CLEGG’S TERMITE & PEST CONTROL In the early 1960’s, Reverend Ralph E. Clegg discovered a growing problem at his church: pesky and destructive termites. To get rid of them, Rev. Clegg consulted professional pest control companies. Unfortunately, the cost was too high for his small church. So, he took matters into his own hands. With the help of a friend from North Carolina State University, Rev. Clegg learned all about termites. He gathered a few church members and began treating the church. Soon enough, the termites were gone. In fact, things worked so well, other church members soon started asking Rev. Clegg for help with their pest problems. And so, in 1964, Clegg’s Termite and Pest Control was officially born. What started as a DIY project, turned into a hobby and then quickly developed into a full-time business with 3 employees working out of the Reverend’s home. Six years later, his son, Phil Clegg, joined the firm. Fast forward more than 50 years and Clegg’s can only be described as thriving. With Phil Clegg now serving as President and Phil Jr. as Vice President, Clegg’s and its 300 employees continue to provide termite and pest control to customers from 13 locations across North Carolina.
