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 top pest control companies so you can find the best provider for you. We analyzed contracts, customer reviews, costs, state availability, pest control treatments offered, and more.
Here’s how the top pest control companies in Commack ranked:
Terminix has several hundred branches in more than 22 countries and has been in the pest control industry for almost 100 years. With this breadth of experience, it’s easy to see why Terminix is a top choice for many homeowners.
Terminix handles all types of pest problems for homeowners and business owners. These include termites, roaches, opossums, ants, raccoons, rodents, and spiders. Terminix’s typical pest regimen consists of a home inspection and preliminary treatment, with three seasonal treatments during the year.
With more than 100 years of experience, Orkin is one of the largest pest control companies in the country. Its pest control specialists have to undergo 160 hours of training. Plus, due to its large network, it can usually provide next-day — or even same-day — visits.
Pests Orkin deals with are earwigs, ticks, silverfish, bed bugs, spiders, bees, wasps, yellow jackets, rats, carpenter ants, and more. After the first visit, your pest control specialist will follow up regularly to make sure that the pests have stayed away for good. If they have, your local technicians can assist
Rentokil is a well-known name in pest control, with branches across the globe and nearly a century of experience in the industry. The global brand owns the North American pest control companies J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil handles the common pests in Commack, including crickets, moths, bees, bed bugs, cockroaches, wasps, flies, mosquitoes, spiders, and ants. Its services cover preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Not all pest control businesses are the same in credibility, background, and proficiency. Vetting providers helps you identify the right choice for your pest problem. Focus on these key factors when hiring a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that has experience handling the type of pest you have, whether it’s bed bugs, termites, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should be able to explain their approach for treating 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). Possessing these credentials demonstrates that the technicians have adequate training. Question the company about the training hours required for its technicians as well as its policies for continuing education.
Before booking an appointment, browse online reviews on sites such as Google or Yelp to verify that the company has a reputation for providing effective service and positive customer experiences. Also check for complaints with the Better Business Bureau. Inquire about the ongoing training the company’s technicians receive to ensure they stay up to date on the latest pest control methods and treatments. When you choose an exterminator from our list of the top pest control in Commack, 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 providers that specialize in “green” accredited 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. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, all pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk must be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control providers usually offer service warranties for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a provider will come back to re-treat your home free of charge if pests remain after the first treatment. One-off treatments typically don't include these reservice guarantees.
Once you have identified your top pest management companies, contact each one to ask these questions:
Analyze potential pest control companies using these questions. This will help you hire the right provider to safely and effectively eliminate your pest problem at a reasonable price.
A variety of pests end up finding their way into Commack homes. Some are relatively harmless, but others can damage your home and carry diseases. All of them can cause anxiety. So you can have an idea of the most common pests in the city, we analyzed the pests talked about in around 10 million posts on social media.
The top pest control providers are Orkin and Terminix. They can treat all common pests, have many locations, and have been in business for decades.
Hiring a pest control company and having a professional spray your property once every quarter is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and animals from coming inside your house.
The key to finding the best pest control company for you is to contact several companies and get quotes from them. You should also make sure you read reviews to check their reputation and customer satisfaction.
Whether you should do DIY pest control or hire an exterminator depends on your situation. You’ll want to consider factors like what chemicals need to be used, the size of the infestation, and how much the pest control will cost. In addition, you may want to also consider professional pest control if you're concerned about safety or pets.
Many Commack homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control generally costs $40 to $70 per visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 a visit. To figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several companies for an estimate.
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.
