Company History
Hopper Termite and Pest Management was started in 1963 in Mountain Home, Arkansas, by two bothers Merlin and Lynn Hopper. In 1965 Merlin realized there was a need for quality pest control services in Central Arkansas as well, so he opened an office in beautiful Heber Springs. In 1968 Glenn Hopper moved back home from Chelan, Washington and joined his bother Lynn in Mountain Home. In 1990 Glenn and his family moved to Heber Springs and he became the sole owner.
There are currently three generations at Hopper Termite and Pest Management ensuring that our values and commitment to quality never cease. Our family has focused on creating growth and providing Heber Springs and surrounding communities throughout Central Arkansas with superior service with reliable results, and we will continue to do so, for many years to come.
