About Us
Kirkwood's Most Trusted Pest Control Company
Family-owned, community-driven, and committed to protecting Greater St. Louis homes since 2011.
Our Story
Around The Clock Pest Control was born out of a simple observation: St. Louis homeowners deserved better. After working 12 years in the pest control industry, founder Ronald Skaggs saw that families were forced to choose between affordable service and 24-hour availability — but never both.
Ron set out to change that. In 2011, he launched Around The Clock Pest from Kirkwood, Missouri, with a commitment to providing round-the-clock emergency service at prices every family could afford.
Today, we proudly serve thousands of homes across St. Louis County, St. Charles County, and Lincoln County. Every technician on our team is certified by the State of Missouri Department of Agriculture, and we maintain active membership in The Greater St. Louis Pest Control Association.
