Response from the owner:Hi, Shawn. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
Shawn Hammon is a very nice informative worker he got our birds nest down, and separated for carpenter bees. Would highly recommend him and Titan Pest control.
Response from the owner:Hi, Hellon. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
Titan Pest and Wildlife has been so helpful in ridding us of the squirrels that thought my attic was theirs. They sealed up the areas that were allowing them access I have not had a problem since. The technician was very kind and informative in what he was doing. Don't hesitate to call them! Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Hi, K. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
I love rally squirrel, I just don't want him and his crew living in my walls, so I 911 Titan. Their posse helped rally & crew to leave , ALIVE ( hope they find their way to Bush stadium and cheer for the Cardinals). Titan understand people maybe having financial issues, for a small down payment they will set a monthly payment as low as $25 for the balance. So, if you got creatures that you didn't marry, birth or bought don't allow it to work your last Grey hair nerve, CALL TITAN , they can return your abode to Home Sweet Home . Go Blues, Cardinals, Battle Hawks and STLCITY.
Response from the owner:Hi, Kimberly. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
I called and they were able to send J out within 2 days. J was able to quickly diagnose the issue and was able to close up the soffit where the birds were getting into our roof.
Response from the owner:Hi, Brittany. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
Jay did a fantastic job treating our house for termites. the treatment was very thorough around the entire perimeter of the house along with a few precautionary spot treatments as necessary. Jay took the time to explain everything so that I was comfortable and satisfied with the treatment plan. To top it off Jay is very courteous and easy to talk with. It is a pleasure doing business with Jay. He goes above and beyond to make sure the job is top tier.
Response from the owner:Hi, W. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
Jay (J Ketsterson) was amazing the way he explained was clear and easy to understand. He didn't try to oversell us on stuff we didn't need and it was a great first experience. Here's to many more. 😊
Response from the owner:Hi, Tj. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
Very excited to have the bird nest removed from my vent and cleaned. J came out and quoted me on the project. He was super friendly and is a Spartan fan which is a plus! He was very detailed with what would happen with the appointment. He took the time to answer my questions. Great customer service!
Response from the owner:Hi, Jennifer. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
We had J from Titan Pest Control out today to treat our multi unit commercial property.
He was prompt and extremely informative answering all of our questions! We discussed many different programs they offer and had him do the first treatment today!
I definitely recommend contacting Titan for all of your pest and wildlife needs. ✌️💜🧜♀️
Response from the owner:Hi, Peace. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
Weโve been using this service for over a year now, and I can honestly say I have nothing but great things to say about both the people and the service. When we first started, we had a friendly guy named Ken who handled our treatments. He was amazing and always took the time to make my son laugh while working outside. Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago, and we now have John, who has been just as fantastic. My kids have the best time with him!
I couldnโt recommend this company more. Not only do they do a great job keeping our home safe from insects, but they also treat my children like their own. Keep up the excellent work, guys!
Response from the owner:Hi, Michelle. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
I've had a very personal and professional experience with Titan and Brandyn in particular! Always felt as if I was a priority and the communication and timely responses have been unmatched! I've even moved houses and that has been made a breeze with Titan.
Response from the owner:Hi, Ross. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
I wanted to complement Jay at Titan for his professionalism. He came to my house and was quite patient in explaining various options that I had for addressing a snake issue with my home. I grilled him about everything and had follow up questions the next day as I compared Titan with another company. Ultimately, it was the value of the services package that won me over.
When I called to schedule for my first appointment, it was good to encounter a pleasant and customer service-focused representative. The professionalism and customer service I experienced with Titan should be the norm for companies today. Customer service as a whole has gone out of the window. It was refreshing to deal with a company that still upholds it.
Response from the owner:Hi, Mark. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
Had our attic inspected with one of the finest sales manager โJ kesterson โ. I would definitely recommend this company and Kesterson for any pest or yard activities
Response from the owner:Hi, Srinivas. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
Ken H. Was great! Very thorough, personable, courteous and knowledgeable. My second treatment by Titan and I have to say, I am impressed. They stand behind their work. That says a lot! Highly recommend.
Response from the owner:Hi, Tonya. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!
Brandyn was amazing. I was messaging at 6am after finding my worst nightmare in my new home. & They were out same day. He was super informative. Very kind. & Was not judgemental at all. He was kind to my dogs & I feel so much more at ease now.
