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 narrowed down the top pest control companies by comparing factors like industry experience, types of pest control treatments offered, customer satisfaction, coverage, and more.
This is how the top companies in Springdale ranked:
Terminix has several hundred branches in over 22 countries and has been in business for over 90 years. 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 deals with all types of pest issues for homeowners and business owners. These include roaches, ants, spiders, raccoons, rodents, termites, and opossums. Along with pest control, Terminix has services, like moisture control, mechanical exclusion, home disinfection services, and attic insulation.
Orkin has been around for over 100 years. Due to its large network, Orkin can provide next-day, or sometimes even same-day, service.
Pests Orkin handles are earwigs, ticks, cockroaches, centipedes, rats, silverfish, scorpions, termites, spiders, carpenter ants, and more. Once the initial treatment, your Orkin expert will follow up to make sure the pests haven’t returned. If they have, your local technicians can help.
Founded in 1925, Rentokil has almost a century’s worth of experience protecting residents from pests. The large brand owns the North American pest control providers Presto-X, J.C. Ehrlich, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil provides integrated pest management (IPM) services, which means your pest control specialist will focus on both getting rid of existing pests and preventing future infestations. Its services consist of preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Not all pest control companies are identical when it comes to reputation, expertise, and capability. It's important to do your research to determine the most suitable option for your specific pest problem. Here are the key factors to consider when selecting a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that specializes in treating the pest you have, like rodents, roaches, bed bugs, or termites. The company should describe how they go about 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 indicates that the technicians have received adequate training. You'll also want to ask about ongoing educational requirements.
We suggest looking at customer reviews prior to scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and other sites will show whether a company consistently provides quality service and has happy customers. Also check for any Better Business Bureau complaints that have been filed. Ask about the kind of continuing education technicians receive to stay current on best pest control practices. When you choose a provider from our list of the top pest control in Springdale, 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 other burrowing rodents. Keep in mind that natural options may be less effective for serious infestations, and 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 usually 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 at no cost until the infestation is taken care of. One-time treatments might not come with reservice guarantees.
After choosing your top pest management services, reach out to each one and ask questions such as these:
Take the time to thoroughly evaluate pest control companies using these questions. This will help you choose the best provider to safely and successfully eliminate your pest problem at a fair price.
Pests vary by location. In Springdale, there are several that residents have to deal with. We analyzed around 10 million social media posts to determine the most common pests in the city.
The best pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They help with all common pests, have many locations, and have been in business for a long time.
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 house.
Pest control chemicals are safe but need 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 need to stay out of your house after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Generally, you should remain outside your home for two to four hours after spraying.
There are some pests you can handle yourself. For example, if you see a few ants or a rogue cockroach, chances are you can take care of it on your own. But some situations warrant calling the professionals. If you have an out-of-control infestation, you don’t know what the pest is, or would like preventative pest control, you should hire a pest control company.
In a town like Springdale, where the cost of living is really high compared to other cities, the cost of pest control is most likely a concern. The cost of pest control varies depending on several factors, including what kind of pests you have an issue with and how bad the infestation is. A single visit can cost between $300 and $500, but a quarterly treatment plan is generally cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
If you already have a serious infestation, you should get pest control as soon as possible. However, if you just want preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional spray your home is in the spring before colony numbers get too high when it's warmer. However, it’s never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or in other seasons and see effective results.
