training to stay current on the most recent pest control methods. When you choose an exterminator from our list of the top pest control in Hailey, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer more natural, eco-friendly pest control solutions, look for providers that have "green" accreditations. If you’re dealing with larger pests, such as mice or other rodents coming inside, you can also inquire about humane catch and release methods. Bear in mind that natural pest control options may be less effective; consider a more traditional route for a more serious infestation. Regardless of what methods you choose, any pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to 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 provider will make another visit and re-treat your home for free until the infestation is handled. One-time treatments might not have reservice guarantees.
After choosing your top exterminators, contact each one with questions such as these:
Take the time to thoroughly analyze pest control companies using these questions. This will allow you to choose the right provider to effectively manage your pest situation at a fair price.
Hailey is home to several pests, from insects to wildlife. We analyzed around 10 million social media conversations to identify which pests were causing the most trouble for residents.
Our top picks for pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They're respected in the industry and help get rid of all common pests.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is getting a pest control company to come to your home once every two or three months. Regularly spraying your property will stop insects and animals from returning.
Pest control chemicals are safe but have to be handled by a professional. If you have any questions 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 house after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Typically, you should stay away from your home for two to four hours after spraying.
There are some pests you can control yourself. For example, if you see a few ants or a stray spider, chances are you can take care of it on your own. But some pest infestations warrant bringing in the professionals. If you have a big infestation, you don’t know what the pest is, or would like preventative pest control, you should hire a pest control company.
In a town like Hailey, where the cost of living is relatively low compared to other cities, the cost of pest control may be a concern. The cost of pest control depends on several factors, including what type of pests are troubling you and how bad the infestation is. A single visit can cost between $300 and $500, but a quarterly treatment plan is typically cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
We advise quarterly pest control treatments, or even bi-monthly if you'd like more protection. For larger infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments for the first three to six months.
