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 considered several factors including customer service, coverage, industry experience, types of pest control treatments offered, and more.
This is how we ranked them:
Terminix is headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries worldwide. It has also been in business for nearly 100 years. Terminix has received multiple awards for its service, including Angie's List Super Service Award 2017, The Business Journal’s FAST 50, and Triad's Best Exterminator.
Terminix is widely known for its specialty termite services, but they exterminate much more than that. Their other services include: rodents, cockroaches, ants, ticks, mosquitoes, spiders, and wildlife control such as raccoons, squirrels, opossums, skunks, and more. Terminix will inspect your home for free. A qualified technician will take a look at your situation and detail a suitable control plan.
Started in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has grown to be one of the most trusted in the pest control industry. Its pest control specialists need to complete 160 hours of training. Additionally, due to its large network, it can often offer next-day — or even same-day — pest control.
Orkin will send a pest control expert to inspect your property to identify potential problems and develop an appropriate treatment plan. Each scheduled service comes with a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. If your pest problem isn't handled, your technician will return for another visit.
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of industry experience. The company provides expert pest control solutions all around the world. Rentokil is the parent company of several North American pest control providers including J.C. Ehrlich, Western Exterminator, and Presto-X, which can provide tailored services.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both eliminating existing pests and preventing future infestations. Depending on where you live, Rentokil may cover wildlife like rodents, snakes, and birds.
Pest control companies aren't all equal when it comes to reputation, qualifications, and competence. It’s important to research companies to find the right one for your specific circumstance. Here are the key factors to consider when hiring a pest control professional:
Look for a pest control company that can address the type of pest you have, whether it’s rodents, roaches, bed bugs, termites, or something else. The company should be able to describe how they treat your type of pest.
When choosing a pest control company, 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 demonstrates that the technicians have adequate training. Inquire with the company about its policies for continuing education and the total training hours required for technicians.
Read online reviews on Google and Yelp before scheduling a pest control appointment. This can help you determine for yourself 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 ongoing regular training to stay current on the most up-to-date pest control methods. When you select a company from our list of the top pest control in Taylorsville, 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 services that use “green” certified 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, and if you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need stronger traditional methods. 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 companies typically offer service guarantees for ongoing plans. The guarantees mean the provider will make another visit and re-treat for free if your home still has pests after the initial visit. One-time treatments may not come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have compiled a list of a few highly reviewed exterminator services, have conversations with each of them and come prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
Take the time to thoroughly evaluate pest control companies using these questions. This will help you select the best provider to safely and successfully eliminate your pest problem at a fair price.
Taylorsville is home to several pests, from insects to wildlife. We reviewed around 10 million social media posts to uncover the most common pests plaguing local homes.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They're highly regarded in the industry and cover all common pests.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is getting a pest control company to come to your house once every quarter. Getting your property sprayed regularly will stop insects and animals from returning.
To find the right pest control company for you, the key is to take time to do diligent research. We recommend getting estimates from multiple companies and reading through reviews to help figure out which company is the right one for you.
Whether you should do pest control yourself or hire an exterminator depends on the situation. You’ll want to take into consideration factors like how much the pest control will cost, the size of the infestation, and what chemicals need to be used. In addition, you may want to also consider professional pest control if you're concerned about safety.
Many Taylorsville 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 providers for an estimate.
If you already have a serious infestation, you should seek pest control as soon as possible. However, if you just want preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional spray your house is in the spring before nest and colony numbers get too high when it's warmer. However, it’s never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or in other seasons and see effective results.
