The rankings in detail
1Top pick
Number 1: Pioneer Pest Services Inc.
4.9★Google rating from 1,620 reviews · verified July 8, 2026
What reviewers mention: lawn care, termite treatment, thorough inspections, weed control.
Pioneer Pest Services holds the top position on this list with a 4.9 Google rating drawn from 1,620 reviews, the largest review count of any pest control company on this page. That mix of a high average and a deep review base is what carries it to number one under our published scoring, which weighs both the rating and how many people left it. It operates from an Old Daytona Road address in DeLand, and its own site says it has served the area since 1985, about 41 years, a track record that also counts in the ranking. Reviewers bring up lawn care most often, along with termite treatment, thorough inspections, and weed control. On licensing, we assert nothing for Pioneer: Florida's FDACS registry was unreachable when we checked, so verify the company's current license with it directly before you sign anything.
2
Number 2: PURCOR Pest Solutions
4.9★Google rating from 1,154 reviews · verified July 8, 2026
What reviewers mention: courteous technicians, problem resolution, fire ant treatment, same-day appointments.
PURCOR Pest Solutions ranks second with a 4.9 Google rating across 1,154 reviews, the second-largest review base on this page behind Pioneer. It sits at number two rather than higher because our scoring also weighs how long a business has operated, and we could not verify a founding date for PURCOR from a source we accept, so we left that out rather than guess. Reviewers describe courteous technicians and steady problem resolution, and the profile notes fire ant treatment and same-day appointments among the work it handles. Its DeLand office sits on North Woodland Boulevard, and the company runs as part of a larger multi-state pest control platform. No license status appears for PURCOR either, since that same state registry stayed out of reach; ask the company for its current FDACS license. Skim a few recent reviews to see whether its strengths fit your job, and get the scope and price in writing first.
3
Number 3: Tony Webb Pest Control Inc
4.6★Google rating from 42 reviews · verified July 8, 2026
What reviewers mention: reliability, family-owned, prompt response, honest service.
Tony Webb Pest Control ranks third with a 4.6 Google rating across 42 reviews, running from a 10th Avenue address in DeLand. Its longevity is what lifts it: state records show the company has operated since 1998, about 28 years, and our scoring weighs a verified track record alongside the rating and the review count. Reviewers describe a reliable, family-owned operation, with comments about prompt response and honest service. We could not find a working company website for Tony Webb, only third-party listings, so we link its Google Business Profile for contact details rather than a company site. Its FDACS license status stays unshown, because the state registry was down when we looked; request the current one from the company. That verified tenure is why it outranks Driggers, a higher-rated but younger business. Look over a handful of recent reviews, and settle the price up front.
4
Number 4: Holder Pest & Termite Control
4.5★Google rating from 39 reviews · verified July 8, 2026
What reviewers mention: termite control, lawn care, reliable service, thorough inspections.
Holder Pest & Termite Control ranks fourth with a 4.5 Google rating from 39 reviews, based on South Spring Garden Avenue in DeLand. Its rating sits just below Tony Webb's, which is why it lands one spot lower, but it brings the longest track record on this page. The company's own site says it has served Volusia County since 1978, about 48 years; state incorporation records show a later 1987 date, and we note that gap for transparency while citing the company's own claim. Reviewers point to termite control and lawn care, along with comments about reliable, thorough service, though the sample is modest at 39 reviews. The state registry we rely on for FDACS licensing was unreachable, so Holder's license status stays unshown; confirm it with the company yourself. Check a few recent reviews to judge fit, and get the scope and price in writing before you hire.
5
Number 5: Driggers Pest Control, Inc.
4.9★Google rating from 35 reviews · verified July 8, 2026
Driggers Pest Control carries a 4.9 Google rating, tied for the highest on this page, but that average rests on 35 reviews, a smaller sample than the businesses above it. Our scoring weighs review volume and years in business alongside the rating, and Driggers has both a modest review base and a shorter track record, about 14 years since its 2012 state filing, which is why a near-perfect score lands it fifth rather than higher. Reviewers describe a locally owned company with friendly staff, punctual service, and satisfied customers. The company keeps its base on East New York Avenue in DeLand. Its own site names a license number, but with the FDACS registry out of reach we could not match it against the state's records, so that entry stays empty. Read the reviews closely, and agree on the cost up front before work begins.
6
Number 6: McMaster Lawn & Pest Services
3.5★Google rating from 48 reviews · verified July 8, 2026
What reviewers mention: lawn pest control, chinch bug treatment, irrigation services.
McMaster Lawn & Pest Services ranks sixth with a 3.5 Google rating across 48 reviews, the lowest rating on this page. We include it because our scoring is the same for every qualifying DeLand company, and the score reflects the rating rather than hiding it; a 3.5 average lands here on the math, not on any judgment we added. The business is genuinely new, working out of a North Garfield Avenue address in DeLand since its 2024 state filing, about two years, so its record is still short. Reviewers mention lawn pest control and chinch bug treatment, while its site lists irrigation among its services. We show no license status for McMaster: the FDACS registry was offline when we checked, so ask the company for its current one. With a rating this low, read the recent reviews carefully to see what drove them, then ask for a written quote before any work begins.
7
Number 7: Bugsy's Exterminating Inc
4.2★Google rating from 6 reviews · verified July 8, 2026
What reviewers mention: reliable service, friendly service.
