Our Story
A legacy of trust since 1959.
OUR STORY
Built on 70 Years of Family Leadership. Designed for the Next 70.
Select Exterminating was founded on a simple principle: protect people, protect property, and do the job right the first time.
What began as a small, family-operated pest control service in New York has grown into one of the most respected and trusted names in the Northeast. But while the footprint has expanded, the philosophy has never changed.
We believe service is personal. We believe accountability matters. And we believe reputation is earned — one property at a time.
Three Generations of Craftsmanship
For over seven decades, Select has remained family-led and values-driven.
Through economic cycles, regulatory changes, industry shifts, and evolving urban landscapes, we have continued to adapt — not by cutting corners, but by raising standards.
Our approach has always gone beyond “spray and leave.”
We focus on:
- Structural reinforcement
- Permanent exclusion work
- Integrated Pest
- Management (IPM)
- Long-term risk reduction
Because pest control isn’t about short-term relief. It’s about long-term protection.
Expanding Without Compromising
Growth for us has never been about size alone — it’s been about strength.
Over the past decade, Select has expanded its capabilities across the Northeast, integrating specialized divisions and strategic acquisitions while maintaining the same service DNA that built our reputation.
Today, we proudly serve:
- Residential homeowners
- Property management portfolios
- Healthcare facilities
- Food processing & distribution centers
- Tier-1 national restaurant brands
- Transit authorities & infrastructure clients
Our team now combines field craftsmanship with modern technology — leveraging digital inspection reporting, real-time service documentation, and risk analysis dashboards to give our clients visibility and confidence.
But no matter how sophisticated the tools become, our core promise remains unchanged:
We show up. We own the outcome. We stand behind our work.
A Legacy of Trust
The reason we’ve lasted over 70 years isn’t because of advertising.
It’s because of trust.
Trust from property managers who rely on us to protect thousands of units.
Trust from restaurant operators who cannot afford operational disruption.
Trust from families who expect safety inside their homes.
That trust has been earned through:
- Relentless follow-through
- Clear communication
- Skilled technicians
- Long-term relationships
- Doing what we say we will do
Many of our client relationships span decades — and that is the metric that matters most.
Built for the Future
As we look ahead, our focus is simple:
Continue building the most disciplined, professional, and technologically advanced pest management company in the Northeast — without ever losing the family values that started it all.
Seventy years ago, our founders built this company on integrity and craftsmanship.
Today, that same foundation supports a growing organization serving thousands of properties across multiple states.
And tomorrow?
We’ll still be doing what we’ve always done.
Protecting properties. Protecting reputations. Protecting people.
