Batzner Celebrates 70 Years in the Pest Control Business

NEW BERLIN, Wis. — Batzner Pest Control announced it has entered its 70th year in business.  “The growth and positive change we’ve experienced over the years are products of the legendary service our team members provide every day,” said Jerry Batzner, President and CEO. “If team members feel valued, and we’re connected to what’s important to them, they’ll be engaged with the company and our customers.”

Now in its third generation of family ownership, Batzner Pest Control has been protecting homes and businesses since 1946, when the company was founded by Ed Batzner. Though much has changed in the last 70 years, a few things remain the same. The Batzner family is still putting customers first with its Legendary Service promise and exclusive Balanced as Nature SystemTM, both unique in the pest control industry. 

Batzner prides itself on being a pest control partner in every sense of the word, with expertise in both residential and commercial accounts. Experiencing double digit growth for the past twenty years, Batzner has expanded its service area to include Green Bay, Madison, and south through Chicago. The company offers expert advice to homeowners that is specific to their situation, and provides sanitation consulting, educational sessions, and in-house training programs for business and industry clients.  

The company has also worked hard to retain an employee-friendly environment and attract top employees to its team. As a seven-time winner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Top Workplace Awards, most recently in 2016, its clear employees appreciate this dedication. Dave Kusnierek, District Service Manager, explains, “It’s a very caring organization, very people oriented. We treat people with respect.”
