History

Established in 1928.

Ehrlich Pest Control was founded in 1928 in Reading, Pennsylvania by Julius C. Ehrlich. Mr. Ehrlich was a salesman who sold insecticides and fogging equipment. At this time, pest control was very much a do-​it-​yourself venture.

When one of his customers, a department store, had no one who could apply the materials, Mr. Ehrlich offered to do it for them — a novel idea at that time.

With that gesture in 1928, Mr. Ehrlich established his new service company using the principles that still guide Ehrlich today: initiative, ingenuity and exceed customer expectations. In these early days, the service team consisted of Mr. Ehrlich, his wife and daughter, who placed rat bait in small pieces of bread.

From these humble beginnings, Ehrlich has grown to over 50 local offices serving the following states — Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Massachusetts, Ohio, Connecticut, Michigan, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
