Dayton's Pest Control Services, Inc is locally owned and operated by Dayton Hylton, a Knoxville native whose fascination with bugs was sparked by a life-threatening bite he received as a youngster. He learned all he could about insect pests and eventually earned a Master's of Science Degree in entomology from the University of Tennessee.
Dayton knows his bugs—and the best ways to eliminate pest problems. After graduating from UT, he worked for three pest control companies before founding Dayton's Pest Control in 1985 to serve Knoxville area residents and businesses. Today, the company employs 16 service technicians and is one of the area's most respected and well-known pest control companies.
