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 narrowed it down to these pest control companies by comparing state availability, pest control treatments offered, costs, customer reviews, contracts, and more.
Here’s how the top pest control companies in Weston ranked:
Terminix has several hundred branches in more than 22 countries and has been in business for over 90 years. Terminix has received several awards for its service, including Angie's List Super Service Award 2017, Watauga County Best of the Best, and Triad's Best Exterminator.
Terminix’s specialty termite services are their most widely known service, but they help with much more than that. Their other services include: spiders, ticks, ants, mosquitoes, cockroaches, rodents, and wildlife control including raccoons, squirrels, skunks, opossums, and more. Terminix’s typical pest regimen consists of a home inspection and initial treatment, with three seasonal treatments over the course of a year.
Orkin has more than 100 years of experience in the industry and is one of the most trustworthy pest control companies in the country. It has positive consumer reviews and trained exterminators who all complete 160 hours of training.
Orkin’s typical pest control service plan is its annual pest control contract. Each pest control contract comes with a 30-day guarantee. If initial treatments are ineffective, your exterminator will come back for another visit.
Rentokil has been helping homeowners and business owners rid themselves of common pests for over 90 years. Rentokil is the parent company of top North American pest control providers such as Presto-X, J.C. Ehrlich, and Western Exterminator, which can provide individual services.
Rentokil and its partners control for the following pests: crickets, spiders, mosquitoes, flies, bed bugs, moths, ants, wasps, cockroaches, and bees. Rentokil’s treatments are safe for your pets and children.
Not all pest control providers are the identical in credibility, skill set, and effectiveness. Researching businesses helps you identify the right choice for your pest circumstance. Focus on these key factors when choosing a pest control provider:
Look for a pest control company that has experience handling the type of pest you have, whether it’s rodents, roaches, bed bugs, termites, or something else. The company should be able to describe how they treat your type of pest.
When choosing a pest control company, look for technicians that are licensed by the state and certified in pest control methods by industry associations such as the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). Having these credentials demonstrates that a technician has adequate training. Ask the company about the training hours required for its technicians as well as its policies for continuing education.
We advise checking out customer reviews before scheduling a pest control appointment. Google, Yelp, and similar sites will show 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 the top pest control in Weston, you can feel confident knowing that you're hiring an expert that meets our quality and review standards.
If you prefer natural pest control methods, look for providers that advertise “green” accreditation. For bigger animals such as mice or squirrels, ask if a provider offers humane trapping and relocation. But keep in mind natural options may not work as well for significant infestations. If you have a substantial pest problem, you may need stronger traditional solutions. Whether you choose eco-friendly or traditional options, any pesticides that are classified as greater than minimal risk must be registered with the EPA.
Reputable pest control companies usually offer service guarantees for continuing plans. The warranties mean that a provider will come back to re-treat your home at no cost if pests remain after the initial treatment. One-off treatments typically don't include these reservice warranties.
Once you have narrowed down your top pest control providers, contact each one with questions such as:
Take the time to thoroughly evaluate pest control companies using these questions. This will help you choose the most qualified provider to safely and successfully eliminate your pest problem at a fair price.
Different pests show up in different places. In Weston, there are a few different ones that residents may deal with. To help you prepare for the most common pests, we examined various social media sites and compiled a list of the ones mentioned the most.
Our top picks for the best pest control companies are Orkin and Terminix. They're well-respected in the industry and help get rid of all common pests.
Hiring a pest control company and having a professional spray your property every quarter is the best way to prevent future pest infestations. This deters insects and animals from coming inside your house.
The key to finding the best pest control company for you is to get in touch with several companies and get estimates from them. You should also make sure to read reviews to check their reputation and customer satisfaction.
Many Weston homeowners wonder 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 figure out exactly how much it will cost for you, we recommend contacting several providers for a quote.
If you already have a serious infestation, you should get pest control as soon as possible. However, if you’re just interested in preventative pest control, the best time of year to have a professional come spray your house is in the spring before 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 any other season and see effective results.
