Our Mission Statement

To offer the highest quality pest control service at fair prices while always striving to exceed customer expectations. Through ongoing training and research, we ensure our team is equipped with the best tools and knowledge to address any challenge.

A Little History

Founded by Sue and Elliott Hollingsworth, we opened our doors on March 1st, 1996 with 2 employees and one office. Within 25 years, we have grown into 80 employees and 3 locations across Southeastern NC. By year-end 2020, we were named by Pest Control Technology Magazine as one of the Top 100 pest control companies in the United States and have been named as such every year thereafter. 

Now owned and operated by their son Stan Hollingsworth, Bug-N-A-Rug’s roots run deep in the Wilmington NC area. Stan, a boating enthusiast, takes pride in captaining a local family-owned company where people can come and be successful, have educational opportunities, and grow within.

This place is great! The office staff were friendly and responsive - I signed up for quarterly pest control and the process was super easy! My technician was scheduled within 2 days. Justin, our technician, was professional and courteous, and explained what steps he would take. Thank you for providing great, local service!
