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:
Our team at Today's Homeowner identified the top pest control providers by comparing state availability, customer reviews, costs, and more.
Here’s how Danville’s top providers ranked:
Terminix ranks as one of the top four pest control companies worldwide, and it has been helping homeowners and businesses with their pest problems for over 90 years. Terminix has received numerous awards for its service, including Pest Control Technology Magazine’s Top 100 Pest Control Companies, Watauga County Best of the Best, and NCPMA’s Technician of the Year.
Terminix offers both one-off extermination services and routine pest control. Plus, every contract comes with a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. Terminix will inspect your home for free. A qualified pest control expert will assess your situation and provide a suitable control plan.
Orkin has been in the industry for over 100 years. It has excellent consumer reviews and well-trained exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Pests Orkin helps with are centipedes, ticks, fleas, wasps, moths, flies, termites, mice, spiders, scorpions, and more. Orkin’s most common pest control service plan is also seasonal, meaning your home will be treated several times during the year.
Rentokil, a business service group, is the world's largest pest control company, which owns hundreds of brands worldwide. Rentokil is the parent company of several North American pest control providers such as Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X, which provide tailored services.
It deals with 36 of the most common pests such as mice, bed bugs, moths, rats, flies, cockroaches, spiders, and more. Depending on your location, Rentokil and its partners may cover wildlife like rodents, snakes, and birds.
Pest control businesses aren't all the same when it comes to credibility, expertise, and capability. It’s important to research providers to find the right one for your specific circumstance. Here are the key factors to consider when selecting a pest control professional:
It's recommended to look for a pest control company that focuses their business on the pest you have, like termites, bed bugs, roaches, or rodents. The company should explain their process for treating your type of pest.
Look for pest control companies with technicians that have certifications in pest control methods from expert organizations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to state licensing. Possessing the proper credentials indicates that the technicians have received adequate training. Also ask about regular training updates.
We suggest looking at customer reviews prior to scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and other sites can tell you whether a company consistently provides quality service and a good customer experience. Also check for any Better Business Bureau complaints that have been filed. Ask about the kind of ongoing education technicians receive to stay current on best pest control practices. When you choose a provider from our list of Danville's best pest control, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
Homeowners who want natural, eco-friendly pest control should look for services that use “green” certified solutions. You can also ask about trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or squirrels in your attic. Keep in mind that natural options may be less effective for serious infestations. If you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need more potent chemical treatments. No matter your approach to pest control, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control companies usually offer service guarantees for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a company will make another visit to re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the initial treatment. One-off treatments might not include these reservice warranties.
Once you have identified a few highly reviewed exterminator services, talk to each one and be prepared to ask these types of questions:
Analyze potential pest control providers using these questions. This will help you choose the right provider to safely and effectively resolve your pest problem at a reasonable price.
Pests vary by location. In Danville, there are several that residents may deal with. We examined around 10 million social media conversations to uncover the most common pests invading local homes.
Our top picks for pest control companies in Danville are Terminix and Orkin. They're well-respected in the industry and cover all common pests.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is having a pest control company come to your home once every quarter. Getting your property sprayed regularly will stop insects and other wildlife from returning.
For the most part, the chemicals used in pest control are safe. That being said, they have to be handled by a trained exterminator to make sure they’re used safely. After your house has been sprayed, the exterminator will recommend staying away from your home for a certain period of time. This is typically 2 to 4 hours, but can be a maximum of 24 hours.
The key to finding the right exterminator for you is to contact several companies and get estimates from them. You should also make sure you read reviews to check their reputation and customer satisfaction.
Many Danville 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 a visit. To determine exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several pest control companies for a quote.
We recommend quarterly pest control treatments, or even bi-monthly if needed. For more serious infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments for the first three to six months.
