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:
When ranking these pest control companies, we took into consideration factors like coverage, industry experience, types of pest control treatments offered, customer service, and more.
Here’s how we ranked them:
Terminix’s headquarters are in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries around the globe. It has also been in the industry for about 100 years. It uses the latest pest control techniques to rid your property of insects and unwanted wildlife anywhere you see them.
Terminix’s specialty termite services are their most widely known service, but they deal with much more than just that. Their other services include: spiders, mosquitoes, rodents, ants, ticks, cockroaches, and wildlife control such as squirrels, opossums, skunks, raccoons, and more. Their service also includes follow-up visits and annual inspections to help keep your home pest-free.
Orkin has been in the business for over 100 years. Due to its vast network, Orkin can provide same-day or next-day service.
Orkin can protect your home from many common pests, including silverfish, ants, cockroaches, and spiders. Each pest control contract comes with a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. If your pest problem isn't handled, your pest control specialist will return for another visit.
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of industry experience. The company provides expert pest control solutions for homeowners and business owners. The well-known brand owns the North American pest control providers J.C. Ehrlich, Presto-X, and Western Exterminator.
Rentokil handles the common pests in Bensalem, including mosquitoes, crickets, ants, moths, spiders, bed bugs, cockroaches, wasps, flies, and bees. Rentokil’s treatments are safe for your pets and children.
Pest control companies vary in reputation, expertise, and competence. It's important to research services to find the right fit for your pest problem. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that has experience handling the type of pest you have, whether it’s termites, bed bugs, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should be able to describe how they treat your type of pest.
When selecting a pest control provider, look for technicians with certifications in pest control methods from respected industry associations, like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to proper state licensing. The right credentials indicate that the technicians have completed adequate training. Also ask about required training hours and continuing education.
Read through reviews on Google, Yelp, and similar sites before booking a pest control appointment. Confirm through customer feedback that the company reliably provides effective service and a positive customer experience. Also check for any Better Business Bureau complaints that have been filed. Ask whether technicians receive consistent education on the most cutting-edge pest control treatments. When you select an exterminator from our list of Bensalem's best pest control, 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 humane catch and release methods for larger pests like mice or other burrowing rodents. 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 more potent chemical treatments. Regardless of what methods you choose, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) must be registered with the EPA.
Leading pest control professionals usually offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean if pests remain after the initial treatment, the provider will come back and re-treat your home for free until the infestation is handled. One-time treatments may not come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have selected your top pest management companies, reach out to each one to ask questions such as:
Take the time to thoroughly assess pest control companies using these questions. This will allow you to select a qualified provider to effectively handle your pest situation at a fair price.
Different pests come up in different places. In Bensalem, there are a few different ones that residents may deal with. So you can have an idea of the most common pests in the city, we examined the pests talked about in around 10 million posts on social media.
The best pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They can treat all common pests, service many locations, and have been in business for decades.
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. Spraying your property regularly will stop insects and other wildlife from coming back.
Chemicals used in pest control are safe but have 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 need to 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.
In a city like Bensalem, where the cost of living is high compared to other cities, the cost of pest control is most likely a concern. How much pest control costs varies based on several factors, including what type of pests are troubling you and how bad the infestation is. A single visit can cost between $300 and $500, while a quarterly treatment plan is typically cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
For apartments and homes, quarterly or bi-monthly pest control treatments are advisable. If you have a more serious infestation, however, you may need to get monthly treatments for a few months until the problem is resolved.
