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 looking at factors like types of pest control treatments offered, industry experience, customer satisfaction, coverage, and more.
This is how the top pest control companies in Madison Heights ranked:
Terminix has several hundred branches in over 22 countries and has been in business for almost 100 years. The company offers effective pest control services that are safe for your family and pets.
Terminix helps with dozens of pests in Madison Heights, and it offers a 30-day guarantee. Terminix will inspect your home for free. A qualified technician will assess your situation and outline 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. Its exterminators complete 160 hours of training. In addition, due to its large network, it can often offer next-day — or even same-day — pest control.
Orkin offers an expert property inspection to identify issues and draw up a suitable treatment plan. After the first visit, your pest control specialist will follow up regularly to make sure that the pests have not returned. If they have, your local technicians can assist
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of experience in the pest control industry. The company provides professional pest control treatments for homeowners and business owners. The brand owns the North American pest control providers J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil handles the common pests in Madison Heights, including bees, moths, cockroaches, bed bugs, spiders, ants, flies, crickets, wasps, and mosquitoes. Depending on the city, the pest control company may cover wildlife like rodents, snakes, and birds.
Not all pest control providers are the identical in reputation, background, and capability. Evaluating providers helps you identify the right choice for your pest problem. Focus on these key factors when selecting a pest control company:
It's recommended to look for a pest control company that primarily handles the pest you have, like roaches, bed bugs, termites, or rodents. The company should provide an overview of how they treat your type of pest.
Look for pest control companies that employ technicians with certifications in pest control methods from expert organizations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to state licensing. Having the proper credentials indicates that the technicians have received adequate training. You'll also want to ask about regular training updates.
Take some time to read online reviews on Google and Yelp before committing to a pest control provider. 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 continual training to stay current on the most recent pest control methods. When you select a provider from our list of Madison Heights' best pest control, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer more eco-friendly and natural pest control solutions, look for providers that have "green" accreditations. If you’re dealing with larger pests, such as mice or raccoons nesting in trees, you can also inquire about humane catch and release. Bear in mind that natural pest control options may be less effective; consider a more traditional route if dealing with a serious infestation. Regardless of what methods you choose, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control providers typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. The guarantees mean the provider will come back and re-treat at no cost if you still have pests in your home after the initial treatment. One-time treatments don't typically include reservice guarantees.
Once you have selected a few highly reviewed exterminator services, have conversations with each one and come prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
Take the time to thoroughly evaluate pest control companies using these questions. This will allow you to choose the best provider to effectively handle your pest situation at a fair price.
There are a variety of pests in Madison Heights, ranging from harmless bothers to ones that can damage your home. We generated a list of the most common pests in the city by examining what pests were frequently posted about on social media sites.
The best pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They help with all common pests, service many locations, and have been in the industry for several decades.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is having a pest control company come to your house once every quarter or every two to three months. Regularly spraying your property will stop insects and other wildlife from coming back.
Chemicals used in pest control are safe but have to 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 — or are wondering how long you should stay out of your home after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Generally, you should stay away from your home for two to four hours after spraying.
To find the best pest control company for you, the key is to take time to do thorough research. We recommend getting estimates from multiple companies and reading reviews to help figure out which company best suits your needs.
Many Madison Heights homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control generally 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 contacting several pest control companies for a quote.
We recommend quarterly pest control treatments, or even bi-monthly if needed. For more serious infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments for the first three to six months.
