The pest control industry grows as millions rely on professional services, and Eastside Exterminators strengthened its position in Seattle area through acquiring Parker Eco Pest Control. The move combines shared values and expertise to expand eco-friendly, technology-driven pest control and home services across Western Washington.
— According to the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), around 13.29 million residential customers used professional pest control services in 2025, and the industry sustained steady growth with a 6% increase in this year. This industry is crucial in protecting public health and properties, as it eliminates harmful pests from various environments.
In the Greater Seattle area, Eastside Exterminators was founded by Ralph James Townsend, Jr., and has been serving clients since 1969, using effective and eco-friendly solutions to bring peace of mind to the local community. Their current services include not only pest control (rodents, ants, spiders, stinging insects, fleas, termites, and more) but also attic and crawl space cleaning, attic insulation, crawl space insulation, spray foam insulation, rat slab installation, and insulation installation.
However, this business is constantly looking for ways to go above and beyond for Seattle. So recently, Eastside Exterminators has acquired Parker Eco Pest Control.
Parker Eco Pest Control was first founded in 2016 by Wesley and Chris Parker, and they ran the company with a dedicated team of qualified technicians. Its three core principles included delivering the most effective and environmentally responsible solutions, building lasting customer relationships, and crafting tailored solutions. Considering that these values are closely aligned with those of Eastside Exterminators, it made sense for a partnership to arise.
Eastside Exterminators’ president is excited about the merger and says, “I am thrilled to bring these two companies together. Over the past ten years, Chris and Wesley Parker have built an amazing company focused on their customers, their people, and their community. At Eastside Exterminators, we’ve been living the same values since 1969, making this a very good fit. With our combined experience and expertise, we are now positioned to provide the highest level of service and the most comprehensive pest control solutions in Western Washington.”
The acquisition of Parker Eco Pest Control is intended to strengthen local presence. The combined resources allow Eastside Exterminators to expand community support across a larger service area, and it can now provide a broader range of integrated solutions, too.
For example, there’s Eastside Insulation services with access to Puget Sound Energy’s weatherization rebate as a qualified PSE Recommended Energy Professional (RSE). Clients can also benefit from comprehensive rodent exclusion work and the state’s only provider of SMART detection technology for rodent control.
This acquisition comes after a recent partnership in 2023 with Anticimex, which is a global industry leader. This gave Eastside Exterminators access to cutting-edge technology and resources to make pest control smarter and more sustainable.
Eastside Exterminators is Seattle’s most trusted expert in pest control and promises to treat its clients like family. The company is nationally certified and recognized, and it’s a member of organizations such as the National Wildlife Control Operators Association (NWCOA) and the United States Pest Management Professionals Association (USPMPA).
About the company: Eastside Exterminators is a family-owned pest control company serving the Greater Seattle area and surrounding communities throughout King and Snohomish counties. Founded in 1969, the company has more than five decades of experience helping homeowners protect their properties.
