READING, PA—Rentokil North America has acquired Buffalo Exterminating Co. of Orchard Park, N.Y. This latest addition to the Rentokil family of pest control companies strengthens Rentokil’s presence along Western and Central New York and includes Buffalo’s brand presence in Rochester, N.Y., as Rochester Exterminating. The acquisition was finalized Jan. 2, 2015.
Buffalo Exterminating has served the region since 1954. It has 53 pest control technicians among its 92 employees and four branch offices.
Buffalo co-owner John Zimmerman will remain with Rentokil North America and facilitate the transition period between the companies. They will begin co-branding with Rentokil’s primary brand along the East Coast, Ehrlich Pest Control, during 2015, eventually becoming completely Ehrlich-branded by the end of 2016. Ehrlich currently has offices in both Buffalo and Rochester.
