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 team at Today's Homeowner has narrowed down the best pest control companies to help you find the best provider for you. We assessed contracts, pest control treatments offered, costs, state availability, customer reviews, and more.
Here’s how the top providers ranked:
Terminix is one of the biggest and longest running pest control companies in the world, with many branches across the United States and 22 other countries. With this breadth of experience, you can see why Terminix is one of the top companies in the country.
Terminix can help you with all kinds of pest problems for homeowners and business owners. These include termites, roaches, opossums, spiders, raccoons, ants, and rodents. Terminix’s general pest regimen includes a home inspection and preliminary treatment, with three seasonal treatments during the year.
Orkin has more than 100 years of experience in the industry and is one of the most reputable pest control companies in the country. It has excellent consumer reviews and competent pest control specialists who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin can protect your home from many common pests, including spiders, silverfish, ants, and cockroaches. Orkin’s general pest control service is also seasonal, so your home will be treated several times during the year.
Rentokil has been helping homeowners and business owners remove common pests for over 90 years. Rentokil is the parent company of several North American pest control providers including J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator, which can provide tailored services.
It helps with 36 of the most common pests including moths, flies, bed bugs, rats, spiders, mice, cockroaches, and more. Rentokil’s services cover preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Pest control companies aren't all equal when it comes to reputation, qualifications, and competence. It’s important to research services to find the right one for your specific issue. Here are the key factors to consider when hiring a pest control provider:
Look for a pest control company that is able to handle the type of pest you have, whether it’s roaches, bed bugs, termites, rodents, or something else. The company should be able to describe how they treat your type of pest.
When choosing a pest control provider, look for technicians that are licensed by the state and certified in pest control methods by industry associations such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). Obtaining these credentials indicates that a technician has adequate training. Question the company about its policies for continuing education and the total training hours required for technicians.
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 consistent training to stay current on the latest pest control methods. When you select a provider from our list of the top pest control in Hopatcong, 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 humane catch and release methods for 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. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Leading pest control companies usually offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean if pests remain after the initial treatment, the provider will return and re-treat your home for free until the infestation is taken care of. One-time treatments might not include reservice guarantees.
Once you have selected your top pest control providers, reach out to each one to ask questions such as:
Review potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will allow you to choose the right provider to effectively take care of your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
Hopatcong is home to a number of pests, from wildlife to insects. For an idea of the most widespread pests in the city, we analyzed the pests talked about in around 10 million social media posts.
Our top picks for pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They're highly regarded in the industry and cover all common pests.
Hiring a pest control company and getting a professional to spray your property routinely is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and other wildlife from coming inside your house.
Pest control involves getting rid of unwanted insects like bees, fleas, and other unwanted bugs or wildlife from your property. When you hire a pest control company, a professional will do an inspection. Then they will use various methods to get rid of the pests and stop them from returning, such as chemical or natural sprays, bait, and traps.
Many Hopatcong homeowners are concerned 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 figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several pest control providers for a quote.
We recommend quarterly pest control, or even bi-monthly if needed. For larger infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments for the first three to six months.
