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 Today's Homeowner team narrowed down the top pest control companies by considering factors like coverage, customer satisfaction, industry experience, types of pest control treatments offered, and more.
Here’s how the top providers ranked:
Terminix’s headquarters are in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries around the globe. It has also been in the industry for nearly 100 years. The company offers state-of-the-art pest control services that are safe for you and your family.
Terminix’s specialty is termites, but they take care of much more than just that. Their other services include: spiders, ticks, mosquitoes, ants, cockroaches, rodents, and wildlife control such as squirrels, opossums, raccoons, skunks, and more. In addition to pest control, Terminix provides other services, like mechanical exclusion, moisture control, home disinfection services, and attic insulation.
Founded in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has grown to be one of the most reputable in the pest control industry. Its exterminators must complete 160 hours of training. And, due to its big network, it can usually provide next-day — or even same-day — pest control.
Orkin takes care of many common pests, such as silverfish, spiders, cockroaches, and ants. Each contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. If initial treatments are ineffective, your exterminator will come back for another visit.
Rentokil has been helping homeowners remove common pests for over 90 years. Rentokil is the parent company of top North American pest control providers including J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator, which can provide individual services.
Rentokil and its partners deal with the following pests: bed bugs, crickets, spiders, mosquitoes, wasps, cockroaches, ants, bees, moths, and flies. After the initial inspection and treatment of your property, a technician will service your property every quarter.
Not all pest control companies are equal when it comes to credibility, knowledge, and capability. It's important to do your research to determine the ideal option for your specific pest problem. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that focuses their business on the pest you have, like bed bugs, termites, roaches, or rodents. The company should explain their process for treating your type of pest.
When choosing a pest control provider, look for technicians that have the proper state licensing and are certified in pest control methods by industry associations such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). Having these credentials indicates that the technicians have adequate training. Question the company about its policies for continuing education and the total training hours required for technicians.
We suggest looking at customer reviews before scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and similar sites can tell you whether a company consistently provides quality service and a good customer experience. 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 Ecorse'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 trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or other burrowing rodents. Keep in mind that natural options may be less effective for serious infestations. If you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need more potent chemical treatments. Regardless of what methods you choose, all pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk must be registered with the EPA.
Reliable pest control companies typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. These guarantees mean the company 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 compiled a list of a few top contending pest control companies, talk to each of them and come prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
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.
Which pests you may see depends on where you live. In Ecorse, there are several that residents have to deal with. We analyzed around 10 million online discussions to identify the pests that were causing the most trouble for residents.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They're respected in the industry and help get rid of all common pests.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is having a pest control company come to your home once every quarter. Regularly spraying your property will stop insects and other wildlife from coming back.
There are some pests you can handle yourself. For example, if you see some ants or a rogue wasp, chances are you can get rid of it on your own. But some cases warrant calling the professionals. If you have a large infestation, you don’t know what the pest is, or would like preventative pest control, you should hire a pest control company, especially if you have young children.
Many Ecorse homeowners wonder about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically costs $40 to $70 a visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 per 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.
Spring is the best time for preventative pest control. The reason is nests and colony numbers will get much higher as it gets warmer, so spraying in the spring can help prevent you from getting too many pests later.
