Plunkett's Pest Control Acquires Horizon Pest Management (Wis.)

MILWAUKEE, Wis. – Plunkett’s Pest Control, Inc. announced its acquisition of Horizon Pest Management, a locally owned company based in Milwaukee, Wis. This acquisition grows Plunkett’s presence in Wisconsin.

Horizon was founded in 2002 by Craig Wycklendt, with the support of his wife, Shawn. After working in sales for a national pest management company, Wycklendt realized he enjoyed the personal side of the business — setting up services, building relationships and earning the trust of customers who often asked for him by name, said Plunkett's Pest Control.

Many of Wycklendt's clients have been with him for those 20 years, said the company.

“As I step back from the day-to-day, I feel confident knowing my customers will be in great hands with Plunkett’s,” said Wycklendt. “They share the same values we’ve built Horizon on — treating people and their homes with care and respect. It’s reassuring to know our clients will continue receiving the personal service they’ve come to expect.”

Aly Silva Mulgrew, president of Plunkett’s Pest Control, shared, “Craig’s story is one of perseverance, loyalty and genuine care for people. Those are the same values that drive us at Plunkett’s, and we’re honored to carry on the legacy he built over the past two decades.”

Wycklendt will remain in an advisory role for a short time during the transition before fully stepping away. Horizon customers will receive the same personal, high-quality service, which is now being supported by Plunkett's Pest Control, said the company.
