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 companies so you can find the best provider for you. We analyzed customer reviews, state availability, costs, contracts, pest control treatments offered, and more.
Here’s how the top pest control companies in Brockton ranked:
Founded in 1927, Terminix has almost 100 years of experience in the pest control industry. The company offers cutting-edge pest control treatments that are safe for you and your family.
Terminix helps with many types of pests in Brockton, and if you aren’t satisfied with the service you receive 30 days after treatment, you can get a refund. In addition to pest control, Terminix has other services, such as home disinfection services, attic insulation, mechanical exclusion, and moisture control.
Started in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has become one of the most reputable in the pest control industry. Its exterminators must complete 160 hours of training. Additionally, due to its big network, it can often offer next-day — or even same-day — service.
Orkin’s most common pest control service plan is its annual pest control contract. Orkin’s typical pest control service plan is also quarterly, meaning your home will be treated several times over the course of a year.
Rentokil, a business service group, is the world's largest and most widely recognized pest control company, which owns hundreds of brands worldwide. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of several local pest control companies like Presto-X, J.C. Ehrlich, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil provides integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both eliminating current pests and preventing future infestations. After the initial inspection of your property, a technician will treat your property every quarter.
Not all pest control providers are the identical in credibility, skill set, and proficiency. Evaluating providers helps you identify the right choice for your pest issue. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control provider:
Look for a pest control company that has experience treating the type of pest you're dealing with, whether it's rodents, roaches, bed bugs, termites, or something else. The company should thoroughly describe on their website its area of expertise.
The ideal exterminator will employ technicians that have state licenses and are certified in pest control methods by groups like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). These credentials show that the technicians have received proper training. You'll also want to inquire with each company about regular education updates for their employees.
Take some time to read online reviews on Google and Yelp before scheduling a pest control appointment. This can help you determine for yourself whether the company consistently provides quality service and positive experiences. Also check the Better Business Bureau for any complaints. Ask the provider whether technicians receive consistent training to stay current on the latest pest control methods. When you choose an exterminator from our list of the top pest control in Brockton, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
Search for companies with “green” certifications if you want more natural, eco-friendly pest control. You can also ask about humane trapping programs that don't harm pests like mice or snakes. Keep in mind that stronger methods might be a better option for major infestations. No matter your approach to pest control, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control professionals usually offer service guarantees for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a provider will make another visit 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.
After choosing your top pest control companies, call each one and ask questions such as these:
Thoroughly evaluate potential pest control companies using these questions. This will help you choose the right provider to safely and effectively resolve your pest problem at a reasonable price.
There are various types of pests in Brockton, ranging from harmless nuisances to ones that can damage your home. We compiled a list of the most common pests in the city by examining which pests were frequently mentioned on social media platforms.
The best pest control providers are Terminix and Orkin. They help with all common pests, have many locations, and have been in the industry for 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 animals from coming inside your house.
Pest control chemicals are safe but must be handled by a professional. If you have any questions about the safety of the chemicals — such as if they're safe around children and pets — and how long you have to stay out of your house after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Typically, you should stay away from your home for two to four hours after spraying.
Pest control involves removing unwanted insects like termites, rodents, and other unwanted bugs or wildlife from your home. When you hire a pest control company, an exterminator will do an inspection. Then they will use various techniques to remove the pests and prevent them from returning, such as chemical or natural sprays, bait, and traps.
In a city like Brockton, 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, while a quarterly treatment plan is generally 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’d just like preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional spray your home is in the spring before nest and 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 any other season and see effective results.
