View company profile

The story of Terminix began not in a boardroom, but in a home. In 1927, E.L. Bruce, the owner of a hardwood flooring company, was confronted with a destructive force of nature: termites chewing through his own floors. This personal encounter with a relentless pest sparked an idea. Bruce was determined to find a way to protect his handiwork and the homes of others. He consulted with chemists and entomologists, leading to the creation of the first-ever termite-specific insecticide. This innovation was the bedrock upon which Terminix was built, a company founded with the singular mission to 'terminate' termites, a name that has since become synonymous with pest control itself. From this focused beginning, the company embarked on a journey of growth and expansion, becoming the first company to offer a termite protection contract backed by a guarantee.

For nearly a century, Terminix grew from a small, specialized service into a global leader in pest management. Its services expanded far beyond termites to tackle a wide array of pests that threaten health and property, including rodents, mosquitoes, cockroaches, and more. The company's footprint spread across the United States and into dozens of countries, serving millions of residential and commercial customers. This long history of innovation and reliable service culminated in a new chapter in October 2022, when Terminix was acquired by Rentokil Initial plc, another giant in the global hygiene and pest control industry. This merger combined two of the most experienced and capable teams in the business, creating an unparalleled force dedicated to protecting people, enhancing lives, and preserving the planet. While now part of a larger entity, the Terminix brand continues its legacy, powered by global expertise while delivering the trusted local service it has been known for since its inception.
