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 narrowed down the top pest control companies by comparing costs, customer reviews, state availability, and more.
Here’s how the top companies in Coralville ranked:
Terminix is headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries globally. It has also been in the industry for about 100 years. Terminix has received multiple 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-time extermination services and routine pest control. Additionally, every contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. Terminix will inspect your home for free. A qualified technician will assess your situation and outline a suitable control plan.
Orkin has more than 100 years of experience in the industry and is one of the most trustworthy pest control companies in the country. It has great consumer reviews and well-trained exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin can protect your home from many common pests, such as cockroaches, spiders, silverfish, and ants. Each contract with Orkin comes with a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. If initial treatments are ineffective, your pest control specialist will come back for another visit.
Rentokil has been helping homeowners rid themselves of common pests for over 90 years. Rentokil is the parent company of several North American pest control providers like Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X, which provide tailored services.
Rentokil and its partners handle the following pests: mosquitoes, cockroaches, ants, flies, spiders, bed bugs, crickets, wasps, moths, and bees. Rentokil’s treatments are child- and pet-friendly.
Pest control providers vary in reputation, understanding, and effectiveness. 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 is able to handle 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.
When choosing a pest control company, look for technicians that hold certifications from respected industry associations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), on top of proper state licensing. These credentials show that the technicians have completed adequate training. Also inquire about continuing education policies and total training hours.
We highly recommend checking out customer reviews before scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and other review sites can tell you whether a company consistently provides quality service and has happy customers. Also check the Better Business Bureau website for any complaints that have been filed. Ask about the kind of ongoing education technicians receive to stay current on the latest pest control techniques and treatment methods. When you select a provider from our list of Coralville'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 companies with “green” accreditation. For bigger animals such as mice or snakes, ask if a provider offers gentle catch and release programs. But keep in mind natural options may not work as well for significant infestations. If you have a moderate to serious pest problem, you may need more effective traditional methods. Regardless of what methods you choose, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control companies usually offer service warranties for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a company will return to re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the first treatment. One-off treatments typically don't include these reservice warranties.
Once you have selected a few highly reviewed exterminator services, talk to each of them and come prepared to ask these types of questions:
Take the time to thoroughly assess pest control companies using these questions. This will help you choose the right provider to safely and successfully eliminate your pest problem at a fair price.
Coralville is home to several pests, from wildlife to insects. To help you prepare for the most commonly seen pests, we examined online discussions and created a list of the ones mentioned the most.
The best pest control providers are Orkin and Terminix. They can treat all common pests, service many locations, 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 home once every quarter. Spraying your property regularly will stop insects and other wildlife from coming back.
Pest control involves removing unwanted bugs like bees, fleas, and other unwanted bugs or animals from your home. When you hire a pest control company, a professional exterminator will do an inspection. 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.
In a town like Coralville, where the cost of living is above average compared to other cities, the cost of pest control is most likely a concern. How much pest control costs varies depending on several factors, including 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 typically cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
For apartments and homes, quarterly or bi-monthly pest control treatments are recommended. If you have a more serious infestation, on the other hand, you may need to get monthly treatments for a few months until the infestation is resolved.
