About Us

Top notch pest control service was and continues to be the cornerstone of our business. Providing service to residential and commercial customers, our professionals will not only treat your problems but give helpful preventative advice as well.

Your house could be at risk from an attack within the walls. Termite damage is serious. It is more common than storm or fire damage, and usually isn’t covered by home insurance. Imel Pest Control will inspect your home for free! We proudly install and service the Sentricon Termite Colony Elimination System. This is the same system that protects the Statue of Liberty, The White House, and the Alamo.

How We Got Started

Imel Pest Control, Inc. is rooted in 4 generations and counting of quality pest control services. Our grandfather on my (Jan and Jill) mother's side has an extermination business that started in Somerset, KY. Our parents, Ralph and Tina, started Imel Pest Control, Inc. in 1967 out of a small house in Bethalto, IL. Ralph started this second job with nothing more than a sprayer and a truck. Tina was a housewife who kept the office and house in order. My sister, Jill, began spraying when she was 20 years old, and is still a technician to this day. I, Jan, started helping my mom by answering the office phones and assisting with various tasks around the office. Our dad told us, "Nothing is better than a handshake and positive word-of-mouth for advertising." Both of our parents believed that customers should be treated the same way you'd like to be treated. To this day, we still operate and grow with that same mentality, with great thanks to all of our customers through the years. From all o
