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 companies by comparing state availability, costs, contracts, customer reviews, pest control treatments offered, and more.
This is how we ranked the top pest control companies in Peru:
Terminix’s headquarters are in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries worldwide. It has also been in the industry for about 100 years. With this experience, you can see why Terminix is a top choice for many homeowners.
Terminix’s specialty is termites, but they handle much more than just that. Their other services include: mosquitoes, ticks, rodents, ants, cockroaches, spiders, and wildlife control including opossums, squirrels, skunks, raccoons, and more. Terminix’s general pest regimen includes a home inspection and preliminary treatment, with three additional treatments over the course of a year.
Orkin has been around for over 100 years. It has excellent consumer reviews and trained exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Pests Orkin helps with includes cockroaches, silverfish, carpenter ants, ticks, mice, flies, yellow jackets, hornets, termites, earwigs, and more. Orkin can arrange regular follow-up visits. Also, if you have recurring problems or any other urgent pest control needs, you can contact Orkin’s customer service line.
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of industry experience. The company provides professional pest control treatments for homeowners and business owners. The global brand owns the North American pest control companies Western Exterminator, Presto-X, and J.C. Ehrlich.
Rentokil and its partners deal with the following pests: ants, spiders, crickets, mosquitoes, moths, wasps, flies, bed bugs, cockroaches, and bees. The company guarantees satisfaction with its treatments. If you still have pest problems after service, Rentokil will make as many visits as needed to resolve the issue.
Pest control services vary in reputation, knowledge, and competence. It's important to research services to find the right fit for your pest problem. Here are the key factors to consider when hiring a pest control provider:
Look for a pest control company that can address the type of pest you have, whether it’s rodents, roaches, bed bugs, termites, or something else. The company should be able to provide an overview of how they treat your type of pest.
The ideal exterminator will employ technicians that have state licenses and are certified in pest control methods by groups like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). These credentials demonstrate that the technicians have finished proper training. You'll also want to ask 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 consistent training to stay current on the most up-to-date pest control methods. When you select an exterminator from our list of the top pest control in Peru, 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 companies that promote “green” accredited solutions. You can also ask about trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or squirrels in your attic. However, 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 return 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 reduced your options to your top exterminators, reach out to each one with questions such as:
Take the time to thoroughly evaluate pest control companies using these questions. This will help you hire the best provider to safely and successfully get rid of your pest problem at a fair price.
Peru is home to several pests, from wildlife to insects. To help you prepare for the most common pests, we reviewed various social media sites and put together a list of the ones mentioned the most.
The top pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They cover all common pests, have many locations, and have been in the industry for a long time.
Hiring a pest control company and getting a professional to spray your property regularly is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and other wildlife from coming inside your home.
There are some pests you can control yourself. For example, if you see a few ants or a stray wasp, chances are you can get rid of it on your own. But some cases warrant calling 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.
Many Peru homeowners wonder about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control generally costs $40 to $70 a visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 per visit. To determine exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several providers for a quote.
Spring is the best time for proactive pest control. This is because nests and colony numbers will get much higher as it gets warmer, so spraying in the spring can help prevent you from getting too many pests later.
