Pest Control Built Around Honesty and Service

At Nixem Pest Control, we believe taking care of your home shouldn’t start with a sales pitch. We’re a family-owned and operated pest control company built around three things: service, reliability, and honesty. That means we don’t try to scare you into buying services you don’t need. We don’t pressure you into long-term contracts. And we don’t disappear once the service is complete. We take the time to understand what’s happening, identify the source of the problem, and recommend the solution that makes sense for your property. Because when you call Nixem, we want you to feel confident that the problem is being handled by someone who genuinely cares.

Pest Control Solutions for Your Home or Business

Pest Control

From everyday household pests to termites and unwanted wildlife, Nixem provides complete pest control solutions throughout Wise County and surrounding communities.

Bi-Monthly Pest Control

Protect your home from unwanted pests throughout the year with our primary recurring pest-control service.

Your initial service includes treatment inside and outside your home along with an attic inspection. After that, we return every other month to treat the exterior and help keep pest pressure under control.

If pest activity appears between scheduled services, just give us a call.

Recruiting Should Solve More Than One Vacancy

Traditional recruiting often focuses on a single transaction: find a candidate, make the placement, collect the fee, and move on.
But hiring challenges rarely begin or end with one open position.
A growing business needs to understand who it should hire, how that person fits into the organization, how to attract the right candidates, how to evaluate them effectively, how to onboard them properly, and how to retain great employees once they are there.
Legacy Forge provides a different approach.

We work alongside business owners and leadership teams as an embedded talent partner, helping develop long-term solutions instead of temporary fixes.

Termite Inspections & Treatment

Termites can cause serious damage long before most homeowners realize they are there. Nixem provides complete termite inspections to determine whether termites are present and what treatment, if any, your property needs. If treatment is recommended, we can provide your options and pricing the same day. Depending on the property and termite activity, treatment may include trenching and rodding around the foundation or installing termite bait stations. You’ll get a straightforward assessment and a fair recommendation—not a fear-based sales pitch.

Wildlife Inspection & Exclusion

Hearing scratching, movement, or other noises in the attic or walls? We provide wildlife inspections for homes and businesses to identify what may be getting inside, locate possible entry points, and determine the right approach for getting them out and keeping them out. Our wildlife solutions can combine trapping with exclusion work to close off entry points. Where appropriate, we use metal repairs and can paint exposed areas to better match the surrounding trim.

Mosquito Reduction

Enjoy your yard without constantly fighting mosquitoes.

Nixem’s mosquito reduction service begins with an inspection of your property so we can identify the conditions contributing to mosquito activity and determine the right treatment approach.

Our service can combine targeted fogging with mosquito sterilization methods to help reduce mosquito populations around your property.

Available for:

  • Homes
  • Businesses
  • HOAs
  • Property managers
  • Community spaces

Sometimes the Solution Isn’t More Spray

Effective pest control starts with understanding why pests are there in the first place.

Nixem uses an Integrated Pest Management approach, commonly known as IPM, to look beyond the pest you can see and identify the conditions creating the problem.

That may include:

  • Entry points around the home
  • Moisture conditions
  • Food sources
  • Harborage areas
  • Landscaping conditions
  • Attic or structural access points
  • Outdoor pest pressure

Sometimes treatment is necessary. Sometimes prevention is the better answer. Usually, the best solution combines both.

Our goal isn’t to spray more. It’s to solve the problem correctly.

Embedded Talent Management

We Don't Just Recruit for Your Company. We Learn Your Company.

Finding someone with the right experience is only part of making a successful hire.

The right person also needs to fit the company’s leadership, expectations, culture, growth plans, and long-term needs.

That requires understanding the business behind the job description.

Legacy Forge works directly with owners, executives, and hiring managers to understand what the organization truly needs before recruiting begins.

From there, we can manage the hiring process from initial strategy through offer while helping establish the infrastructure needed to retain employees after they join the company.

This creates a talent strategy designed to support the next hire — and the next stage of growth.

FOUNDER STORY

Meet Walker I fell in love with pest control almost immediately after getting into the industry. What I enjoyed most wasn’t just solving pest problems. It was meeting people, getting to know customers, and building relationships through the work. I was fortunate to learn the industry from a mentor who taught me much of what I know today. Over more than 10 years in pest control, I also saw something I wanted to do differently. Too many companies rely on aggressive sales tactics, fear, unnecessary upsells, and contracts to win customers. That never sat right with me. My wife had encouraged me for years to start my own company. After finding out we were expecting our son, we decided it was finally time. In June 2026, Nixem Pest Control became a reality. I had actually been holding onto the Nixem name for years. Today, my mission is simple: build a pest-control company our community can trust and bring honesty and service back to the industry. If you have a pest problem, I’ll give you an honest answer and help you figure out the right way to handle it. You Got Em, We Nixem! — Walker Nickens Owner, Nixem Pest Control

When You Need Talent Leadership — But Not Another Full-Time Salary

Legacy Forge is designed for small and mid-sized companies that are growing, hiring, or experiencing people-related challenges but are not ready to build a large internal recruiting or HR department.

We can help when:

  • Hiring managers are overwhelmed with applicants
  • Positions remain open too long
  • The company is preparing to scale
  • Recruiting feels inconsistent or reactive
  • Employee turnover is becoming expensive
  • Hiring processes have never been formally developed
  • Leadership needs experienced guidance before making a major hire
  • A full-time recruiter or Talent Director does not yet make financial sense

Instead of adding another permanent executive-level salary, Legacy Forge gives growing companies access to experienced talent leadership when they need it.
