Washington's Pest Solutions LLC, owned and operated by Duvante Washington, is dedicated to providing top-notch pest control services with a focus on customer satisfaction. Duvante, originally from Timpson, Texas, graduated from Timpson High School in 2011, and went on to study business entrepreneurship at New Mexico State University. For the last ten years, and eight years at the helm, Duvante has cultivated a deep passion for his work. Duvante’s three-year-old son, Kahrson, inspires drive, responsibility, and motivation in every facet of Duvante’s life.

Duvante began his expertise at Terminex, where he worked for two years. Duvante became frustrated with the time constraints placed on employees, dissatisfied with the standard of speed over quality. “It felt like the customers didn’t matter at most times,” Duvante says. “So I made up my mind that when I started my own business, I would make sure to show the customers that they matter.” Today, he strives to give his best to each and every customer, ensuring they feel they’re part of the Washington’s Pest Solutions family. His free quarterly services are a clear example of his dedication to this mission.

Times weren’t always peaches and cream for Duvante. When he started Terminator Pest Solutions in 2017 (his first foray into business ownership), he faced numerous obstacles. Navigating the challenges of working part-time, or multiple jobs at the same time, was made easier by his unwavering resolve, the catalyst for his progress. In tough times, an inner voice reminded him that a more profound purpose awaited him.

With the birth of his son, Kahrson, in 2021, that profound purpose had arrived. “My perspective on life has been profoundly altered by Kahrson, who has instilled in me a renewed sense of purpose and motivation,” says Duvante. “Every endeavor I undertake is for his benefit. The gift of his birth has been the most precious blessing I have ever received from God, as it has revitalized my existence.” Kahrson, remarkably intelligent and deeply compassionate, remains Duvante’s source of strength. Three-year-old Kahrson is already refining his taste; he enjoys snacking on McDonald’s chicken nuggets and pepperoni pizza, being active in soccer and tee-ball, and watching The Lion King and Puppy Dog Pals.

Continually inspired by the precocious Kahrson, Duvante offers a comprehensive range of services, including general pest control, roach treatments, termite treatments, flea treatments, and mosquito treatments.  He’s set apart by his dedication to customer service, availability, and reliability, understanding the importance of being there when his customers need him, and providing solutions they can depend on. Driven by the desire to provide for his son and demonstrate genuine care to those in need, Duvante Washington’s journey is a testament to the power of resilience and care. Together, he and Kahrson are a super-team, and they’re ready to save the world, one pest at a time.
