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:
Our team at Today's Homeowner narrowed it down to these pest control companies by analyzing customer reviews, pest control treatments offered, contracts, state availability, costs, and more.
Here’s how Incline Village’s top companies ranked:
Terminix is one of the biggest and longest running pest control companies in the world, with many branches in 45 states and 22 other countries. Terminix has received multiple awards for its service, including Pest Control Technology Magazine’s Top 100 Pest Control Companies, Watauga County Best of the Best, and Triad's Best Exterminator.
Terminix treats many types of pests in Incline Village, and if you’re not 100% satisfied with the service you receive 30 days after treatment, you can get a refund. Terminix will inspect your home for free. A qualified pest control expert will assess your situation and give you a suitable control plan.
Founded in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has become one of the most trustworthy in the pest control industry. Its pest control specialists have to complete 160 hours of training. Additionally, because of its big network, it can often provide next-day — or even same-day — pest control.
Pests Orkin handles includes hornets, bees, rats, moths, fleas, yellow jackets, carpenter ants, centipedes, silverfish, scorpions, and more. Each pest control contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. If your pest problem isn't handled, your exterminator will come back for another visit.
Rentokil has been helping homeowners exterminate common pests for over 90 years. This large service group is the parent company of several top regional pest control companies in North America. These include Presto-X, Western Exterminator, and J.C. Ehrlich.
Rentokil and its partners control for the following pests: spiders, mosquitoes, wasps, flies, moths, ants, bees, crickets, cockroaches, and bed bugs. After the initial inspection of your home, a technician will treat your property as often as your contract states.
Not all pest control companies are the same in credibility, skill set, and effectiveness. Evaluating companies helps you identify the right choice for your pest circumstance. Here are the key factors to consider when hiring a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that has extensive experience treating the type of pest you're dealing with, whether it's roaches, bed bugs, termites, rodents, or something else. The company should thoroughly describe on their website its area of expertise.
Look for pest control companies with technicians that have certifications in pest control methods from reputable industry associations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to state licensing. Holding the proper credentials indicates that the technicians have received adequate training. Also ask about ongoing educational requirements.
Spend time perusing online reviews on Google and Yelp before committing to a pest control provider. This can help you verify 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 ongoing regular training to stay current on the latest pest control methods. When you select a professional from our list of Incline Village's best pest control, you can feel confident knowing that 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” accredited solutions. You can also ask about trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or raccoons nesting nearby. 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. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Leading pest control companies usually offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. This means that if pests remain after the initial treatment, the provider will come back and re-treat your home at no cost until the infestation is taken care of. One-time treatments may not include reservice guarantees.
Once you have compiled a list of a few highly reviewed exterminator services, have conversations with each of them and be prepared to ask these types of questions:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control companies using these questions. This will help you select the right provider to safely and successfully resolve your pest problem at a fair price.
Pests vary by location. In Incline Village, there are a few different ones that residents may deal with. We compiled a list of the most common pests in the city by examining what pests were often posted about on social media.
Our top picks for pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They're respected in the industry and cover all common pests.
Hiring a pest control company and getting a professional to spray your property once every quarter is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and other wildlife from coming inside your house.
To find the best pest control company for you, the key is to take your time and do diligent research. We recommend getting quotes from several companies and looking at reviews to help figure out which company is the best for you.
Pest control involves exterminating unwanted bugs like bees, fleas, and other unwanted bugs or wildlife from your property. When you hire a pest control company, a professional exterminator will come and inspect your property. Then they will use various methods to remove the pests and stop them from coming back, such as chemical or natural sprays, bait, and traps.
Many Incline Village homeowners are concerned 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 find out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several pest control providers for an estimate.
We recommend quarterly pest control treatments, or even bi-monthly if needed. For larger infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments over the course of the first three to six months.
