We do not collect or display customer reviews, and we do not accept payment for placement. Businesses can claim their listing to correct contact details, but the rank is fixed by the data.

- Ask for the VDACS pesticide business license. In Virginia, pest control need it from the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Verify it at the official Virginia license lookup before signing. A licensed company must employ a certified commercial applicator and carry at least $100,000 property damage and $100,000/$300,000 liability insurance.
- Written estimates. Any pest control specialist who won't put the scope in writing is a red flag.
- Review quality, not just volume. Read the 3-star reviews, they're usually the most honest.
- Local references. A pest control specialist who's done work in Clarendon or Ballston will understand local housing stock better than a regional chain.
