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:
When ranking these pest control providers, we considered several factors including industry experience, coverage, types of pest control treatments offered, customer service, and more.
Here’s how the top companies in Flushing ranked:
Terminix is one of the biggest and oldest pest control companies in the world, with branches in 45 states and 22 other countries. Terminix has received multiple awards for its service, including Angie's List Super Service Award 2017, Watauga County Best of the Best, and Triad's Best Exterminator.
Terminix has both one-off extermination services and routine pest control. Plus, every contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. Terminix offers a free inspection. A qualified exterminator will assess your situation and detail a suitable control plan.
Started in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has evolved into one of the most trusted in the pest control industry. Because of its vast network, Orkin can provide same-day or next-day service.
Orkin will send a pest control expert to inspect your property to identify problem pests and areas and develop treatment plan. Orkin’s general pest control service is also quarterly, so your home will be treated several times during the year.
Rentokil has been helping homeowners remove common pests for over 90 years. Rentokil is the parent company of top North American pest control providers such as Western Exterminator, Presto-X, and J.C. Ehrlich, which provide individual services.
It deals with 36 of the most common pests such as moths, spiders, cockroaches, flies, bed bugs, mice, rats, and more. Its treatments are child- and pet-friendly.
Not all pest control businesses are the identical in credibility, skill set, and effectiveness. Evaluating businesses helps you identify the right choice for your pest issue. Here are the key factors to consider when selecting a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that has experience treating the type of pest you're dealing with, whether it's roaches, bed bugs, termites, rodents, or something else. The company should provide detailed explanations of its area of expertise.
The ideal pest control company 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 indicate that the technicians have finished proper training. You'll also want to inquire with each company about ongoing education for their employees.
Look through reviews on Google, Yelp, and similar sites prior to scheduling a pest control appointment. Confirm through customer feedback that the company reliably provides effective service and receives positive customer feedback. Also check the Better Business Bureau website for any complaints that have been filed. Ask whether technicians receive continuing regular education on the latest and most innovative pest control treatments. When you choose an exterminator from our list of Flushing'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 squirrels in your attic. However, natural options may be less effective for serious infestations. If you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need stronger traditional methods. Regardless of what methods you choose, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Leading pest control provides typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. This means that if pests remain after the initial treatment, the provider will make another visit and re-treat your home for free until the infestation is eliminated. One-time treatments may not include reservice guarantees.
Once you have identified a few top contending pest control companies, have conversations with each one and come prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
Take the time to thoroughly evaluate pest control providers using these questions. This will help you select the right provider to safely and successfully resolve your pest problem at a fair price.
Different pests come up in different places. In Flushing, there are several that residents may deal with. We analyzed around 10 million online discussions to identify which pests were causing the most trouble for residents.
The top pest control providers are Orkin and Terminix. They cover all common pests, service many locations, and have been in the industry for several decades.
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 animals from coming inside your home.
To find the right pest control company for you, the key is to take time to do diligent research. We recommend getting estimates from several companies and looking at reviews to help figure out which company best fits your needs.
A pest control company exterminates unwanted insects or animals that have infested your property. Pest control also consists of preventative measures that help stop those pests from coming back, which can happen at any point in Flushing, but usually during the warm summers.
Many Flushing 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 per visit. To figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several pest control companies for a quote.
For apartments and homes, quarterly pest control treatments are recommended. If you have a more serious infestation, however, you may need to get monthly treatments for a few months until the problem is resolved.
