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 took into consideration factors including customer service, types of pest control treatments offered, industry experience, coverage, and more.
Here’s how Lincolnshire’s top companies ranked:
Terminix ranks as one of the top four pest control companies worldwide, and it has been assisting homeowners with staying pest-free for over 90 years. Terminix has received numerous awards for its service, including Angie's List Super Service Award 2017, The Business Journal’s FAST 50, and NCPMA’s Technician of the Year.
Terminix helps with all kinds of pests in Lincolnshire, and it offers a 30-day guarantee. Their service also includes follow-up visits and annual inspections to help keep your home pest-free.
Started in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has evolved into one of the most reputable in the pest control industry. Due to its large network, Orkin can provide next-day, or sometimes even same-day, service.
Orkin will send a pest control expert to inspect your property to identify problem pests and areas and draw up treatment plan. Once the initial treatment, your Orkin exterminator will follow up to make sure the pests haven’t returned. If they have, your local technicians can help.
Rentokil, a service group, is the world's largest pest control company, representing hundreds of brands worldwide. The global brand owns the North American pest control companies Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X.
Rentokil and its partners deal with the following pests: cockroaches, spiders, moths, crickets, mosquitoes, flies, wasps, ants, bees, and bed bugs. Its treatments are child- and pet-friendly.
Not all pest control businesses are the same in credibility, background, and capability. Vetting services helps you identify the right choice for your pest problem. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that has extensive experience treating the type of pest you're dealing with, whether it's termites, bed bugs, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should clearly lay out its area of expertise.
When selecting a pest control provider, 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). Possessing these credentials demonstrates that a technician has adequate training. Question the company about its policies for continuing education and the total training hours required for technicians.
Read through reviews on Google, Yelp, and similar sites before scheduling a pest control appointment. Ensure by reading reviews that the company reliably provides effective service and receives positive customer feedback. Also check for any Better Business Bureau complaints that have been filed. Ask whether technicians receive continuing regular education on the most cutting-edge pest control treatments. When you select an exterminator from our list of the top pest control in Lincolnshire, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
Search for providers offering “green” accreditations to get more natural, eco-friendly pest control. You can also ask about gentle catch and release methods for larger animals like mice or squirrels. Keep in mind that stronger solutions might be a better option for significant infestations. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control providers usually offer service guarantees for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a provider will return to re-treat your home free of charge if pests remain after the initial treatment. One-off treatments typically don't include these reservice warranties.
After choosing your top pest management services, call each one and ask questions such as these:
Take the time to thoroughly evaluate pest control companies using these questions. This will allow you to hire a qualified provider to effectively control your pest situation at a fair price.
Pests vary by location. In Lincolnshire, there are a few different ones that residents may deal with. We came up with a list of the most common pests in the city by examining what pests were frequently posted about on social media.
The best pest control providers are Terminix and Orkin. They help with all common pests, have locations nationwide, and have been in business for a long time.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is getting a pest control company to come to your house once every two or three months. Getting your property sprayed regularly will stop insects and other wildlife from coming back.
Chemicals used in pest control are safe but must be handled by a professional. If you have any questions about the safety of the chemicals — such as if they're safe around your family and pets — and how long you need to stay out of your home after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Generally, you should stay away from your home for two to four hours after spraying.
Pest control involves exterminating unwanted bugs like bees, fleas, and other unwanted bugs or animals from your home. When you hire a pest control company, an exterminator will come and inspect your property. Then they will use various techniques to get rid of the pests and prevent them from coming back, such as chemical or natural sprays, bait, and traps.
Many Lincolnshire 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 a visit. To figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several pest control companies for an estimate.
For apartments and homes, quarterly or bi-monthly pest control treatments are recommended. If you have a more serious infestation, however, you may need to get monthly treatments for a few months until the issue is resolved.
