About Us
At Imel Pest Control, dependable pest and termite treatments are in our history. We’re a family-owned and operated company that takes pride in ridding homes and businesses of unsightly pests and hazardous termite infestations. Our grandfather began his pest control business in Somerset, Kentucky and the tradition of quality service and friendly customer care has been passed down for over four generations.
In 1967, our parents, Ralph & Tina, started their very own pest treatment business out of their home in Bethalto, Illinois. Armed with only a sprayer and a truck, Dad sprayed homes and Mom answered phones and kept things in order. Over the years, they stuck to the golden rule and relied on dedicated service and a friendly attitude to keep the business going.
However, this was truly a family-run operation, and Jill and Jan pitched in wherever we could. Jan helped her Mom take care of our customers at the office while Jill began spraying homes at age 20; she’s still one of our most knowledgeable and valued technicians to this day.
Even as Jill and Jan had taken over the business, They’ve never forgotten the lessons of hard work and courteous service instilled in us by our parents. “We’re grateful for each customer that we serve and give our thanks to those that have made us the Metro East leader in termite & pest control!”

"The service Tech Don talked me out of having what remained of a Hornets nest sprayed. He told me they won't be coming back to that nest. We appreciate his honesty.
They didn't charge me for this service call. This tells me they are more interested in giving great service than making more money."
