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:
We narrowed it down to these pest control companies by comparing state availability, pest control treatments offered, costs, contracts, customer reviews, and more.
Here’s how the top providers ranked:
Terminix is headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries globally. It has also been in business for about 100 years. It utilizes the latest technology in pest control to eliminate insects and unwanted wildlife no matter where you find them.
Terminix treats all kinds of pests in Saddle Brook, and it guarantees that your pest problems will be solved. Along with pest control, Terminix provides other services, such as attic insulation, mechanical exclusion, home disinfection services, and moisture control.
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 exterminators need to undergo 160 hours of training. Plus, due to its big network, it can often provide next-day — or even same-day — visits.
Pests Orkin deals with are crickets, wasps, earwigs, hornets, mice, spiders, cockroaches, yellow jackets, flies, rats, and more. Orkin’s typical pest control service plan is also seasonal, so your home will be treated several times over the course of a year.
Founded in 1925, Rentokil has close to 100 years’ worth of experience protecting residents from pests. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of quite a few local pest control providers like J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both exterminating current pests and preventing future infestations. Its services cover preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Pest control businesses aren't all equal when it comes to reputation, qualifications, and capability. It’s important to research providers to find the right one for your specific circumstance. Here are the key factors to consider when hiring a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that specializes in treating the pest you have, like termites, bed bugs, roaches, or rodents. The company should explain their process for treating your type of pest.
Look for pest control companies with technicians that have certifications in pest control methods from expert organizations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to state licensing. Holding the proper credentials shows that the technicians have received adequate training. Also ask about regular training updates.
Take some time to read online reviews on Google and Yelp before scheduling a pest control appointment. This can help you confirm 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 most up-to-date pest control methods. When you select a company from our list of Saddle Brook'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” 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 more potent chemical treatments. No matter your approach to pest control, any pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control companies typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean the provider will make another visit and re-treat for free if you still have pests in your home after the initial visit. One-time treatments don't typically include reservice guarantees.
Once you have compiled a list of a few top-rated pest management providers, reach out to each of them and come prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control providers using these questions. This will help you choose the best provider to safely and successfully eliminate your pest problem at a fair price.
Different pests show up in different places. In Saddle Brook, there are several that residents have to deal with. For an idea of the most widespread pests in the city, we examined the pests discussed in around 10 million posts on social media.
The best pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They can treat all common pests, service many locations, and have been in the industry for a long time.
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.
A pest control company removes unwanted bugs or animals that have infested a property. Pest control also includes preventative measures taken to stop said pests from returning, which can happen at any point in Saddle Brook, but usually during the warm summers.
In a town like Saddle Brook, where the cost of living is remarkably high compared to other cities, the cost of pest control is most likely a concern. How much pest control costs depends on several factors, such as what type of pests you have an issue with and how bad the infestation is. A single visit can cost between $300 and $500, while a quarterly treatment plan is typically cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
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.
