How We Started
Founded by a Guelph Local Who Wanted to Do Things Differently
Summit Pest Control was founded by Tateum O’Hanlon, a Guelph local who saw how many large companies treated customers like numbers. After dealing with impersonal service and corporate runaround himself, Tateum knew there was a better way. He set out to build a pest control business focused on trust, transparency, and genuine care - the kind of service you’d expect from a neighbour, not a faceless franchise.

Why Professional Help Works
Why DIY Mice Control Often Fails in Guelph Homes
While store-bought traps can catch individual mice, they rarely solve the underlying problem. Mice reproduce rapidly with a single pair producing 60+ offspring in one year. Without professional entry point sealing and exclusion work, new mice will continue entering your home through cracks as small as a dime. We identify and seal all entry points including foundation cracks, utility penetrations, and gaps around doors and windows. We target the entire mouse population with strategic trapping and baiting programs, not just individual mice you see. We provide ongoing monitoring and seasonal protection to keep mice out permanently, saving you money and frustration long-term.