Response from the owner:Hi, Shelbye. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
J Kesterson was extremely diligent in finding the source of our pest! With their FREE Assessment we came up with a plan to seal off the infestation area. He thoroughly scoured the rest of the roof line and attic for any other potential areas of entry. Professional, Kind and Courteous, J Kesterson was there for us when we really needed them!
Response from the owner:Hi, Ken. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
Very pleased with communication and quick response. Feel confident this company is qualified to take care of any pest control needs in the future. Will recommend to family and friends.

Response from the owner:Hi, Trinh. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
I recently had a few unwanted visitors make home in my attic. Nathan came out same day and provided a solution to evict our unwelcome guest! Once he started work I knew we chose a great company. Everyone is professional and is determined to offer amazing customer service. Nathan ran me through what was being done and was very knowledgeable. Our attic is now free of unwanted squirrels and Titan made sure to patch up any entry points and left our house looking better than when they arrived. Highly recommend this company for their attention to detail, knowledge, and professionalism.

Catching the infestation as early as possible is the only way to save on costly termite damage. If you suspect termite activity in or around your property, you should immediately get your home inspected.
What are Termites?
At first glance, termites are often mistaken for ants. They are similar in size and have similar-looking bodies depending on the species. Termites also tend to live in large colonies, just like ants. Every colony has a reproductive couple, the queen and the king, and workers who perform all the other tasks besides reproducing. A colony’s size can range from only two termites (the queen and the king) to millions of individuals.
Termites play an essential role in the ecosystem and maintain nature’s balance by breaking down various plant materials, including dead wood. There are more than 2,600 known species of termites worldwide; of those, nearly 50 are found in North America. However, when termites invade residential property, they become a significant threat.
Subterranean TermitesDampwood Termites
Knowing the three common types of termites is essential if you live in Missouri. Knowing these types can help you understand where to watch out for these invaders:
Subterranean termites – These termites build underground colonies and need contact with soil to maintain moisture levels. They need a regular source of moisture to survive. This is the most common type of termite found in the U.S. Of the many species of subterranean termites, Formosan termites are the ones that are considered most aggressive and destructive by terminate control specialists because of their ability to survive without contact with soil.
Dampwood termites – These termites live in decaying and damp wood and require contact with water and high humidity for survival.
Drywood termites – Less prevalent in the home but just as destructive, drywood termites don’t need to nest in the ground and prefer dry areas for feeding and setting their colony.
Signs of Termites in Your Home
If your home is over twenty years old, you can guarantee that your home has some degree of termite damage. While not all termite damage is severe, allowing them to continue to infest your house will likely lead to a future disaster.
Here are some of the most common signs of a termite infestation:
Termite droppings – They resemble coffee grounds or sawdust and are hexagonal in shape. The color is wood-like.
Swarms – One of the most evident signs of termite infestation is the presence of “swarmers” around your home. They are winged termites that fly in Spring to reproduce, and they will leave their wings behind, likely on windowsills. However, swarmers are only present briefly during the year, and termites can go undetected for a long time.
Mud tubes – These extend over support piers, floor joists, or walls and are used for termites to travel from underground colonies to their feeding grounds.
Damaged wood – Signs of termite activity are related to damage in the wooden structures of your home. The floors will start feeling spongy and show blisters and sagging in certain areas. Windows and doors that are suddenly difficult to open or close might also signify that termites have begun consuming the wooden framing, causing irregularities and deformations. Because termites usually consume the inner parts of the wooden structures, damaged wood will sound hollow when knocked.
Live termites – Any presence of live termites in and around the house is a sure sign, but the problem is that it is challenging to spot termites because they generally remain inside their colonies and within the wood. A professional termite control expert can help identify the presence of live termites.
Termite Pest Control in St. Louis
The biggest problem with termites is that you can’t usually see them or the damage they have caused until too late. They are exceptionally well-organized pests and can find a way inside any building. If you suspect a termite infestation, then you need to act now. The longer you wait, the greater the damage and costs.
Some of our methods include:
Chemical Soil Treatment โ The treatment is put around the building and on the bottom floor, where the colony will likely be near.
Termite Baits โ Stations used to bait termites. These should be checked frequently for follow-up.
Renovation โ Depending on the circumstances, removing wood in contact with soil may be needed, or improving ventilation in these high-risk locations.
Call Titan Pest & Wildlife in St. Louis – we will eliminate your termite infestation. Because of the proximity of humans to the infested areas, we take extra precautions to avoid any toxicity or allergies developing in our customers.
