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:
The team at Today's Homeowner identified the top pest control companies by comparing state availability, costs, customer reviews, and more.
This is how the top pest control companies in Greenbriar ranked:
Founded in 1927, Terminix has almost 100 years of experience in the pest control business. It uses the latest innovations in pest control to rid your home of pests wherever they are.
Terminix provides both one-off extermination services and seasonal pest control. In addition, every contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. Their service also comes with follow-up visits and annual inspections to help keep your home pest-free.
Orkin Pest Control’s headquarters are in Atlanta, Georgia. It is one of the oldest pest control companies with a expansive network of branches. It has positive consumer reviews and well-trained exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Pests Orkin deals with are earwigs, spiders, centipedes, mice, termites, carpenter ants, silverfish, moths, rats, hornets, and more. Orkin can schedule regular follow-up visits. Also, if you have recurring problems or any other immediate pest control needs, you can contact Orkin’s customer service.
Rentokil is a respected name in pest control, with providers across the world and nearly a century of experience in the industry. Rentokil is the parent company of several North American pest control providers like Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X, which provide individual services.
Rentokil and its partners handle the following pests: flies, spiders, cockroaches, wasps, ants, bed bugs, mosquitoes, crickets, bees, and moths. The company guarantees satisfaction with its treatments. If you still have pests after service, Rentokil will make as many visits as needed to resolve the issue.
Not all pest control services are equal when it comes to credibility, qualifications, and effectiveness. It's important to do your research to determine the most suitable option for your specific pest problem. Focus on these key factors when selecting a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that specializes in treating the pest you have, like rodents, roaches, bed bugs, or termites. The company should explain their process for treating your type of pest.
When choosing a pest control provider, look for technicians that have the proper state licensing and are certified in pest control methods by industry associations such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). Possessing these credentials shows 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.
Read online reviews on Google and Yelp before committing to a pest control provider. 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 latest pest control methods. When you select a provider from our list of Greenbriar's best pest control, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer more eco-friendly and natural pest control solutions, look for providers that have "green" accreditations. If you’re dealing with larger pests, such as mice or squirrels invading your attic, you can also ask about humane catch and release methods. Keep in mind that natural pest control options may be less effective; consider a more traditional route if dealing with a serious infestation. No matter your approach to pest control, any pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Leading pest control companies 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 eliminated. One-time treatments may not come with reservice guarantees.
Once you have compiled a list of a few top contending pest control companies, reach out to each of them and come prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
Analyze potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will allow you to choose the best provider to effectively solve your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
There are a variety of pests in Greenbriar, ranging from harmless nuisances to ones that can damage your home. To help you prepare for the most commonly seen pests, we studied posts on social media and created a list of the ones mentioned the most.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies are Terminix and Orkin. They're well-respected 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 home once every quarter. Regularly spraying your property will stop insects and animals from returning.
To find the right pest control company for you, the key is to take time to research your options thoroughly. We recommend getting estimates from several companies and reading through reviews to help figure out which company is the right one for you.
Many Greenbriar homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically costs $40 to $70 a visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 per visit. To find out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several providers for an estimate.
Spring is the best time for preventative pest control. The reason is nests and colony numbers will get much higher as it gets warmer, so pest control in the spring can help prevent you from getting too many pests later.
