About A&A Pest Control
A trusted Northwest name since 1984, with big-company systems and small-company heart. Bonus: a bug-busting crew you'll actually be happy to see at your door.
The 
Story
The A&A name has protected Northwest homes and businesses since 1984. Steve and Tanya Wittig took over the established brand and still run it by the line that brought them in: "We played in the corporate world and wanted to bring our experience home to our local communities."
Pest control has been good to Steve and Tanya, and this chapter is about lifting the lives of the next pest generation. Steve serves as president of both the Oregon and Washington state pest management associations in the same term, and he mentors independent pest control owners across the region.
A&A has also grown by welcoming established local pest control companies into the family. We add resources and support while honoring each owner's legacy and preserving the employee and customer relationships they spent years building. Around Portland and Vancouver, A&A is the local team people call when cockroach or bed bug problems outlast everyone else.
