Full services directory How it worksFor prosAbout Get matched Call (866) 582-8523Pest control services fall into four groups: one-time treatment for a specific problem, recurring general pest plans, specialty work such as termites, bed bugs or rodents, and exclusion work that seals a building against entry. This Old House puts a typical professional visit at $50-$500, with a national average of $171 for a standard infestation in 2026.
A one-time treatment targets what you have now. This Old House's 2026 figures by pest: ants $100-$500, rodents $180-$600, wasps $300-$700, termites $250-$1,000, bed bugs $1,000-$4,000. Tented fumigation is the most expensive at $1,500-$8,000.
A recurring plan is preventive: scheduled visits to keep common pests suppressed. It is not a fix for an active infestation of something specialized. Read what's covered — most general plans exclude termites, bed bugs and wildlife, which are sold separately.
Exclusion means sealing gaps, screening vents and repairing entry points. For rodents especially, this is the part that actually ends the problem; trapping without exclusion just makes room for the next ones.
The EPA's framework for all of this is integrated pest management: identify the pest, set an action threshold, prevent, and use "effective, less risky pest controls" first, with broadcast spraying as a last resort. A company that arrives, sprays a perimeter, and leaves without identifying anything is not doing that.
