PE-Backed Terminix buys Vancouver's Care Pest & Wildlife Control

Pest and termite control provider Terminix, owned by Memphis, Tenn.-based The ServiceMaster Co., has made its second Canadian acquisition this year, buying for an undisclosed price Care Pest & Wildlife Control, which is based in Vancouver. Founded in 2000, Care Pest & Wildlife specializes in general pest, bedbug, bird and wildlife control for both residential and commercial customers. In August, Terminix purchased Toronto's Magical Pest Control. ServiceMaster was acquired by U.S. private equity firm Clayton Dubilier & Rice for US$5.5 billion in July 2007.
