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 narrowed down the top pest control companies by considering factors like customer satisfaction, coverage, types of pest control treatments offered, industry experience, and more.
Here’s how Innsbrook’s top providers ranked:
Terminix has several hundred branches in over 22 countries and has been in business for almost 100 years. With this experience, it’s easy to see why Terminix is a top choice for many homeowners.
Terminix deals with all types of pest problems for homeowners and business owners. These include ants, opossums, roaches, spiders, raccoons, termites, and rodents. Along with pest control, Terminix offers other services, including home disinfection services, mechanical exclusion, attic insulation, and moisture control.
With more than 100 years of experience, Orkin is one of the largest pest control companies in the country. Its exterminators have to complete 160 hours of training. And, due to its large network, it can often offer next-day — or even same-day — service.
Orkin offers a professional property inspection to identify issues and draw up an appropriate treatment plan. Orkin can set up regular follow-up visits. Also, if you end up with recurrent pest problems or any other urgent pest control needs, you can contact Orkin’s customer service.
Rentokil has been helping homeowners rid themselves of common pests for over 90 years. Rentokil is the parent company of top North American pest control providers like Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X, which provide tailored services.
Rentokil offers integrated pest management (IPM) services, focusing on both getting rid of current pests and preventing future infestations. The company guarantees satisfaction with its treatments. If you still have pests after service, Rentokil will visit again until the issue is resolved.
Not all pest control services are the same when it comes to credibility, proficiency, and capability. 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 professional:
Look for a pest control company that has extensive experience treating the type of pest you're dealing with, whether it's rodents, roaches, bed bugs, termites, or something else. The company should thoroughly describe on their website its area of expertise.
When selecting a pest control company, look for technicians with certifications in pest control methods from respected industry associations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to proper state licensing. Solid credentials show that the technicians have completed proper training. Also ask about required training hours and continuing education.
Read online reviews on Google and Yelp before committing to a pest control provider. This can help you confirm 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 consistent training to stay current on the most up-to-date pest control methods. When you select a provider from our list of the top pest control in Innsbrook, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
Search for companies with “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 squirrels. Keep in mind that stronger treatments might be a better option for major infestations. Regardless of what methods you choose, all pesticides (besides those classified as minimal risk) are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reliable pest control professionals normally offer service guarantees for recurring plans. These guarantees mean the company will make another visit and re-treat your home at no cost if there are still pests after the first treatment. One-time services may not include reservice guarantees.
Once you have identified your top exterminators, reach out to each one to ask these questions:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control companies using these questions. This will help you choose the right provider to safely and successfully resolve your pest problem at a fair price.
It's important to know which pests you're bound to see in Innsbrook. We came up with a list of the most common pests in the city by analyzing which pests were frequently mentioned on social media.
The top pest control providers are Terminix and Orkin. They cover all common pests, service locations all around the nation, and have been in the industry for several decades.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is getting a pest control company to come to your home once every quarter or every two to three months. Getting your property sprayed regularly will stop insects and animals from returning.
There are some pests you can get rid of yourself. For example, if you see a few ants or a stray spider, chances are you can get rid of it on your own. But some infestations warrant bringing in the professionals. If you have a large infestation, you aren’t sure what the pest is, or would like preventative pest control, you should hire a pest control company.
Many Innsbrook 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 figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several providers for an estimate.
We advise quarterly pest control, or even bi-monthly in Innsbrook, where pests can be more common because of the heat. For more serious infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments over the course of the first three to six months.
