Cimex Exterminating Corp. Goes Statewide With Services

A small but great idea has turned into a statewide adventure for two business minded pest control operators.

Cimex Exterminating started in the Hampton Roads Tidewater area back in June of 2011. Owners, Kevin Campbell and Mark Drexler knew they wanted something more in life while working for other companies.

Kevin, a 25 year vet in the pest industry and Mark, a 12 year vet in the pest industry had a novel idea. With all the pest control companies treating bed bugs, and most not able to warranty the work for a long period of time, and with the pandemic proprtion out break of bed bugs....they started Cimex Exterminating. All they do is treat bed bugs (cimex lectularius).


As experts and specialists in bed bugs, these guys use everything from heat remediation, steam, chemical and freezing. "It all depends on the job, as to what process we use" Campbell says. "Each job is different and each job has its own situation. In most cases we'll use a dry vapor, high temp steamer with a strong long lasting residual". They are so confident in the jobs they do, that they offer a FULL YEARS WARRANTY.


Business has been so good in fact, that they now have clients in Northern VA. and Central VA., as well as local city governments. "We are currently looking into expansion into the Nashville, TN. market as well. The problem there is growing and the area has great potential with little competition" says Campbell.


Bed bugs have become a national problem. Chemicals alone do not work due to resistance from the adults and lack of egg penatration. Kevin & Mark of Cimex Exterminating knew this. As a result, more and more families and organizations are becoming bed bug free and now with heat remediation, they can also save your furniture.
