Mitchell Pest Control, Inc. was founded in May 1947 with the stated objective, “to provide the landscape industry with professional horticultural pest diagnostic and application services of the highest quality possible,” in order to help clients achieve and maintain the health of trees and plantings. They recognized early that the educational background and practical experience of their personnel would be a key to reaching this goal, so they have constantly worked to attract and retain the very best, most qualified persons available, and to assist them in advancing their qualifications.
