What the register says about First Response Exterminating
First Response Exterminating holds pesticide business licence no. 16456 from the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS), Office of Pesticide Services. Listed on the VDACS Licensed Pesticide Businesses report generated 11 Nov 2026, with the licence expiry recorded as 31 Mar 2027.
VDACS lists one structural category for this business: 7-A (general pest control (industrial, institutional, structural, health-related)). It does not hold category 7-B, so on the register it is licensed for general pest or fumigation work rather than wood-destroying pest control; ask before booking a termite treatment.
The registered address is 245 Hooker Place, Staten Island, NY 10303, in Richmond County. The headquarters is outside Virginia: 234 operators on the VA register (24%) are licensed to work in the state from an out-of-state base.
The nearest other licensed operators on this register are Bell Environmental Services Inc (18.5 mi), Sure Shot Termite & Pest Control (19.1 mi) and Korean Pest Control (20.1 mi); 4 sit within 50 miles. 3 of those neighbours hold the termite category.
For price context: no source we could find publishes termite treatment prices for Virginia. Nationally, HomeGuide's compiled estimates put whole-home liquid treatment at $500-$2,000+, bait stations at $1,000-$2,500 and tenting an average-sized home at $2,000-$8,000, and a contract renewal at $150 to $500 a year.
The phone number on the register is (917) 442-4444. Confirm the licence number with the VDACS before paying a deposit; the register extract above reflects the 11 Nov 2026 snapshot, not today's status.

This register extract is a consumer guide, not a referral service and not an endorsement of any operator. We are not a pest control company. A listed business pays nothing to appear here or for its position, and nothing on this site is for sale to operators.
