How Much Does Pest Control Cost?

When it comes to keeping your home pest-free, cost is often one of the first considerations.

But price shouldn’t be the only thing that matters when choosing a pest control service.

At Paladin Pest Control, we believe that while affordability is important, there are several other factors that homeowners should weigh when selecting a pest control provider.

Here’s a breakdown of what you need to know about pest control costs and the additional value you should look for.

Average Market Pest Control Costs

Pest control costs can vary widely depending on the type of service you need, the size of your home, and the severity of the infestation.

Here are some general averages to help you understand what to expect. These prices are based on data from reputable industry sources and can fluctuate depending on your location and specific needs.

• Initial Visit: $150 to $300

• Monthly Maintenance: $40 to $70 per month

• Quarterly Service: $120 to $300 per visit

• One-Time Treatment: $250 to $600

• Specialized Treatments (e.g., termites, bed bugs): $500 to $2,000+

Why Price Isn’t Everything

While it’s tempting to go with the lowest bidder, choosing a pest control company involves more than just cost. Here are some other critical factors to consider:

1. A Bug-Free Guarantee

Reputable pest control companies should stand by their work. Look for providers that offer a guarantee to return and re-treat your home at no extra cost if pests persist. Paladin Pest Control always honors their bug-free guarantee.

2. No Contract Cancellation Penalties

Life happens, and your circumstances might change. Choose a company that offers flexibility in their contracts, allowing you to cancel without hefty penalties if needed. Paladin Pest Control never imposes contract penalties for cancellation. We keep our customers by the quality of our service.

3. Local Expertise

A local pest control company will understand the unique pest challenges in your area. They’re also more likely to provide personalized service than a large, national chain. Paladin Pest Control is a small business, local to Hays County.

4. Customer Reviews

Online reviews are a great way to gauge a company’s reputation. Look for providers with consistently high ratings and positive customer feedback. Check out our ratings below.

5. Licensed and Insured Technicians

Always choose a company whose technicians are fully licensed and insured. This ensures they are trained professionals who know how to safely and effectively handle pest problems.
