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 companies by looking at factors like types of pest control treatments offered, customer satisfaction, industry experience, coverage, and more.
Here’s how Burlington’s top companies ranked:
Terminix is one of the top four pest control companies worldwide, and it has been helping homeowners and businesses stay pest-free for over 90 years. The company provides effective pest control treatments that are safe for your family and pets.
Terminix’s specialty is termites, but they handle much more than that. Their other services include: ticks, ants, spiders, rodents, mosquitoes, cockroaches, and wildlife control such as raccoons, squirrels, skunks, opossums, and more. Their service also comes with follow-up visits and annual inspections for guaranteed results.
Orkin has more than 100 years of experience in the industry and is one of the most reputable pest control companies in the country. Due to its large network, Orkin can offer next-day, or sometimes even same-day, service.
Pests Orkin handles includes termites, bees, wasps, ticks, hornets, moths, scorpions, mice, yellow jackets, cockroaches, and more. After the first visit, your pest control specialist will follow up regularly to ensure that the pests have not returned. If they have, your local technicians can help
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of experience. The company provides professional pest control solutions for homeowners and business owners. This large service group is the parent company of several top regional pest control providers in North America. These include Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both getting rid of current pests and preventing future infestations. Its treatments are child- and pet-friendly.
Pest control companies aren't all identical when it comes to reputation, knowledge, and effectiveness. It’s important to research services to find the right one for your specific situation. Here are the key factors to consider when selecting a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that has experience treating the type of pest you're dealing with, whether it's roaches, bed bugs, termites, rodents, or something else. The company should provide detailed explanations of its area of expertise.
When choosing a pest control company, 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 indicate that the technicians have completed proper training. Also inquire about required training hours and continuing education.
Before scheduling an appointment, browse online reviews on sites such as Google or Yelp to verify that the company has a reputation for providing positive experiences and effective services. Also look for any complaints via the Better Business Bureau. Inquire about ongoing training at the company as well as how its technicians stay up to date on current pest control best practices. When you select a professional from our list of Burlington'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 providers that specialize in “green” accredited solutions. You can also ask about trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or other burrowing rodents. However, natural options may be less effective for serious infestations; if you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need stronger traditional methods. No matter your approach to pest control, any pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk must be registered with the EPA.
Leading pest control companies typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean if pests remain after the initial treatment, the company will make another visit and re-treat your home for free until the infestation is eliminated. One-time treatments may not come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have determined your top exterminators, contact each one with these questions:
Evaluate potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will enable you to choose a qualified provider to effectively resolve your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
Many kinds of pests can find their way into Burlington residences. Some are just harmless, but others can damage your home and carry diseases. All of them can cause anxiety. To help you prepare for the most problematic pests, we reviewed online discussions and put together a list of the ones mentioned the most.
The top pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They help with all common pests, service many locations, and have been in business for several decades.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is getting a pest control company to come to your house once every quarter. Getting your property sprayed regularly will stop insects and animals from returning.
Pest control involves exterminating unwanted bugs like bees, fleas, and other unwanted bugs or animals from your property. When you hire a pest control company, a professional will inspect your property. Then they will use various methods to remove the pests and prevent them from coming back, such as chemical or natural sprays, bait, and traps.
Many Burlington homeowners wonder about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically costs $40 to $70 per visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 per visit. To figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several pest control companies for a quote.
For apartments and homes, quarterly pest control treatments are recommended. If you have a more serious infestation, on the other hand, you may have to get monthly treatments for a few months until the infestation is resolved.
