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:
We've narrowed down the best pest control companies so you can find the right provider for you. We assessed costs, state availability, customer reviews, pest control treatments offered, contracts, and more.
This is how we ranked the top pest control companies in Sheboygan:
Terminix is one of the biggest and longest running pest control companies in the world, with branches in 45 states and 22 other countries. Terminix has received numerous 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 provides both one-time extermination services and seasonal pest control. Additionally, every contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. Terminix’s general pest regimen consists of a home inspection and preliminary treatment, with three additional treatments during the year.
With more than 100 years of experience, Orkin is one of the most trustworthy pest control companies in the country. Its exterminators must complete 160 hours of training. In addition, because of its big network, it can usually offer next-day — or even same-day — service.
Pests Orkin handles are fleas, termites, crickets, centipedes, spiders, mice, moths, yellow jackets, scorpions, hornets, and more. Orkin’s general pest control plan is also seasonal, so your home will be treated several times during the year.
Rentokil, a service group, is the world's largest pest control company, which owns hundreds of brands worldwide. In North America, Rentokil is the parent company of quite a few local pest control providers like Western Exterminator, Presto-X, and J.C. Ehrlich.
Rentokil can protect your home from the common pests in Sheboygan, including cockroaches, bees, moths, wasps, spiders, flies, mosquitoes, ants, bed bugs, and crickets. After the initial inspection and treatment of your home, a technician will service your property every four months.
Not all pest control providers are the equal in credibility, qualifications, and proficiency. Evaluating companies helps you identify the right choice for your pest situation. Here are the key factors to consider when hiring a pest control provider:
Look for a pest control company that focuses their business on the pest you have, like rodents, roaches, bed bugs, or termites. The company should describe how they go about treating your type of pest.
The ideal exterminator will employ technicians that have state licenses and are certified in pest control methods by organizations like the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). These credentials indicate that the technicians have finished proper training. You'll also want to ask each company about continuing training for their employees.
Peruse reviews on Google, Yelp, and similar sites before scheduling a pest control appointment. Verify for yourself that the company reliably provides effective service and receives positive customer feedback. Also check for any Better Business Bureau complaints that have been filed. Ask whether technicians receive ongoing education on the latest and most innovative pest control treatments. When you select a provider from our list of the top pest control in Sheboygan, 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” accredited solutions. You can also ask about trapping options that don't harm larger pests like mice or raccoons nesting nearby. However, natural options may be less effective for serious infestations. If you’re dealing with a major pest problem you may need more potent chemical treatments. 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 providers usually offer service warranties for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a company will come back to re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the first treatment. One-off treatments may not include these reservice guarantees.
Once you have reduced your options to your top pest management companies, contact each one with questions such as:
Take the time to thoroughly review pest control companies using these questions. This will allow you to select the best provider to effectively control your pest situation at a fair price.
Sheboygan is home to a number of pests, from insects to wildlife. To give you an idea of the most widespread pests in the city, we analyzed the pests discussed in around 10 million social media posts.
The top pest control providers are Orkin and Terminix. They can treat all common pests, service many locations, and have been in the industry for several decades.
The best way to prevent a pest infestation is having a pest control company come to your house once every quarter or every two to three months. Spraying your property regularly will stop insects and animals from returning.
Pest control involves exterminating unwanted insects like termites, rodents, and other unwanted bugs or wildlife from your property. When you hire a pest control company, an exterminator will come and inspect your property. Then they will use various techniques to remove the pests and prevent them from returning, such as chemical or natural sprays, bait, and traps.
In a city like Sheboygan, where the cost of living is average compared to other cities, the cost of pest control may be a concern. How much pest control costs depends on several factors, including what kind of pests you have an issue with and how bad the infestation is. A single visit can cost between $300 and $500, while a quarterly treatment plan is generally cheaper — around $100 to $300 a visit.
If you already have a serious pest infestation, you should seek pest control as soon as possible. However, if you’d just like preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional spray your home is in the spring before nest and colony numbers get too high in the summer. However, it’s never too late for pest control. You can still spray in the summer or in other seasons and see effective results.
