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 comparing factors like industry experience, types of pest control treatments offered, customer satisfaction, coverage, and more.
Here’s how they ranked:
Terminix’s headquarters are in Memphis, Tennessee, but it has branches in 45 states and several countries globally. It has also been in the industry for about 100 years. The company offers effective pest control services that are safe for you and your family.
Terminix helps with dozens of pests in Kaukauna, and it guarantees that your pest problems will be solved. Terminix offers a free inspection. A qualified technician will assess your situation and give you a suitable control plan.
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 excellent consumer reviews and well-trained pest control specialists who all complete 160 hours of training.
Pests Orkin handles are moths, bees, hornets, crickets, centipedes, yellow jackets, cockroaches, mice, carpenter ants, ticks, and more. After the first visit, your technician will follow up regularly to ensure that the pests have not returned. If they have, your local technicians can assist
Rentokil is a service group with over 90 years of industry experience. The company provides expert pest control treatments for homeowners and business owners. 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 deal with the following pests: wasps, crickets, moths, mosquitoes, spiders, ants, bed bugs, cockroaches, flies, and bees. Rentokil’s treatments are child- and pet-friendly.
Pest control businesses vary in credibility, expertise, and competence. It's important to research businesses to find the right fit for your pest problem. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control company:
Look for a pest control company that can address the type of pest you have, whether it’s bed bugs, termites, roaches, rodents, or something else. The company should be able to explain their approach for treating your type of pest.
When choosing a pest control provider, look for technicians that hold certifications from respected industry associations, such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), on top of proper state licensing. The right credentials show that the technicians have completed proper training. Also ask about continuing education policies and total training hours.
We advise looking at customer reviews prior to scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and similar sites can tell you whether a company consistently provides quality service and has happy customers. Also check the Better Business Bureau website for any complaints that have been filed. Ask about the kind of continuing education technicians receive to stay current on the latest pest control techniques and treatment methods. When you choose a provider from our list of Kaukauna's best pest control, 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 companies that promote “green” accredited solutions. You can also ask about trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or squirrels in your attic. However, natural options may be less effective for serious infestations. If you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need stronger traditional methods. No matter your approach to pest control, all pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk are required to be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control professionals usually offer service guarantees for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a provider will return to re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the initial treatment. One-off treatments typically don't include these reservice guarantees.
Once you have identified your top pest control providers, reach out to each one with these questions:
Assess potential pest control companies based on their answers to these questions. This will enable you to select the best provider to effectively fix your pest problem at a reasonable cost.
You should be aware of the pests you're bound to come across as a resident of Kaukauna. To give you an idea of the most prevalent pests in the city, we examined the pests discussed in around 10 million social media posts.
The top pest control providers are Orkin and Terminix. They cover all common pests, service many locations, and have been in the industry 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.
Pest control chemicals are safe but must be handled by a professional. If you have any questions about the safety of the chemicals — such as if they're safe around children and pets — or are wondering how long you should stay out of your house after using them, you can ask the exterminator. Typically, you should remain outside your home for two to four hours after spraying.
Many Kaukauna homeowners wonder about the cost of pest control. Monthly pest control typically costs $40 to $70 a visit. Quarterly pest control costs about $110 to $250 a visit. To find out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several companies for a quote.
We recommend quarterly pest control treatments, or even bi-monthly if you'd like more protection. For more serious infestations, your exterminator may recommend monthly treatments over the course of the first three to six months.
