Our Story

The Best Pest Management Services since 1980

Jeff Murray began his career in the pest control industry in 1972. After gaining years of hands-on experience and state licensing in pest management and wood-destroying insects, he founded Murray Exterminating Company Inc. in 1980.

What started as a one-man operation with a single truck has grown into a trusted local company with trained professionals and long-standing customer relationships—while still maintaining the same values it was built on.
