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 considering factors like customer satisfaction, industry experience, coverage, types of pest control treatments offered, and more.
Here’s how the top companies in Cuba ranked:
Terminix’s headquarters are in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries around the globe. It has also been in business for almost 100 years. With this breadth of experience, it’s easy to see why Terminix is a top choice for many homeowners.
Terminix exterminates all kinds of pest issues for homeowners and business owners. These include spiders, opossums, rodents, ants, roaches, raccoons, and termites. In addition to pest control, Terminix offers other services, including attic insulation, moisture control, home disinfection services, and mechanical exclusion.
If you need fast pest control service in Cuba, Orkin could be a good company for you. Since 1901, Orkin has grown to be one of the largest pest control companies in the country. It has positive customer reviews and well-trained exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin offers a professional property inspection to identify problem pests and areas and develop an appropriate treatment plan. Each contract with Orkin comes with a 30-day guarantee. If initial treatments are ineffective, your pest control specialist will come back for another visit.
Rentokil, a business service group, is the world's largest and most widely recognized pest control company, representing hundreds of brands worldwide. This large service group is the parent company of several regional pest control providers in North America. These include Western Exterminator, Presto-X, and J.C. Ehrlich.
Rentokil and its partners handle the following pests: flies, ants, bed bugs, cockroaches, bees, crickets, spiders, mosquitoes, moths, and wasps. The company guarantees satisfaction with its treatments. If you still have pests after service, Rentokil will visit again until the issue is resolved.
Pest control companies vary in credibility, proficiency, and capability. It's important to research businesses to find the right fit for your pest problem. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that is able to handle the type of pest you have, whether it’s bed bugs, termites, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should be able to provide an overview of how they treat your type of pest.
When choosing a pest control provider, look for technicians with certifications in pest control methods from respected industry associations, like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), on top of proper state licensing. Solid credentials show that the technicians have completed proper training. Also inquire about required training hours and continuing education.
Before booking an appointment, take the time to read online reviews on sites such as Google or Yelp to see which providers have a proven track record of providing effective service and positive customer experiences. Also check for any complaints via the Better Business Bureau. Inquire about the ongoing training the company’s technicians receive to ensure they stay up to date on current pest control best practices. When you choose a provider from our list of Cuba'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 offering “green” accreditation. For bigger animals such as mice or snakes, ask if a provider offers humane trapping and relocation. Bear in mind natural options may not work as well for significant infestations. If you have a substantial pest problem, you may need more potent traditional methods. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control providers usually offer service warranties for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a company will come back to re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the initial treatment. One-off treatments may not include these reservice guarantees.
Once you have narrowed down your top pest management companies, contact each one with questions such as:
Take the time to thoroughly assess pest control companies using these questions. This will allow you to select a qualified provider to effectively handle your pest situation at a fair price.
Cuba is home to various pests, from insects to wildlife. We compiled a list of the most common pests in the city by examining what pests were often mentioned on social media platforms.
The best pest control providers are Terminix and Orkin. They cover all common pests, service locations all around the country, and have been in business for decades.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is getting a pest control company to come to your house once every quarter. Spraying your property regularly will stop insects and other wildlife from coming back.
Pest control chemicals are safe but must 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 need to stay out of your home after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Typically, you should stay away from your home for two to four hours after spraying.
Whether you should do DIY pest control or hire an exterminator depends on your situation. You’ll want to take into consideration factors like the size of the infestation, how much the pest control will cost, and what chemicals need to be used. Additionally, you may want to also look into professional pest control if you're concerned about safety or pets.
In a town like Cuba, where the cost of living is really high compared to other cities, the cost of pest control is most likely a concern. The cost of pest control depends on several factors, such as what type of pests are infesting your home and how bad the infestation is. A single visit can cost between $300 and $500, but a quarterly treatment plan is usually cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
We recommend quarterly pest control, or even bi-monthly if needed. For larger infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments for the first three to six months.
