Who We Are

Built on Trust,
Science & Results

BugBanish was founded in 2006 with a simple mission: to provide Washington DC residents and business owners with honest, effective, and environmentally responsible pest control.

Over the past 18 years, we've grown from a small family operation into the DC area's most trusted pest control company — without ever losing the personal touch that made us who we are. Every job we take, we treat as if it were our own home.

We believe that pest control done right means more than eliminating bugs. It means understanding why they're there, protecting your family from harmful chemicals, and building long-term protection strategies that last.
