Certus Hits PCT’s Top 100 Pest Control Companies at #23, Rocketing 52 Spots in its Second Year on the List

Pest Control Technology (PCT) magazine, a pest management industry publication, has released its 2020 annual ranking of the one hundred largest pest control companies out of the thousands serving the United States. For the second year in a row, Certus is featured on the list, and has advanced to #23 this year, a significant move up from #75 on the 2019 list.

“We are thrilled to have made such a substantial leap on this year’s list,” said Mike Givlin, CEO and co-founder of Certus. “I am so proud of our team and their

accomplishments. The new ranking is a testament to the company’s founding principle that the industry needs a different kind of consolidator,” said Givlin.

The PCT list ranking is based on revenue figures from 2020. Certus showed the highest percentage growth on the list, which is largely due to its robust acquisitions program that has seen it acquire 30 companies since being founded in 2019.

Certus is known for its flexibility, ease to work with, and for helping owners of newly acquired companies navigate through the process and find the best ways for them to move to their next adventure. Of the 30 acquisitions, the company incurred zero systematic layoffs.

“The best way to evolve the industry is by supporting, trusting, and elevating our people,” said Givlin. “We are dedicated to finding the right vendor partners who will help us gain synergies, even at the lightning pace with which we are moving. We are definitely on track to achieving our goal of becoming a PCT Top 10 pest control company quickly,” said Givlin.
