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've narrowed down the best pest control experts so you can find the right provider for you. We considered pest control treatments offered, customer reviews, state availability, costs, contracts, and more.
This is how we ranked them:
Terminix is headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries around the globe. It has also been in the industry for almost 100 years. The company provides effective pest control services that are safe for your family and pets.
Terminix can help you with all types of pest issues for homeowners and business owners. These include spiders, opossums, termites, raccoons, ants, rodents, and roaches. Terminix’s typical pest regimen consists of a home inspection and preliminary treatment, followed by three additional treatments during the year.
With more than 100 years of experience, Orkin is one of the most trustworthy pest control companies in the country. It has positive consumer reviews and trained pest control specialists who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin’s most popular pest control service plan is its annual pest control contract. Orkin’s most common pest control service is also quarterly, which means your home will be treated several times over the course of a year.
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of experience. The company provides professional pest control solutions for homeowners and business owners. The global brand owns the North American pest control companies Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X.
It exterminates 36 of the most common pests such as bed bugs, mice, flies, moths, rats, cockroaches, spiders, and more. After the initial inspection and treatment of your property, a technician will return to your property every quarter.
Not all pest control companies are equal when it comes to credibility, expertise, and capability. It's important to do your research to determine the most suitable option for your specific pest problem. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control provider:
Look for a pest control company that is able to handle the type of pest you have, whether it’s termites, bed bugs, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should be able to provide an overview of how they treat your type of pest.
The ideal pest management provider will employ technicians that have state licenses and are certified in pest control methods by associations like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). These credentials indicate that the technicians have received proper training. You'll also want to question each company about continuing training for their employees.
Peruse reviews on Google, Yelp, and similar sites before scheduling a pest control appointment. Ensure by reading reviews that the company reliably provides effective service and a positive customer experience. Also check the Better Business Bureau website for any complaints that have been filed. Ask whether technicians receive continuing regular education on the most cutting-edge pest control treatments. When you choose a professional from our list of Englewood'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 humane catch and release methods for larger pests like mice or raccoons nesting nearby. Keep in mind that natural options may be less effective for serious infestations; if you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need stronger traditional methods. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reliable pest control providers typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. These guarantees mean the provider will return and re-treat your home for free if there are still pests after the first treatment. One-time services usually don't come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have selected a few top contending pest control companies, talk 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 right provider to safely and successfully resolve your pest problem at a fair price.
Different pests appear in different locations. In Englewood, there are several that residents have to deal with. We analyzed around 10 million online conversations to figure out which pests people in different cities had problems with the most.
The best pest control providers are Orkin and Terminix. They can treat all common pests, service many locations, and have been in business for a long time.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is getting a pest control company to come to your house once every two or three months. Spraying your property regularly will stop insects and animals from coming back.
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 — and how long you should stay out of your house after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Generally, you should stay away from your home for two to four hours after spraying.
A pest control company exterminates unwanted insects or animals that have infested a property. Pest control also includes preventative measures that help stop those pests from returning, which can happen at any point in Englewood, but usually during the warm summers.
In a town like Englewood, where the cost of living is average compared to other cities, the cost of pest control may be a concern. How much pest control costs depends on several factors, such as what kind of pests are troubling you and how bad the infestation is. A single visit can cost between $300 and $500, but a quarterly treatment plan is usually 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.
