Types of pests and their impact on pest control costs Pest control costs can vary greatly depending on the type of pest infesting your home. Termites, bed bugs, and rodents are typically the most costly to treat, as they often require specialized treatments and can cause extensive damage to your property.

A general pest control plan costs from $400 to $950 per year or from $30 to $50 per month, on average. Sometimes, hiring a professional pest control service is necessary to get rid of a severe pest infestation.

Based on our secret shopping, we found that the national average for general pest control plans is $51 per month or $152 for each quarterly pest control visit if that's how you prefer to pay. Specialized treatments for bedbugs, wildlife control or termites will increase that number.
