The modern Knox County was founded in 1825.

In 1951, Ira started American Pest Control only a few miles away in Trivoli. Since then, we’ve opened offices in nearby counties, and we’re pleased to offer pest control in Knox County, IL, with the same standards of care and quality Ira established all those years ago.

Common Pests Found in Knox County, IL

Our expert technicians are familiar with all types of pest removal in Knox County, IL. We can help with cockroaches, flies, mice, spiders, wasps, and hornets, among many other pests. Here are some of the biggest threats to Knox County homes and businesses:

Termites: The Eastern subterranean termite is a particular issue for Knox County homes. True to their name, they usually live underground in mud tubes, but they also move into homes aboveground if there’s a source of moisture.

Bed bugs: These nasty pests have a reputation for being nearly impossible to get rid of once they show up. Our technicians know how to handle bed bugs, but they’re not for the faint of heart.

Spiders: Spiders are a valuable part of our ecosystem—but that doesn’t mean you want them living in your house! In central Illinois, we have two species that can actually be dangerous: the brown recluse and black widow. You don’t want them around.

Ants: Ants aren’t generally dangerous, but they are difficult to eradicate. They’re tiny and unobtrusive but are often found in great numbers. Even if you can make some headway on your own, you probably need a professional to get rid of all of them.
