Residential Pest Control
Residential pest control pricing can vary depending on several factors, including the type of pest, the severity of the infestation, the size of your home, and the region you live in. However, here’s a general overview of typical costs:
One-Time Treatment
General Pest Control (Ants, Roaches, etc.):
- One-time treatments can range from $150 to $300 depending on the size of the property and the level of infestation.
Termite Inspections & Treatment:
- For termites, inspections usually cost around $100 to $300, while treatment can range from $1,000 to $2,500 or more, depending on the extent of the infestation and the type of treatment (liquid treatments, bait systems, etc.).
Bed Bugs:
- Bed bug extermination can be particularly costly, ranging from $500 to $2,000 or more for full-home treatments, as multiple treatments may be required.
Monthly or Quarterly Plans
Many pest control companies offer ongoing plans where you pay on a recurring basis. Typical prices for monthly or quarterly service plans range from:
- $40 to $70 per month or $100 to $300 per quarter.
These plans generally include regular inspections, treatments as necessary, and preventative measures.
Rodent Control
- Initial inspection and setting up traps: $100 to $250.
- Ongoing monitoring or exclusion services: Monthly charges typically range from $50 to $150 depending on the complexity of the issue.
Other Specialized Treatments
- Flea Treatments: If your home has a flea infestation, treatments can cost between $150 to $400.
- Mosquito Control: Treatments to control mosquitoes typically cost between $100 to $300 for a one-time spray or $50 to $100 for monthly services.
- Wildlife Control (squirrels, raccoons, etc.): The cost for removal and exclusion of wildlife can range from $200 to $600, depending on the species and severity of the issue.
Factors That Affect Pricing:
- Size of the property: Larger homes or properties may require more product or labor, increasing the cost.
- Severity of the infestation: Heavier infestations may need more intensive treatment, which can raise prices.
- Location: Prices vary based on regional differences in labor costs and pest control demand.
- Type of pest: Some pests (like termites or bed bugs) require specialized treatments that can be more expensive.
For typical residential households dealing with common pests, the cost of pest control varies based on the type of service and the severity of the issue.
