Turner Pest Control Continues Statewide Expansion

Jacksonville, FL, December 15, 2023 — Turner Pest Control, an Anticimex company providing comprehensive pest control services to residential and commercial clients throughout Florida, acquired three pest control companies in 2023, expanding their footprint across the state. Turner acquired National Exterminators in Naples in June, Bug Away in Jacksonville in August, and ABC Pest Control in Cape Coral in September.

National Exterminators, Bug Away, and ABC Pest Control have served residential and commercial customers since 1977, 1999, and 1978, respectively, and are highly regarded as premier pest control providers in the communities they served.

“Each of these companies has established a tradition of excellence that we’re committed to building on as we combine their decades of experience with our own,” said Turner Pest Control President Cheri Michaels. “We are fortunate to join forces with three world-class organizations, and our shared commitment to delivering unparalleled service will strengthen our ability to provide our expanding family of customers the best pest protection on the market.”

National Exterminators President and Owner Dan Pearce said, “I’m excited to join forces with Turner because their commitment to superior customer service and constant innovation perfectly aligns with what our customers have come to expect.”

“Turner began as a small business themselves, and we’ve seen them stay committed to our community as they’ve expanded to new ones,” said Bug Away Co-owner Sherry Barker. Co-owner Stacy Miller added, “Turner’s reputation is a big part of what makes them the ideal partner for this new chapter for our staff and customers.”

ABC Pest Control Owner Nick Libretto concluded, “We’ve built a lot of trust with our customers and the community throughout our 45 years in business, and we know that Turner will extend that trust for decades to come.”

Paul Giannamore and Franco Villanueva-Meyer of The Potomac Company represented and acted as the exclusive financial advisors to National Exterminators during the acquisition. Mark Ruff served as legal counsel to both Bug Away and ABC Pest Control in connection with the transactions.
