Orkin or Terminix pest control?

Which one is better for the money, Orkin pest control or Terminix? We have more bugs than usual in this state of florida during the summer so i plan on having someone come out next week but I need to know which one is better. I made an appt with Orkin already and it's really expensive and you have to sign up for 1 year but i'm hearing some not so good opinions about the company...anyone have any experiences with any company, please let me know?? I want to get rid of the bugs for good and don't want to be disappointed with the service i get ! =)

1. c they use the same pesticides.it all depends on who is doing the service.each exterminator mixes his own pesticides so it depends on how much they dilute it.
2. Hi, I am also from Florida and had a termite infestation this year. I used Al Hoffer's pest control and was very pleased with their service. I used servicemagic.com to check for customer reviews. In general, the local pest control companies have lower prices, due to lower costs.
3. Linda.I is correct. Orkin and Terminex are very expensive. There are very many fine small local local companies. Most all require two visits for total eradication the first time. You will never get rid of the bugs for good. Have them come out once a year to keep them gone.
