The honest answer is that it depends on the specifics. Compare the written scope first, then the price. Local providers in Illinois can confirm how that applies to your area.
Is Pest Control cheaper in smaller cities?
Often, but not always. Smaller markets can carry a travel or availability premium that offsets a lower local rate, so it is worth checking a nearby city before assuming the lowest published figure applies to you. In Illinois, that is worth confirming with a local provider before you commit.
