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 pest control treatments offered, customer reviews, contracts, costs, state availability, and more.
Here’s how they ranked:
Terminix has several hundred branches in over 22 countries and has been in the pest control industry for over 90 years. It uses the latest technology in pest control to exterminate insects and unwanted wildlife wherever they are.
Terminix treats dozens of pests in Deer Park, and if you’re not 100% satisfied with the service you receive 30 days after treatment, you can get a refund. Terminix’s general pest regimen includes a home inspection and initial treatment, with three additional treatments during the year.
Orkin has been in the business for over 100 years. Its pest control specialists undergo 160 hours of training. And, because of its big network, it can often provide next-day — or even same-day — service.
Orkin takes care of many common pests, such as silverfish, cockroaches, spiders, and ants. Orkin’s general pest control plan is also quarterly, so your home will be treated several times during the year.
Founded in 1925, Rentokil has almost a century’s worth of experience protecting residents from pests. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of quite a few local pest control providers like Presto-X, J.C. Ehrlich, and Western Exterminator.
It protects from 36 of the most common pests such as rats, bed bugs, spiders, moths, mice, cockroaches, flies, and more. The company guarantees satisfaction with its treatments. If you still have pests after service, Rentokil will make as many visits as needed to resolve the issue.
Pest control businesses vary in credibility, expertise, and competence. It's important to research services to find the right fit for your pest problem. Focus on these key factors when hiring a pest control company:
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 provide an overview of how they treat your type of pest.
When selecting a pest control company, look for technicians with certifications in pest control methods from respected industry associations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to proper state licensing. Solid credentials show that the technicians have completed proper training. Also ask about continuing education policies and total training hours.
Before booking an appointment, spend time reading online reviews on sites such as Google or Yelp to see which providers have a reputation for providing effective service and positive customer experiences. Also look for any complaints via the Better Business Bureau. Inquire about ongoing training at the company as well as how its technicians 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 Deer Park, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer more eco-friendly and natural pest control solutions, look for companies that have "green" accreditations. If you’re dealing with larger pests, such as mice or squirrels invading your attic, you can also ask about humane catch and release methods. Bear in mind that natural pest control options may be less effective. You may need to consider the traditional route for a more serious infestation. No matter your approach to pest control, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Leading pest control provides typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. This means that if pests remain after the initial treatment, the company will return and re-treat your home at no cost until the infestation is handled. One-time treatments may not include reservice guarantees.
Once you have selected 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 evaluate pest control providers using these questions. This will help you hire the right provider to safely and successfully resolve your pest problem at a fair price.
Deer Park is home to a number of pests, from wildlife to insects. We created a list of the most common pests in the city by examining what pests were frequently mentioned on social media.
Our top picks for pest control companies in Deer Park are Orkin and Terminix. They're respected in the industry and help get rid of all common pests.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is getting a pest control company to come to your home once every two or three months. Regularly spraying your property will stop insects and animals from returning.
Whether you should do DIY pest control or hire an exterminator depends on the situation. You’ll want to consider factors like the size of the infestation, how much the pest control will cost, and what chemicals need to be used. Additionally, you may want to also get professional pest control if you're concerned about safety or pets.
Many Deer Park homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control usually costs $40 to $70 per visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 per visit. To determine exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several pest control 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 over the course of the first three to six months.
