About Us
get to know us
At Buggin Out, we believe every home and space deserves to feel safe, clean, and protected.
For over 16 years, Buggin Out IPM (Integrated Pest Management) has served local homeowners, renters, restaurants, and property managers across Elizabeth and Union County — with care, empathy, honesty, and respect.
We treat every pest problem like it’s happening in our own home — responding fast, working with care, and always respecting your space.
How it started
Buggin Out didn’t begin in a boardroom — it started in the hallways, basements, and back rooms of the buildings our founder used to maintain.
Before becoming a pest control professional, he worked in property maintenance, helping residents with the everyday problems that keep a home running.
That work taught him something simple but powerful: people deserve to be treated with care, respect, and patience — no matter their situation.
When he later transitioned into a bed bug prep company, he saw firsthand how stressful pest issues can be. He also saw how often customers were judged, rushed, or talked down to. That never sat right with him.
So he built Buggin Out to be the opposite. A local service where every customer is treated with empathy. Where every home is respected.
Where every job is done with the mindset: treat people with care, respect their space, and always give more than what’s expected.
Because he’s been on the other side, and he understands.
Our Mission
Protecting spaces. Supporting people.
We show up with care, clarity, and respect — every time. Pest control isn’t just a service. It’s support for the people and spaces we serve.
“Your space should feel safe and comfortable — we respect that. We explain everything clearly so you feel confident, supported, and never overwhelmed.”
