BRUNSWICK, Maine – Modern Pest Services, and Anticimex company, announced its newest partner in New England with the acquisition of Ants Plus Pest Control based in Sabattus, Maine.
Ants Plus Pest Control, which also operates as Bug Beaters Pest Control, is a local, family-owned and operated company providing commercial, residential, and industrial pest control throughout Southern, Mid-coast, and Downeast Maine. Founded in 2001 by Jim Carter, Ants Plus has seen tremendous growth both commercially and residentially.
Jim Carter, owner of Ants Plus, said, “After a career in the Navy, I started Ants Plus with the goal of providing pest control services to assist those in our local community with their pest control needs. A community-based commitment helped us to grow continually. As I researched what the next steps were for the organization, I felt aligning with a company like Modern was an excellent opportunity for both my employees and clients to benefit from.”
