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 has narrowed down the top pest control experts to help you find the best provider for you. We considered pest control treatments offered, costs, state availability, customer reviews, contracts, and more.
This is how the top pest control companies in Brushy Creek ranked:
Terminix is one of the top four pest control companies in the world, and it has been assisting homeowners with staying pest-free for over 90 years. Terminix has received numerous awards for its service, including Angie's List Super Service Award 2017, The Business Journal’s FAST 50, and Triad's Best Exterminator.
Terminix’s specialty is termites, but they deal with much more than that. Their other services include: ants, cockroaches, rodents, ticks, spiders, mosquitoes, and wildlife control such as opossums, raccoons, squirrels, skunks, and more. Terminix’s typical pest regimen includes a home inspection and initial treatment, followed by three additional treatments during the year.
Orkin Pest Control’s headquarters are in Atlanta, Georgia. It is one of the longest-running pest control companies with a large network of branches. Due to its large network, Orkin can offer next-day, or sometimes even same-day, service.
Orkin will send a pest control expert to inspect your property to identify potential problems and draw up treatment plan. Each scheduled service comes with a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. If initial treatments are ineffective, your exterminator will return for another visit.
Founded in 1925, Rentokil has close to a century’s worth of experience getting rid of pests. Rentokil is the parent company of top North American pest control providers including Presto-X, Western Exterminator, and J.C. Ehrlich, which can provide individual services.
Rentokil and its partners take care of the following pests: bed bugs, mosquitoes, flies, ants, cockroaches, spiders, wasps, bees, moths, and crickets. The company guarantees satisfaction with its treatments. If you still have pest problems after service, Rentokil will make as many visits as needed to resolve the issue.
Not all pest control companies are the same in reputation, background, and competence. Vetting companies helps you identify the right choice for your pest situation. Focus on these key factors when selecting a pest control provider:
You should choose a pest control company that is equipped to handle your specific problem, whether it's bed bugs, termites, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should clearly describe on their website its expertise with your specific pest.
The ideal pest management provider will employ technicians that have state licenses and are certified in pest control methods by organizations like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). These credentials demonstrate that the technicians have finished proper training. You'll also want to question each company about continuing training for their employees.
Read online reviews on Google and Yelp before scheduling a pest control appointment. This can help you verify whether the company consistently provides quality service and positive experiences. Also check the Better Business Bureau for any complaints. Ask the provider whether technicians receive continual training to stay current on the latest pest control methods. When you select a provider from our list of Brushy Creek's best pest control, you can rest easy knowing you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
Search for providers offering “green” certifications if you want more natural, eco-friendly pest control. You can also ask about gentle catch and release methods for larger animals like mice or snakes. Keep in mind that stronger treatments might be a better option for significant infestations. No matter your approach to pest control, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Quality pest control professionals typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean the provider will return and re-treat at no cost if you still have pests in your home after the initial treatment. One-time treatments may not come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have identified your top pest management companies, contact each one with these questions:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control providers using these questions. This will help you choose the best provider to safely and successfully eliminate your pest problem at a fair price.
Different pests appear in different places. In Brushy Creek, there are several that residents have to deal with. We created a list of the most common pests in the city by analyzing what pests were often mentioned on social media.
The best pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They cover all common pests, have locations nationwide, 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 quarter. Regularly spraying your property will stop insects and animals from returning.
For the most part, pest control chemicals are safe. However, they need to be handled by a trained professional to ensure they’re used properly and safely. After your house has been sprayed, the exterminator will recommend staying out of your home for a certain period of time. This is usually 2 to 4 hours, but can be as much as 24 hours.
Whether you should do DIY pest control or hire an exterminator depends on the situation. You’ll want to take into consideration 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 get professional pest control if you're concerned about safety or pets.
Many Brushy Creek homeowners are concerned 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 determine exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several companies for an estimate.
We recommend quarterly pest control treatments, or even bi-monthly in Brushy Creek, where pests can pop up more often because of the heat. For more serious infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments over the course of the first three to six months.
