A Full-Service Company

Acenitec got its start in 1947, born from a simple idea: rid friends and neighbors of the headaches, fear and frustrations that come from living with pests of all kinds. What began with a single word-of-mouth customer quickly grew into a full enterprise as more and more Oklahomans heard about the work.

The new company even needed a name. It had to start with an “A” to be first in the phone book. In those days, sure-fire toxicity was a marketing edge, so cyanide came to mind, and the word “toxic” drove home the message. A + Cyanide + Toxic. Put it all together and you get ACINITOX — the name that stuck for decades. The truck-side logo even bore a skull and crossbones!

Fast forward 75 years: the methods and products used for pest control have changed drastically. Our ecological approach seeks to be far less toxic and much more in balance with nature. That’s why in 1998 we changed the name to Acenitec.

That original hard work, philosophy, and energy are still part of what we do. We’re small enough to truly care about every single customer on a personal level, and we believe that makes all the difference.
