OUR LEGACY

A FAMILY BUSINESS BUILT TO LAST

Modern Exterminating was founded in 1955 and has grown into a third-generation family business serving South Carolina from Columbia, Lexington, Elgin, and Spartanburg.

Growth has never changed the foundation of the company. Modern still believes pest control should feel local, personal, and accountable. Customers should know who they are working with, understand what is being recommended, and feel confident that the team will stand behind its work.

  • Local & family-owned since 1955
  • Third-generation leadership
  • Four South Carolina locations
  • Highly trained service technicians
  • Deep commitment to the communities we serve

HOW WE WORK

PHD IN CUSTOMER CARE

Professional. Honest. Dependable. Those three words shape how Modern communicates, serves, and builds long-term relationships with customers and communities.

Professional

Trained technicians, thoughtful service, clear communication, and respect for every property we enter.

Honest

Straightforward recommendations focused on what the property actually needs — without unnecessary hype or pressure.

Dependable

We show up, communicate clearly, stand behind our service, and work to provide the peace of mind customers expect.

MODERN'S COMMITMENT

To provide peace of mind.

That mission is intentionally simple. It means solving pest problems professionally, communicating honestly, respecting the customer’s property, and being dependable when someone needs our help.

OUR STORY

Seventy years of service is not one moment — it is generations of customers, technicians, families, and communities growing together.

1955 — Our Beginning. Modern Exterminating begins serving South Carolina with a local, service-first approach.

Three Generations. The company remains family owned as knowledge, responsibility, and customer relationships are carried forward from one generation to the next.

Modern Today. With locations in Columbia, Lexington, Elgin, and Spartanburg, the company serves thousands of South Carolina homes and businesses while staying rooted in the communities that made that growth possible.

What Comes Next. Modern continues investing in training, better customer experiences, strong community relationships, and practical pest-management solutions while protecting the values that have defined the business since 1955.

70 YEARS OF MODERN

Modern celebrated its 70th year in 2025 — a milestone that reflects generations of service, relationships, and commitment to South Carolina.

ROOTED IN COMMUNITY

Modern’s role in the community goes beyond pest control. The company has spent decades building relationships with local organizations, businesses, families, and community groups across South Carolina.

That involvement is not a marketing add-on — it is part of what being a locally owned company means. As Modern grows, staying connected to the people and places it serves remains one of the company’s most important commitments.
