The proprietary William Blair/PCO M&A Specialists Pest Index increased 9 percent year-over-year in February 2025, the same as January’s result. The first two months of 2025 were slightly below the long-term average pest index growth rate of 10 percent.
“After normalizing for one less workday in February, the pest index increased 12 percent to 13 percent year-over-year,” says William Blair Equity Researcher Tim Mulrooney. “This is slightly stronger than January on a workday-adjusted basis, which may be partly explained by more difficult weather comparisons in January.”
Dan Gordon, CPA, who is Pest Management Professional’s financial columnist as well as a managing member in PCO Bookkeepers & M&A Specialists, added, “These results are in line with expectations, demonstrating the pest market’s overall strength and consistency.”
February 2025’s results by segment include:
- The Residential Pest Index increased 9 percent year-over-year.
- The Commercial Pest Index increased 10 percent year-over-year.
- The Termite Index increased 8 percent year-over-year.
- The Bed Bug Index increased 4 percent year-over-year.
