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:
The team at Today's Homeowner narrowed down the top pest control providers by comparing state availability, customer reviews, costs, and more.
This is how the top pest control companies ranked in Calverton:
Terminix is one of the largest and oldest pest control companies in the world, with many branches across the United States and 22 other countries. With the amount of experience the company has, it’s easy to see why Terminix is one of the top companies in the country.
Terminix’s specialty termite services are their most widely known service, but they deal with much more than just that. Their other services include: spiders, ticks, ants, cockroaches, rodents, mosquitoes, and wildlife control including opossums, skunks, raccoons, squirrels, and more. In addition to pest control, Terminix provides services, like mechanical exclusion, home disinfection services, moisture control, and attic insulation.
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 excellent consumer reviews and well-trained exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin’s most common pest control service plan is its annual pest control contract. Orkin can schedule regular follow-up visits. Also, if you have recurring pest problems or any other immediate pest control needs, you can contact Orkin’s customer service.
Rentokil is a well-known name in pest control, with providers across the globe and close to a century of experience in the industry. 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 exterminates the common pests in Calverton, including bed bugs, bees, spiders, cockroaches, wasps, crickets, mosquitoes, moths, ants, and flies. Rentokil’s services consist of preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Not all pest control businesses are the same in reputation, qualifications, and effectiveness. Evaluating businesses helps you identify the right choice for your pest situation. Here are the key factors to consider when selecting a pest control company:
It's best to choose a pest control company that is equipped to handle your specific problem, whether it's bed bugs, termites, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should clearly describe on their website its expertise with your specific pest.
When selecting a pest control company, look for technicians that hold certifications from respected industry associations, like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to proper state licensing. These credentials indicate that the technicians have completed proper training. Also ask about continuing education policies and total training hours.
We highly recommend checking out customer reviews prior to scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and similar sites will show whether a company consistently provides quality service and has happy customers. Also check for any Better Business Bureau complaints that have been filed. Ask about the kind of continuing education technicians receive to stay current on the latest pest control techniques and treatment methods. When you choose a company from our list of Calverton'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 services that use “green” certified solutions. You can also ask about humane catch and release methods for larger pests like mice or other burrowing rodents. Keep in mind that natural options may be less effective for serious infestations, and if you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need more potent chemical treatments. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reliable pest control professionals typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. These guarantees mean the company will come back and re-treat your home for free if there are still pests after the first treatment. One-time services may not include reservice guarantees.
Once you have found your top pest management companies, contact each one to ask these questions:
Take the time to thoroughly evaluate pest control companies using these questions. This will allow you to select a qualified provider to effectively manage your pest situation at a fair price.
Which pests you see depends on where you live. In Calverton, there are a few different ones that residents have to deal with. For an idea of the most prevalent pests in the city, we examined the pests discussed in around 10 million social media posts.
The best pest control providers are Terminix and Orkin. They cover all common pests, have many locations, and have been in business for several decades.
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.
For the most part, pest control chemicals are safe. Even so, they have to be handled by a trained exterminator to ensure they’re used properly. After your house has been sprayed, the exterminator will recommend staying out of your home for a certain amount of time. This is usually 2 to 4 hours, but can be a maximum of 24 hours.
In a town like Calverton, where the cost of living is really high compared to other cities, the cost of pest control is most likely a concern. How much pest control costs depends 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 usually cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
If you already have a serious infestation, you should seek pest control as soon as possible. However, if you just want preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional come spray your house is in the spring before nest and colony numbers get too high when it's warmer. But it’s never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or any other season and see effective results.
