Did you know that keeping the kitchen and bathroom clean with disinfectants can reduce the number of pests in your house considerably? Regular and periodic cleaning, maintaining hygiene, removing clutter, and preventing water stagnation are a few of the basic steps to prevent pest infestation. Despite such efforts, there are three pests: termites, cockroaches, and bedbugs, which can be removed only by professional pest control services.

Guidelines to choose the right pest control service

Verify licenses: The agency should have a legal license from the state and local agencies. Ask them if their employees are bonded – it implies that the company will reimburse you for any loss or damage caused by their employees. The company should also be insured for any accidental pollution.

Gather information: Talk to multiple service providers in detail about free inspection before a quote, chemicals they use and specific active ingredients, risk of allergies or any adverse reactions, type of pesticide, and method of application. Furthermore, even confirm what you should do before and after an application to reduce exposure to pesticides and how to ensure the prevention of future pest infestations.

Choose the company that is transparent and discloses all necessary information.

Research online: Find information and reviews about service providers. Ask for recommendations in your neighborhood community, circle of friends, and family before shortlisting one.

Guarantee of service: Companies should guarantee that there will be no subsequent pest infestations for x number of months or years after treatment.

Based on the above parameters, track record, years of experience, customer satisfaction, and reviews. To help you, here are the top pest control services in the country.
