About Bradford Pest Control
Your trusted pest control experts in Fredericksburg, VA, owned and operated by Dana Bradford. Dedicated to safe, effective, and environmentally responsible pest management for over 26 years.
A Local Company Built on Trust and Results
Bradford Pest Control of VA was founded by Dana Bradford with a simple but powerful mission: to provide the Fredericksburg community with pest control services that are effective, affordable, and safe for families and the environment. What began as one person's commitment to helping neighbors deal with common pest problems has grown into a comprehensive pest management company trusted by over 5,000 residential and commercial customers across Virginia, Washington DC, and Maryland.
Dana's philosophy, captured in the motto "If it Bugs You, Then it Bugs Me," reflects the personal investment we make in every job. We treat every customer's pest problem as if it were our own, bringing the same urgency, attention to detail, and commitment to results that we would expect for our own homes and families. This personal approach has been the foundation of our growth and the reason so many customers choose Bradford over larger, impersonal pest control chains.
Over more than 26 years, we have invested heavily in training, technology, and eco-friendly treatment methods to stay at the forefront of the pest management industry. Our technicians, including Pest Control Specialist Christopher B., hold all required state licenses and participate in ongoing education to stay current with the latest integrated pest management techniques. We have also made a deliberate commitment to environmentally responsible practices, using products and methods that effectively eliminate pests while minimizing impact on the ecosystem and ensuring the safety of children and pets.
Today, Bradford Pest Control serves a wide area that includes Fredericksburg, Alexandria, Arlington, Centreville, Leesburg, Manassas, Reston, Vienna, and surrounding Virginia counties, plus parts of Maryland and Washington DC. Despite our growth, we have never lost sight of the values that built our reputation: honest communication, thorough service, transparent pricing, and genuine care for every customer we serve. When you choose Bradford, you are choosing a local, licensed, and fully insured company that takes pride in protecting your home and your peace of mind.

Why We Are Different
Our prevention-focused process, combined with eco-friendly products and a rock-solid guarantee, sets Bradford apart from every other pest control company in the region.
Thorough Property Inspection
Every engagement begins with a comprehensive inspection. We examine your entire property to identify pest species, locate entry points, find nesting areas, and assess conditions that attract pests. This detailed assessment ensures our treatment plan targets the real problem.
Targeted, Eco-Friendly Treatment
Based on our inspection findings, we implement a customized treatment plan using products that are effective against pests but safe for your family and pets. We target the source of the problem, not just the visible symptoms, for lasting results.
Ongoing Maintenance & Prevention
Our work does not stop after the initial treatment. We provide regular maintenance visits to monitor conditions, reapply preventative treatments, and address any new concerns. This proactive approach ensures pests stay gone for good.
Our Satisfaction Guarantee
We are so confident in our methods that we guarantee your satisfaction. If pests return between your scheduled treatments, we will come back and re-treat your property at absolutely no additional charge. This is our promise to every customer, every time.
