999 None of the major pest control companies seemed interested in more than quarterly service to bait traps. After inspecting my home, the folks from BioTech were quick to point out problem areas, suggest solutions, and get the work done quickly. While the price was high, I haven't seen or heard...
BioTech Pest ManagementThey've been responsive, stand by their work, always come in the time period they prescribe, and have come back more frequently than hired, at no additional expense, to help get the rodent problem under control. Their prices are very reasonable and the technicians are always friendly and...
This group branch or Orkin is by far the WORST pest control service we have ever had. The service was lousy and they refuse to return any calls or honor their 100% guarantee. A complete waste of money. I've had good experiences with Orkin in the past when I lived in other states, but this...
This company did a pest control for one of our neighbors. The exhaust fumes from their equipment permeated our house and made it barely tolerable for my wife and sick child. Although they apologized to both me and my wife their actions during their pest management of our neighbors' house...
American PestTheir responsiveness, quality, and professionalism are excellent. I would recommend MTB Pest Control.
MTB Pest ControlMr. Devery Travers, certified inspector for CroppMetcalfe's pest control arm, impressed me enormously. When I spotted a mouse in my small one-bedroom condo one night, a friend suggested I call Devery. He showed up the very next day and did a complementary assessment of my unit. He ...
Pender Exotics: I can't say enough wonderful things about the doctors, technicians and administrative staff at Pender. I have been taking my birds there for two years and I wish I had sucked up the 45 minute drive previous to my first visit. Maybe my sweet parakeet Snowbie would still be...
We had no problems and they were totally satisfactory. They were very polite and professional. They were very interested in not trimming too many branches back because of the impact it would have on birds and such. They were very environmentally conscious.
SavATree - Maryland & Washington DCMy house is cooled and heated with a damper to control upstairs and downstairs separately. It stopped working and all of the other air conditioning repair people told me it would cost me thousands of dollars to replace because the device to control the air was homemade.

PestNow brand was founded in Virginia in 1995 as Superior Pest Management when four high school friends came together to form their own company. Today, we have multiple locations in three states, and serve thousands of happy customers. We offer pest control; termite treatments and warranties; mosquito, flea & tick control; WDIs (real estate inspections); lawn fertilization & weed control; TAP insulation; and wildlife solutions for homeowners and businesses in the mid-Atlantic.
"PestNow was hired to inspect our house for termites. This was required by the lender of the family buying our house. PestNow found a pile of wood leaning up against a deck column they said needed repair due to termite damage. PestNow also required the entire house be treated. There were no termites found anywhere other than the pile of wood, according to PestNow. They quoted us for over $800 to treat the house. We questioned the need and amount so they lowered it to $580. As a result of PestNow stating they found termites in the deck column, the lender of the buyers required the deck column be repaired due to termite damage. The deck repair company assessed the deck column agreeing it needed to be repaired, but not due to termites, rather moisture. I question whether PestNow found termites at all. Their unethical tactics cost us well over $1,000. Beware of PestNow."

"Don’t waste your money with this firm. They don’t deliver. About a year ago, I was convinced by a salesman of the company that the scratching noises I was hearing in my house were caused by mice roaming around in the walls of the house. I spent over $12,000 and took on a $150 quarterly maintenance plan to get rid of the mice. The company replaced all insulation in my attic and other areas. Also, the company told me they sealed all holes that the mice might use to enter the house. Over the past year, I have complained repeatedly about the mice still roaming around in my house. Most times, an agent would come to the house, look around the outside and place glue traps in areas inside the house. These are amateurish actions I could undertake myself. Recently, I complained by letter to the owner of Century, Mr. Brett Nunn, about my mice problem. Mr. Nunn did not respond to my letter."

"The provider set up treatment outside, but the customer has experienced respiratory issues since then and still has rodents and bugs. Despite instructions not to apply anything inside, chemicals appear to have seeped into the floorboards, worsening her health. The provider charged over $4k plus $185 every three months but did not install traps to catch rodents. The customer does not want them to return and reports the basement is in disarray, contributing to the ongoing issues."

We serve the greater DC-Baltimore area, including Washington DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia.
Different pest control methods exist to help mitigate an infestation. Not every technique will work with every pest, which is why speaking with a pest control expert is crucial to taming your problem. Different methods of pest removal include:
Heat treatments
Freezing treatments
Traps
Barriers
Chemical pesticides
Fumigation
Rodenticides
Mechanical devices
Repellants
The cost of pest control is $175 for the average homeowner. However, you could spend as little as $100 or as much as $500 or more, depending on the infestation size, the number of visits you need, and the pest you’re exterminating.
For example, if you need to rid your home of spiders, you’ll likely be spending between $100 and $300. However, if you have a termite problem, you can expect a bill of $230 to $2,500 or more, depending on the infestation size and damage caused.
Animal removal specialists specialize in removing critters and wildlife from in and around your home. These include:
Bats
Birds
Groundhogs
Moles and voles
Opossums
Mice and rats
Raccoons
Skunks
Squirrels
The specialist's method to remove these critters will depend on the animal. For example, groundhogs will be live-trapped and relocated, whereas, for birds, the expert will remove and discard the inactive nest and sanitize the area.
Professional animal removal costs between $200 and $600 for average homeowners. However, depending on the type and number of critters removed, this cost could range from $85 to $1,400.
This cost does not include the cost of home damage caused by the animal, which could be as low as $300 for minor drywall repair or as much as $15,000 for crawl space cleaning and restoration.
Even if you’re not immediately showing signs of pests, it’s a good idea to get into the habit of routine pest control. This should be done yearly, quarterly, bi-monthly, or monthly, depending on your location and if any signs of infestation are already present. For example, if you live by water, you might experience more pests in the spring and summer than someone who lives in a dry climate. Discuss treatment options with your pest professional to determine a suitable schedule for you and your home.
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
