Our Story

In early 1985, Al and Helen Wells and Bob Clark launched ADVANCE Termite & Pest Control, which was incorporated in Kansas, and commenced operations in April, 1985. These original owners wanted the corporation's primary focus to be the offering of quality termite and pest control services for both residential and commercial customers in Hutchinson and the surrounding area. The business began in the basement of the Wells' home where it remained for 10 years.

For the first six years of the operation, each technician scheduled his own appointments and Helen took care of the "bookwork" in the evenings and on Saturdays while continuing her employment with a local law firm. In 1991, Helen became a "full-time" employee of the corporation.
