Serving ALL of East Texas

Faith, Family, and a Calling to Serve

At RID-X Termite and Pest Control Services, pest control is more than a job. It’s a family legacy built on decades of hands-on experience and a commitment to doing honest work the right way.

Owners Tony and Kim Busby have spent their lives serving East Texas homeowners and businesses with integrity, hard work, and personal attention. When you call RID-X, you won’t reach a call center. You’ll speak directly with Kim or Tony, pest control professionals with decades of real-world field experience and a reputation for straightforward, dependable service.

A Legacy Built on Generations of Experience

The Busby family’s roots in pest control go back more than 80 years. Kim’s grandfather entered the industry in 1943, and her father later founded Pillow Termite & Pest Control in 1958.

Tony learned the trade firsthand, gaining practical knowledge that only comes from years in the field. After working together in the family business, Tony and Kim purchased RID-X in 2005, bringing that long-standing expertise to Tyler and surrounding communities.

Today, RID-X remains family-owned and owner-operated, continuing a tradition of hands-on service and accountability that spans generations.

Excellence Rooted in Traditional Values

RID-X stays intentionally small to ensure every customer receives personal attention and consistent quality. Tony and Kim make sure all their technicians are insured and equipped with modern pest control methods and environmentally responsible products from trusted manufacturers like BASF, Dow, and DuPont.

Their approach is simple: provide reliable solutions, fair pricing, and service that genuinely helps people protect their homes and businesses. That focus has earned RID-X a strong reputation throughout Tyler and East Texas for dependable pest control, termite treatments, and prevention services.

Our Promise

We believe in doing the job right the first time. If you ever have a question, concern, or recurring issue, you’ll speak directly with an owner who knows your property, your treatment plan, and your history with us.

That’s the RID-X difference—personal service, proven expertise, and a family-run company that stands behind its work.
