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 it down to these pest control companies by analyzing costs, pest control treatments offered, customer reviews, contracts, state availability, and more.
Here’s how we ranked them:
Terminix is headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries worldwide. It has also been in the industry for almost 100 years. It utilizes the latest innovations in pest control to get rid of insects and unwanted wildlife no matter where you find them.
Terminix deals with all types of pest issues for residential and commercial customers. These include rodents, roaches, termites, opossums, spiders, raccoons, and ants. Along with pest control, Terminix offers services, including moisture control, mechanical exclusion, attic insulation, and home disinfection services.
Orkin Pest Control is based in Atlanta, Georgia. It is one of the longest-running pest control companies with a large network of branches. It has great customer reviews and skilled pest control specialists who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin’s most popular pest control plan is its annual pest control contract. Once the first treatment, your Orkin exterminator will follow up to check that the pests haven’t returned. If they have, your local technicians can assist.
Rentokil has been helping homeowners rid themselves of common pests for over 90 years. This large service group is the parent company of several regional pest control companies in North America. These include J.C. Ehrlich, Western Exterminator, and Presto-X.
Rentokil and its partners control for the following pests: crickets, ants, wasps, moths, flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, spiders, bed bugs, and bees. After the initial inspection of your property, a technician will service your property every four months.
Pest control services vary in credibility, proficiency, and capability. 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:
You should look for a pest control company that focuses their business on the pest you have, like rodents, roaches, bed bugs, or termites. The company should describe how they go about treating your type of pest.
Look for pest control companies with technicians that have certifications in pest control methods from reputable industry associations, 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. You'll also want to ask about ongoing educational requirements.
We suggest reading customer reviews before scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and other review sites will show 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 best pest control practices. When you choose an exterminator from our list of Bossier City's best pest control, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer natural pest control methods, look for providers that advertise “green” accreditation. For bigger animals such as mice or squirrels, ask if a provider offers humane trapping and relocation. Bear 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 potent traditional methods. No matter your approach to pest control, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control companies typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. The guarantees mean the company will return and re-treat at no cost if you still have pests in your home after the initial visit. One-time treatments don't typically include reservice guarantees.
Once you have compiled a list of a few top contending pest control companies, talk to each of them and be prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
Carefully review potential pest control providers using these questions. This will help you choose the best provider to safely and effectively eliminate your pest problem at a reasonable price.
There are various kinds of pests in Bossier City, ranging from harmless nuisances to disease-carrying insects. We came up with a list of the most common pests in the city by analyzing what pests were often posted about on social media platforms.
The top pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They help with all common pests, have many locations, and have been in business for several decades.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is having a pest control company come to your house once every quarter. Regularly spraying your property will stop insects and animals from coming back.
Pest control chemicals are safe but must be handled by a professional. If you have any questions or concerns about the safety of the chemicals — such as if they're safe around children and pets — and how long you need to stay out of your home after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Typically, you should stay away from your home for two to four hours after spraying.
Many Bossier City 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 a visit. To determine exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several pest control companies for a quote.
Spring is the best time for proactive pest control. The reason is nests and colony numbers will grow much larger when it's hotter, so pest control in the spring can help prevent your property from getting too many pests later.
