In January, it was announced that Turner Pest Control, a Jacksonville-based Anticimex company, acquired Brandon Pest Control. Brandon, an $8 million company, has been a locally owned and family-operated pest control service provider in Jacksonville for more than 45 years and has 65 employees. This acquisition is the first in a planned aggressive growth strategy that Turner will execute throughout the state of Florida, the company said.
“With its focus on customer service and innovation, Brandon sets the standard for future acquisitions we have planned for the coming years,” says Turner Pest Control CEO Mark Slater. “Brandon’s values and culture are very much in line with ours, which is critical to a successful and seamless transition as we join forces.”

Brandon Pest Control President and Owner Stuart Herman agreed, noting that the two companies share a commitment to providing the highest-quality services and products. “Our management team and technicians look forward to working together with Turner to ensure that customers continue to enjoy the same safe, effective pest control they’ve come to expect from Brandon. We couldn’t have asked for a better fit as we join the global Anticimex family.”
