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 experts to help you find the best provider for you. We assessed contracts, costs, pest control treatments offered, state availability, customer reviews, and more.
Here’s how Glenville’s top providers ranked:
Terminix’s headquarters are in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries worldwide. It has also been in the industry for nearly 100 years. Terminix has received numerous awards for its service, including Pest Control Technology Magazine’s Top 100 Pest Control Companies, The Business Journal’s FAST 50, and Triad's Best Exterminator.
Terminix provides both one-time extermination services and seasonal pest control. In addition, every contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. Terminix offers a free inspection. A qualified exterminator will take a look at your situation and outline a suitable control plan.
Founded in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has evolved into one of the most reputable in the pest control industry. It has excellent consumer reviews and well-trained exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin handles many common pests, such as cockroaches, ants, silverfish, and spiders. Orkin’s most common pest control service plan is also seasonal, so your home will be treated several times over the course of a year.
Rentokil is a well-known name in pest control, with branches across the world and nearly a century of experience in the industry. Rentokil is the parent company of top North American pest control providers including Presto-X, J.C. Ehrlich, and Western Exterminator, which can provide tailored services.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, which means your pest control expert will focus on both exterminating existing pests and preventing future infestations. Its services include preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Not all pest control providers are the equal in reputation, experience, and competence. Evaluating companies helps you identify the right choice for your pest issue. Focus on these key factors when selecting a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that has experience treating the type of pest you're dealing with, whether it's rodents, roaches, bed bugs, termites, or something else. The company should provide detailed explanations of its area of expertise.
When selecting a pest control company, look for technicians that hold certifications from respected industry associations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), on top of proper state licensing. The right credentials indicate that the technicians have completed proper training. Also inquire about continuing education policies and total training hours.
Before scheduling an appointment, spend time reading online reviews on sites such as Google or Yelp to see which providers have a reputation for providing positive experiences and effective services. 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 current pest control best practices. When you choose a provider from our list of Glenville'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 companies that promote “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, and if you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need stronger traditional methods. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control professionals typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean the company will come back and re-treat at no cost if your home still has pests after the initial visit. One-time treatments don't typically include reservice guarantees.
After selecting your top exterminators, reach out to each one and ask questions such as these:
Take the time to thoroughly analyze pest control companies using these questions. This will help you choose the right provider to safely and successfully eliminate your pest problem at a fair price.
A variety of pests end up finding their way into Glenville homes. Some are just harmless, but others can damage your home and carry diseases. All of them can give homeowners anxiety. We analyzed around 10 million online discussions to uncover the most common pests plaguing local homes.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies in Glenville are Terminix and Orkin. They're well known in the industry and cover all common pests.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is having a pest control company come to your house once every quarter or every two to three months. Spraying your property regularly will stop insects and animals from returning.
The key to finding the right pest control company for you is to get in touch with several companies and get estimates 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 the situation. You’ll want to consider factors like how much the pest control will cost, what chemicals need to be used, and the size of the infestation. Additionally, you may want to also consider professional pest control if you're concerned about safety or pets.
Many Glenville homeowners wonder about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control generally costs $40 to $70 per visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 per visit. To find out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several providers for a quote.
If you already have a serious pest infestation, you should get pest control as soon as possible. However, if you’re just interested in 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 in the summer. But it’s never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or in other seasons and see effective results.
