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, industry experience, coverage, types of pest control treatments offered, and more.
Here’s how Issaquah’s top providers ranked:
Terminix is one of the largest and oldest pest control companies in the world, with branches in 45 states and 22 other countries. Terminix has received several awards for its service, including Pest Control Technology Magazine’s Top 100 Pest Control Companies, The Business Journal’s FAST 50, and Triad's Best Exterminator.
Terminix’s specialty termite services are their most widely known service, but they deal with much more than that. Their other services include: spiders, mosquitoes, ticks, ants, rodents, cockroaches, and wildlife control such as squirrels, skunks, opossums, raccoons, and more. Terminix’s typical pest regimen consists of a home inspection and preliminary treatment, with three seasonal treatments during the year.
Started in 1901 by a rat poison salesman named Otto, the Orkin brand has evolved into one of the most trusted in the pest control industry. Its pest control specialists must undergo 160 hours of training. Additionally, because of its large network, it can often provide next-day — or even same-day — pest control.
Pests Orkin helps with are earwigs, moths, spiders, bed bugs, yellow jackets, centipedes, cockroaches, scorpions, fleas, carpenter ants, and more. Orkin can arrange 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 is a respected name in pest control, with providers across the globe and close to a century of experience in the industry. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of quite a few regional pest control providers like Western Exterminator, J.C. Ehrlich, and Presto-X.
Rentokil exterminates the common pests in Issaquah, including wasps, ants, moths, bed bugs, crickets, mosquitoes, flies, bees, spiders, and cockroaches. Rentokil’s services cover preventative maintenance, treatment, and monitoring for pest infestations.
Pest control providers vary in credibility, expertise, and effectiveness. 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 provider:
It's best to choose a pest control company that can effectively address your specific problem, whether it's termites, bed bugs, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should clearly describe on their website its expertise with your specific pest.
Look for pest control companies with technicians that have certifications in pest control methods from expert organizations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), in addition to state licensing. Holding the proper credentials shows that the technicians have received adequate training. You'll also want to ask about ongoing educational requirements.
Before booking an appointment, take the time to read online reviews on sites such as Google or Yelp to see which providers have a reputation for providing effective service and positive customer experiences. Also look for any complaints via the Better Business Bureau. Ask about the ongoing training the company’s technicians receive to ensure they stay up to date on the latest pest control methods and treatments. When you choose an exterminator from our list of Issaquah's best pest control, you can rest easy knowing 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" certifications. If you’re dealing with larger pests, such as mice or raccoons nesting in trees, you can also ask about humane catch and release. Keep in mind that natural pest control options may be less effective. You may need to consider a more traditional route for a more serious infestation. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, all pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control companies usually offer service guarantees for continuing plans. The guarantees mean that a provider will come back to re-treat your home free of charge if pests remain after the first treatment. One-off treatments typically don't include these reservice warranties.
Once you have selected a few top-rated pest management providers, reach out to each one and come prepared to ask these kinds of questions:
Assess potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will allow you to choose a qualified provider to effectively fix your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
Many kinds of pests can find their way into Issaquah houses. Some are just harmless, but others can damage your home and your health. All of them can give homeowners anxiety. We reviewed around 10 million online conversations to identify which pests were causing the most trouble for residents.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies in Issaquah are Orkin and Terminix. They're well known in the industry and help get rid of 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. Regularly spraying your property will stop insects and other wildlife from coming back.
Whether you should do pest control yourself or hire a company depends on your situation. You’ll want to take into consideration factors like the size of the infestation, what chemicals need to be used, and how much the pest control will cost. Additionally, you may want to also consider professional pest control if you're concerned about safety or pets.
Many Issaquah homeowners are concerned about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically costs $40 to $70 per visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 a visit. To find out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend getting in touch with several pest control providers for an estimate.
For apartments and homes, quarterly 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 infestation is resolved.
