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:
Today's Homeowner narrowed it down to these pest control companies by comparing pest control treatments offered, customer reviews, costs, contracts, state availability, and more.
Here’s how they ranked:
Founded in 1927, Terminix has almost 100 years of experience in the pest control industry. The company offers cutting-edge pest control treatments that are safe for you and your family.
Terminix helps with dozens of pests in Heath, and if you aren’t 100% satisfied with the service you receive 30 days after treatment, you can get a refund. Terminix’s typical pest regimen includes a home inspection and initial treatment, followed by three seasonal treatments during the year.
Orkin has been in the industry for over 100 years. Its pest control specialists undergo 160 hours of training. In addition, because of its big network, it can usually provide next-day — or even same-day — visits.
Orkin will send a pest control expert to inspect your property to identify problem pests and areas and draw up a suitable treatment plan. Once the first treatment, your Orkin exterminator will follow up to make sure the pests haven’t come back. If they have, your local technicians can assist.
Founded in 1925, Rentokil has almost 100 years’ worth of experience dealing with pests. This large service group is the parent company of several regional pest control providers in North America. These include Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X.
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. Rentokil’s treatments are child- and pet-friendly.
Pest control services vary in reputation, proficiency, and capability. It's important to research providers to find the right fit for your pest problem. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control company:
Choose a pest control company that can effectively address your specific problem, whether it's termites, bed bugs, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should have clearly laid out its expertise with your specific pest.
When selecting 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). Having these credentials indicates 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.
We suggest checking out customer reviews before scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and other review sites will show whether a company consistently provides quality service and has happy customers. Also check the Better Business Bureau website for any complaints that have been filed. Ask about the kind of ongoing education technicians receive to stay current on best pest control practices. When you select a provider from our list of Heath's best pest control, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer natural pest control methods, look for companies with “green” accreditation. For larger pests like mice or squirrels, ask if a provider offers gentle catch and release programs. But keep in mind natural options may not work as well for significant infestations. If you have a moderate to serious pest problem, you may need more potent traditional treatments. No matter your approach to pest control, any pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk must be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control providers typically offer service guarantees for recurring plans. The guarantees mean the provider will make another visit and re-treat for free if you still have pests in your home after the initial treatment. One-time treatments don't typically include reservice guarantees.
Once you have determined your top exterminators, contact each one with these questions:
Take the time to thoroughly evaluate pest control companies using these questions. This will enable you to choose a qualified provider to effectively handle your pest situation at a fair price.
Heath is home to a number of pests, from wildlife to insects. We reviewed around 10 million social media posts to identify which pests were causing the most trouble for residents.
The best pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They can treat all common pests, service locations nationwide, and have been in the industry for a long time.
Hiring a pest control company and having a professional spray your property regularly is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and other wildlife from coming inside your house.
The key to finding the best exterminator for you is to get in touch with multiple companies and get estimates from them. You should also be sure you read reviews to check their reputation and customer satisfaction.
There are some pests you can handle yourself. For example, if you see some ants or a rogue spider, chances are you can get rid of it on your own. But some situations warrant calling the professionals. If you have a big 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 Heath, where the cost of living is relatively high compared to other cities, the cost of pest control may be a concern. How much pest control costs varies depending on several factors, such as what type 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 usually cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
Spring is the best time for preventative pest control. This is because nests and colony numbers will grow much larger as it gets warmer, so pest control in the spring can help prevent your property from getting too many pests later.
