On November 6, 2026 we searched Google Maps for "pest control in Phoenix, AZ", looked at the
20 businesses it listed, kept the pest control companies with an address in Phoenix, and graded the first 10
with the free Fieldmox Business Grader.
The grade is about 25 checks, each worth fixed points. Reviews, review pace and photos are measured against the top 3 in Phoenix,
not a national average. A check that couldn't run is left out of the score instead of counting against anyone. The score comes
from fixed rules, not AI, so the same facts always give the same grade.
What it doesn't grade: the quality of the work, prices, licensing or insurance. It tells you who is
easiest to find and choose online. Check a license, get more than one quote, and read the newest reviews before you hire.
Independence: no business paid to be listed or ranked, and none can. Fieldmox makes software for
service businesses; whether a company uses it has no effect on its grade.
