Certifications and accreditations

Pest control, you can trust

Western Exterminator has been protecting businesses and homes from pests since 1921. Every service we deliver is guided by nationally recognized standards, and our team follows established protocols and quality benchmarks to help ensure effective, responsible pest management you can feel confident about.

Our core certifications

Our certifications reflect a commitment to quality, accountability, and customer care. They verify that our people, processes, and treatments meet recognized industry standards, supporting consistent, professional service across every visit.

QualityPro certified (NPMA)

Western Exterminator is QualityPro-certified by the National Pest Management Association. This designation is awarded to pest control companies that meet the highest standards in the industry across business operations, environmental stewardship, consumer protection, and ongoing technician training.

It's a mark that gives customers added confidence in the quality and reliability of our work.

GreenPro certified (NPMA)

We hold GreenPro certification from the National Pest Management Association — a recognition given to pest control providers who follow Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices. That means focusing on prevention first and using reduced-risk treatment methods where appropriate.

It reflects our broader commitment to eco-friendly pest control that looks after your property and the environment.

 

State-recognized pest control credentials

Across every state we operate in — California, Arizona, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, and Nevada — our technicians hold the appropriate state-issued credentials for pesticide application, pest identification, and other pest management processes. That means trained, compliant professionals on every job, operating in line with all applicable local and federal regulations.

The Western standard

Choosing a pest control provider isn't just about who shows up at your door; it's about what they know, how they work, and the standards they hold themselves to. At Western Exterminator, we've spent more than a century building a service that goes beyond the basics.
