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 has narrowed down the best pest control experts to help you find the best provider for you. We analyzed contracts, pest control treatments offered, state availability, costs, customer reviews, and more.
This is how the top pest control companies in Hyattsville ranked:
Terminix is headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries around the globe. It has also been in business for almost 100 years. Terminix has received numerous awards for its service, including Pest Control Technology Magazine’s Top 100 Pest Control Companies, The Business Journal’s FAST 50, and Triad's Best Exterminator.
Terminix takes care of all kinds of pest problems for residential and commercial customers. These include opossums, raccoons, spiders, roaches, rodents, ants, and termites. Terminix will inspect your home for free. A qualified pest control expert will assess your situation and give you a suitable control plan.
Orkin has been in the industry for over 100 years. Its pest control specialists complete 160 hours of training. Additionally, due to its big network, it can usually provide next-day — or even same-day — visits.
Orkin will send a pest control expert to inspect your property to identify issues and draw up treatment plan. Orkin can schedule regular follow-up visits. Also, if you have recurring problems or any other immediate pest control needs, you can contact Orkin’s customer service line.
Rentokil is a well-known name in pest control, with providers across the globe and nearly a century of experience in the industry. Rentokil is the parent company of several North American pest control providers including Western Exterminator, Presto-X, and J.C. Ehrlich, which provide tailored services.
Rentokil provides integrated pest management (IPM) services, which means your pest control specialist will focus on both eliminating current pests and preventing future infestations. Depending on your location, Rentokil and its partners may cover wildlife like rodents, snakes, and birds.
Pest control companies aren't all equal when it comes to reputation, knowledge, and competence. It’s important to research services to find the right one for your specific circumstance. Focus on these key factors when hiring a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that can address the type of pest you have, whether it’s termites, bed bugs, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should be able to describe how they treat your type of pest.
Look for pest control companies with technicians that have certifications in pest control methods from expert organizations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to state licensing. Holding the proper credentials shows that the technicians have received adequate training. Also ask about regular training updates.
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 select a company from our list of the top pest control in Hyattsville, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
Search for companies with “green” accreditations if you want more natural, eco-friendly pest control. You can also ask about gentle catch and release methods for larger animals like mice or squirrels. Keep in mind that more potent solutions might be a better option for major infestations. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, all pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reliable pest control providers typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. These guarantees mean the provider will make another visit and re-treat your home for free if pests remain after the first treatment. One-time services usually don't include reservice guarantees.
Once you have selected a few top contending pest control companies, have conversations with each one and be prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
Take the time to thoroughly analyze pest control companies using these questions. This will enable you to hire a qualified provider to effectively handle your pest situation at a fair price.
Hyattsville is home to a number of pests, from wildlife to insects. We examined around 10 million online conversations to determine which pests people in different areas had the most problems with.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They're respected in the industry and help get rid of all common pests.
Hiring a pest control company and having a professional spray your property routinely is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and other wildlife from coming inside your house.
For the most part, pest control chemicals are safe. However, they need to be handled by a trained exterminator to ensure they’re used safely, which is especially important if you have young children. After your house has been sprayed, the exterminator will recommend staying out of your home for a certain amount of time. This is generally 2 to 4 hours, but can be up to 24 hours.
Many Hyattsville homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically costs $40 to $70 a visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 a visit. To find out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several pest control providers for an estimate.
If you already have a serious infestation, you should get pest control as soon as possible. However, if you’re just interested in preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional come spray your house is in the spring before colony numbers get too high when it's warmer. However, it’s never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or in other seasons and see effective results.