Bugsy's Exterminating rounds out this list at number seven with a 4.2 Google rating drawn from 6 reviews, the smallest verified review count on the page. Two factors drag Bugsy's down by about the same amount. Its license verification score sits at zero, since our scoring cannot credit an unconfirmed registration. Its review base is just 6, too thin on its own to carry the rating far. Its shop sits on Limewood Avenue in DeLand, and reviewers describe reliable, friendly service. Bugsy's is the one company here where we found a matching FDACS record. As of our July 8, 2026 check, the most recent public record for license number JB255972 showed an expiration date that had already passed, and no renewal was confirmed, so we did not mark the license verified. Ask the company directly for its current FDACS status. With so few reviews, read each one, and get the scope and price in writing before any treatment begins.
How did we verify these pest control companies?
Every company here was checked against live Google Business Profile data on July 8, 2026: the star rating, the number of reviews behind it, and the listed DeLand address. We rank by criteria we publish, not by who pays, and no listing on this page is sponsored.
We start from Google Business Profile data because it is public, current, and hard to fake at volume. For each company we record the star rating, the total number of reviews, and the listed address or service area, then confirm the profile is live on the day we mark the page verified.
Our scoring turns those signals into a rank. Rating carries the most weight, followed by review volume, so a strong average across hundreds of reviews outweighs a perfect score built on a handful. Years in business and license status also count when we have verified them; where we have not, we leave it out rather than guess. Florida runs pest control business licensing through a separate FDACS registry that we could not access reliably this cycle, so we do not show a license status for most companies here. Ask each company directly for its current FDACS license. The full weighting lives on our methodology page, and no company can buy a higher position.
Who is the number one pest control company?
By our scoring, Pioneer Pest Services is the number one pick in DeLand, with a 4.9 Google rating across 1,620 reviews and more than four decades in business. PURCOR Pest Solutions and Tony Webb Pest Control follow. The full ranking and the criteria behind it sit on this page.
Pioneer earns the top spot the honest way: it pairs the highest review count on this list, 1,620, with a 4.9 rating and a track record that goes back to 1985 by the company's own account, about 41 years. When rating, review volume, and longevity all point the same direction, the math is not close. Reviewers mention lawn care, termite treatment, and thorough inspections most often.
Second place goes to PURCOR Pest Solutions, also 4.9 stars, on 1,154 reviews, the second-largest base here, though we could not verify its tenure. Tony Webb Pest Control takes third on a 4.6 rating and 28 years in business, edging Holder Pest & Termite Control, which has the longest track record on the page at 48 years but a slightly lower 4.5 rating. Driggers Pest Control holds a 4.9 rating too, but on only 35 reviews and a shorter 14-year track record, which together place it fifth. Get any job scoped and priced in writing before it starts.
What is the average cost of pest control in Florida?
There is no single number, and we do not publish price estimates without a verified local source. What you pay depends on the pest, the size of the property, and whether the visit is a one-time treatment or an ongoing plan. Ask each company for a written quote first.
Pest control costs vary too much to reduce to one figure, and we would rather say that plainly than print a number we cannot stand behind. A one-time treatment for a specific problem, a recurring quarterly plan, a fire ant lawn treatment, and a full termite job are very different in scope, and each spans a wide range depending on the property size, the pest, and the severity.
Recurring plans usually bill monthly or quarterly, while one-time visits, plus termite and similar work, are quoted on their own. Florida's warm, humid climate keeps many pests active year-round, which is part of why ongoing plans are common here. The reliable way to know what a job will cost is to get a written estimate from more than one company before work starts, and to ask whether the quote covers the initial visit, follow-ups, and any warranty or retreatment. When we have verified pricing data from a credible local source, we will add it here.
What should you look for in a DeLand pest control company?
Start with signals you can verify: a steady rating across a real number of reviews, a local DeLand address or a clearly stated service area, and a specialty that matches your pest. Then confirm the company's current FDACS license directly before any treatment begins.
A high rating means more when it holds up across a large number of reviews, so weigh the average and the volume together rather than trusting a perfect score built on a handful of ratings. Look for a local DeLand address or a clearly stated service area, a sign the company works nearby rather than routing calls from far away.
Match the specialty to your problem. The companies here list work such as termite treatment, lawn care, fire ant treatment, weed control, and chinch bug treatment, and not every company does all of it. Watch how the company responds in recent reviews when a treatment does not take the first time, which matters more than the headline number. Confirm the company's current FDACS license and insurance directly, since we could not verify it ourselves, and ask about warranties or free retreatment between visits. Settle the scope and cost in writing before the work starts. Those steps protect you more than any ranking can.
Frequently asked questions
Who is the best pest control company in DeLand?
By our scoring, Pioneer Pest Services ranks first, with a 4.9 Google rating from 1,620 reviews as of July 8, 2026. PURCOR Pest Solutions and Tony Webb Pest Control follow. The full ranking and the criteria behind it are above.
Which pest control company has the best reviews?
Pioneer Pest Services has both the highest review count, 1,620, and a 4.9 rating as of July 8, 2026. PURCOR Pest Solutions is close behind on 1,154 reviews. We weigh the rating and the number of reviews together, since a high average across many reviews is stronger evidence than a perfect score from a few.
How many pest control companies are on this list?
Seven, verified as of July 8, 2026. We add companies as we finish verifying them against live Google Business Profile data, and we would rather list fewer verified names than pad the ranking with businesses outside DeLand.
Do pest control companies pay to appear here?
No. No business pays for placement or a higher rank. The order comes from published criteria: Google rating, review volume, years in business, and license status where we have verified it. Money never changes the ranking.
Are these companies licensed?
Florida licenses pest control businesses through a separate FDACS registry that we could not access reliably, so we do not show a current license status for most companies here. For Bugsy's Exterminating, the most recent public FDACS record we found for license JB255972 showed an expiration date that had already passed, and we could not confirm a renewal. Ask any company directly for its current FDACS license.
No business paid to appear on this page, and a higher rank cannot be bought. The order comes from criteria we publish and re-check against live Google data. Read the full methodology.
