Our Story
Paragon Pest Solutions was founded by Derek Anders with a straightforward mission: deliver honest, effective pest control to the Yadkin Valley community he calls home. Based at 114 Matts Pl in Advance, NC, Paragon is a local company in every sense — not a franchise, not a call center, not a national brand with a local phone number.
Derek built Paragon because he saw a gap in the local market: homeowners and business owners who deserved responsive, knowledgeable service from someone who actually knows the area. The pests common to Advance and the surrounding Yadkin Valley — from subterranean termites to mosquitoes that thrive in our humid summers — require local expertise, not one-size-fits-all national protocols.
Every product we use is EPA-registered and family-safe. Every technician is licensed by the state of North Carolina. And every job comes with the personal accountability that only a locally owned company can deliver. That is the Paragon standard — and it is why we have earned 236 five-star Google reviews from neighbors across the Yadkin Valley.
