Local pest control from our Lugoff-Elgin branch at 824 Ridgeway Road. Kershaw County properties have a different pest profile than the Columbia suburbs, and we treat them that way.
This is wooded, acreage country. Lots back onto trees rather than other houses, and that changes what shows up. Tick pressure along the wooded edge is the constant, and wildlife activity runs higher than it does closer to the city.
Horse country around Camden adds its own pattern. Barns, outbuildings and feed storage draw rodents, and rodent activity is what brings snakes onto a property in the first place. Handling one usually handles the other.
From recurring pest control and termite protection to wildlife, moisture, mosquito, and commercial programs, Modern builds practical solutions around your property. Integrated Pest Management guides our service-first approach.
Inspections, baiting systems, pre-construction treatment, and CL100 / WDO support.
Recurring and one-time protection for common household pests with an IPM-first approach.
Trapping, removal, exclusion, and damage repair for common South Carolina wildlife.
Every visit includes the same core steps, built to solve the problem instead of masking it for a few days.
A technician inspects the property inside and out, identifies the pest and the conditions behind it, and locates entry points and likely nest or harborage sites before any treatment begins.
2
The pest, the severity, and the property determine the plan. A minor problem calls for a different approach than a heavy infestation or a structural issue.
3
Technicians apply targeted treatments at entry points, nesting sites, and problem areas, matched to the pest and the property, indoors and outdoors as needed.
4
After treatment, technicians point out conditions that invite pests back, such as moisture or exposed food sources, and schedule follow-up service if activity continues.
Our Lugoff-Elgin branch covers Kershaw County, including Camden, Lugoff, Elgin, Bethune and the acreage properties in between.
Years of Local Service
local & Family-Owned Since 1955
Modern Exterminating has been the longest-standing, local and family-owned pest control company serving the area since 1955. Now in its third generation, the company runs by a simple standard, a PHD in customer care: professional, honest, and dependable, on every visit.
The I-20 corridor has brought steady residential growth to Kershaw County, and new subdivisions built against wooded land produce a predictable wave of pest pressure in their first seasons as clearing displaces what was living there.
For acreage properties the priority is usually exclusion rather than treatment. Sealing outbuildings, managing the wooded edge and controlling rodents does more over three seasons than any spray programme applied to the house alone.
On wooded acreage, what lives at the treeline decides what ends up in the house. The inspection covers the outbuildings and the perimeter, not just the structure.
Properties backing onto woods carry the heaviest tick load in our service area, and raccoons, squirrels, opossums and snakes turn up far more often here than in the suburbs. Exclusion matters more than treatment on these lots.
Barns, sheds and feed storage are rodent magnets, and rodent activity is what draws snakes onto a property. We assess the outbuildings as part of the inspection rather than as an extra.
The full range: general pest control, termite, wildlife, moisture control, mosquito reduction, rodent service and commercial programmes, from the Ridgeway Road branch.
Yes. This branch covers Kershaw County, including Camden, Lugoff, Elgin and Bethune, plus the acreage properties in between.
Heavier tick and wildlife pressure than a suburban lot, and more seasonal invader movement in autumn. The wooded edge is where treatment concentrates.
824 Ridgeway Road, Lugoff-Elgin, SC 29078. Open Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
