Find a pest exterminator near Miami, FL

Miami is among the top 50 cities in the U.S. that require bed bug treatments, according to several industry reports. And in Florida, tropical bed bugs have made a reappearance after being absent for 60 years.

If you suspect you might have a bed bug problem, contact top-rated bed bug exterminators in Miami to assess the infestation and come up with a treatment plan.

First, compare the top-rated exterminators in Miami and read the reviews. The reviews give you a glimpse into customers’ experiences with each company, often with before and after photos to show you the quality of their work. 

Next, make sure that any company you work with is licensed. The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services requires that structural pest control companies have a license to operate.

Once you’ve selected the most reputable companies to handle your pest problem, start gathering estimates. Give the professionals information about your pest problem so they can send you an accurate estimate of how much their services will cost you.

The best Miami exterminators have various rates for their services, and you may find some who charge less than $100. But your costs will ultimately depend on the type of treatment you require — bed bug extermination, for instance, is significantly more expensive than general pest control. Other factors include the scale and severity of the infestation.

Ask exterminators in your area if they would be willing to offer a consultation over a phone call or video chat. You can then ask them any questions you have about the upcoming appointment. Make sure to ask what precautions they are taking to keep everyone safe during the COVID-19 pandemic and whether they are observing social distancing guidelines. You may ask them if it's possible to conduct the appointment virtually or without person-to-person contact. 

Essential service providers during the COVID-19 crisis are defined by individual states, cities and localities. For the most accurate information, visit your official state or city government website to see what is considered an essential service. 

CISA is the government agency that defines critical workers on a national level, so you can check its website for more information. However, note that not all jurisdictions follow CISA’s definitions of critical infrastructure. 

If you need pest extermination services inside your home, talk to the exterminator first to be sure that you both feel comfortable completing the project. Also, follow the CDC’s guidelines on social distancing. You can also arrange with the exterminator to take extra steps to stay safe, such as waving instead of shaking hands, staying at least 6 feet apart, using digital payments and sanitizing any common spaces before and after the project is complete. 

You may be able to use digital payments such as Venmo, Apple Pay, PayPal, Venmo, Square Cash or Zelle to pay for extermination services. Many businesses accept methods of payment besides cash and credit cards. Check with pest control services in your area to see if they have changed their payment methods as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

If you have an outdoor pest infestation, it’s unlikely an exterminator will need to enter your home. But if your pest infestation is inside your home, the exterminator will likely need to enter your home. Check with the exterminator beforehand to explain the extent of the problem, the layout of your house and see if they can complete the job outdoors. You can also ask the exterminator to video chat or set up a phone call to exchange as much information as possible before you begin the project. 

Typically, extermination takes place at your home or place of business, but you can ask if the business is offering special accommodations due to the COVID-19 pandemic. If you come across a profile that states the exterminator is offering remote services, ask what those services include. But if the job has to be done in person, be sure to follow the CDC’s guidelines on social distancing or see if you can postpone your appointment.
