About Us

Rick Lopez - Owner/Operater

    I have been in the Pest Control Industry since 2001 and absolutely love it. I began with Home Team Pest Defense as an apprentice and worked my way up to a Certified Applicator in just a few years. As I learned the industry I became one of the Field Supervisor's and then Service Manager. After 7 years of service with Home Team I went to work for CitiTurf Lawn Care to help open up their Pest Control Division. At CitiTurf, I learned about proper Lawn Care and helped grow the Fertilization & Weed Control Division for the past 6 years as well as growing the Pest Control Division. I love to work with people and help solve their pest issues. If I had to choose a favorite pest to study it would have to be ants. There are many species and each have their own unique ways, its an absolute joy to be able to find new ways to control them. I also love to learn the new ways of the industry and sharing with my clients. I feel that honesty and integrity are the root to my success in the Pest Control Industry. I love to be outdoors whether it is hunting, fishing and riding atvs. I completly love the fact that I have the oppurtunity to start up Bugged Out Pest, this has been a dream for years and now it is a reality. I hope to meet you soon and thanks for allowing me a little of your time to share myself with you.
