About Lamp's Pest Solutions
Your Trusted Lexington, South Carolina Pest Control Experts!
I guess you could say pest control has been in my blood from a pretty young age. While most kids were collecting baseball cards, I had ant farms set up in my bedroom and spent hours watching tunnels being built and tiny worlds taking shape. My curiosity eventually crossed the line a time or two — I even kept a black widow in an old pickle jar for a while (not something I recommend trying at home). And when my mom wouldn’t let me use bug spray, I’d head out back armed with Windex, waging war on fire ants instead.
What started as childhood curiosity slowly turned into a deep interest in understanding how pests behave — and more importantly, how to get rid of them the right way.
As I got older, that fascination turned into a professional career. I worked for a company that specialized strictly in flea treatments, giving me focused experience with one of the most stubborn household pests. From there, I went on to work for one of the nation’s largest pest control companies, where I was trained in advanced methods, real-world problem solving, and large-scale treatment strategies. I later worked for a multi-state pest control operation that serviced massive food warehouses and dog food production facilities — environments that demanded strict standards, precision, and accountability. Eventually, I moved into a General Manager role, overseeing operations and teams in a demanding, high-performance environment.
During that time, I also stepped away briefly to gain ministry experience — an opportunity that strengthened my commitment to serving others, listening to people’s concerns, and showing up with integrity and compassion in everything I do.
In 2009, I decided to bring all of that experience back home and started Lamp’s Pest Solutions in Lexington, South Carolina. I wanted to create a local, family-run company that combined big-company knowledge with small-town care — a business where customers were treated like neighbors, not account numbers.
