TSCP sponsors PestCo Holdings, LLC — 28 disclosed transactions since late 2021, but no fund, intermediate holdco, or PestCo, LLC parent edge is publicly verified
Asked:
“As of September 3, 2026, reconstruct the current corporate ownership and operating hierarchy of PestCo Holdings, LLC / PestCo, LLC. Identify: Its ultimate private-equity sponsor and, if publicly verifiable, the specific controlling fund or investment vehicle. Every disclosed intermediate holding company and the immediate legal parent of PestCo. Every company, business, or set of assets acquired by PestCo since formation. For each acquisition, distinguish: legal entity versus brand or DBA; equity acquisition versus asset acquisition; still operating under its original brand versus absorbed or renamed; currently controlled versus subsequently sold, closed, or otherwise no longer controlled. Any conflicting or unresolved evidence. Return: A current hierarchy tree. A table with: child/entity, entity type, immediate parent, ultimate sponsor, acquisition date, transaction type, current operating status, current brand/domain, evidence date, and source URL. A separate list of former, stale, or unverified relationships. Use first-party company and sponsor pages, filings, registry records, and current transaction announcements where available. Do not treat ‘partner company,’ a portfolio listing, or an old acquisition announcement as sufficient proof of current legal control. Do not infer a specific legal parent or investment fund without evidence. Cite relationship-specific evidence for every edge and state clearly where the public record is not exhaustive.”
The scanned public record through September 3, 2026 — 43 cross-source acquisition candidate rows, 60 first-party TSCP/PestCo page mentions, 45 current-operating-evidence rows and 28 relationship sources — deduplicates to 28 disclosed transactions: 12 entity acquisitions or investments and 16 asset purchases. Thompson Street Capital Partners is the currently stated sponsor; no filing found names a fund, an intermediate holding company, or the legal parent of PestCo, LLC.
Hierarchy as publicly evidenced — solid edges only where the record expressly supports them
solid — expressly announced acquisition of the named entity by PestCo Holdings, LLC (post-close legal parent not independently verified)
dashed — sponsor/portfolio relationship, asset purchase, investment wording, or unresolved operating relationship
amber text — unresolved or unverified node
What the tree cannot say
TSCP’s own portfolio page and PestCo’s about page currently present PestCo Holdings as a TSCP portfolio company, but neither names the controlling fund or any intermediate holding company —
tscp.com,
pestcoholdings.com
PestCo’s terms of use say the sites are controlled by “PestCo Holdings, LLC, its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents” — site control language that never identifies which entity owns which subsidiary —
pestcoholdings.com
“PestCo, LLC” appears only in employment and job-board contexts; no source found expressly states its legal parent, so that edge is shown dashed and unresolved —
glassdoor.com
TSCP’s wording varies deliberately — “Acquires”, “Acquisition of … Assets”, “Invests in” — and this report preserves it; e.g. United Pest Solutions is “Acquires” in the TSCP headline but an asset acquisition in the cross-source rollup, a conflict flagged in the table —
tscp.com
No substantiated PestCo divestiture or closure announcement was found in the scan — absence of found evidence, not proof that none occurred —
tscp.com
Master table — 28 deduplicated transactions
| Child / entity | Entity type | Immediate parent | Ultimate sponsor | Acq. date | Transaction type | Current operating status | Current brand / domain | Evidence date | Source |
Immediate parent for entity deals reads “PestCo Holdings, LLC (named acquirer; post-close legal parent not independently verified)”; for asset purchases the acquired business’s legal entity is not shown as owned — only the assets moved. Sponsor column names TSCP as sponsor, not necessarily legal parent. Acquisition dates are announcement dates unless a source states closing.
Former, stale, conflicting, or unverified
- Specific controlling TSCP fund — unverified. No filing or first-party page found names the fund or investment vehicle; do not infer one. tscp.com
- Intermediate holding company above PestCo Holdings, LLC — not found. The record discloses none; the tree marks this gap explicitly. pestcoholdings.com
- PestCo, LLC’s immediate legal parent — unresolved. The name appears in employment contexts (Glassdoor snapshot equates “PestCo LLC” with PestCo Holdings’ operations) but no source states the ownership edge. glassdoor.com
- Portfolio and “partner company” labels (TSCP portfolio page, industry roll-up trackers) are sponsorship/marketing evidence only, not proof of current legal control. ctacquisitions.com
- Old announcements without current corroboration — e.g. Bel-O Pest Solutions (2022) and Mick’s Exterminating (2022) show no current brand-domain or employment evidence in the scan; status “acquired; current legal control unverified”. pctonline.com
- Live domains and job posts (ecoteam.com, romneypestcontrol.com, “part of the PestCo family of companies” postings) support continued brand operation, not survival of the seller’s original legal entity. careers.tscp.com
- Combined/duplicate announcement names deduplicated here: Green Pest Services and “Pointe Illinois” overlap the 2022 Pointe–IL deal; EcoTeam and Envirotrol share one 2021 investment; Pest Force and Boydstun share the Elrod Enterprises deal; Live Oak and PestBan+ share one announcement; Romney and Phenom share one asset deal. tscp.com
- Wording conflicts: Green Mango is called an unspecified acquisition by TSCP while a secondary deal database says it was “merged into PestCo”; United Pest Solutions and Garella carry “Acquires” headlines against asset-purchase rollup wording. Neither resolved. privsource.com
- Unrelated broad-search records excluded: Dependable Exterminating (JP McHale/Anticimex), Insight Pest Solutions (Greenix), Guardian Pest Control (Flick Anticimex), Romex Pest Control (Rollins), Westdale Pest Control (Orkin Canada) and Pestmaster are not PestCo companies. pctonline.com
- Dates: all acquisition dates shown are announcement dates unless a source expressly states a legal closing date.
Method: web and first-party record scanned through 2026-09-03 — current TSCP portfolio and news pages, PestCo pages and terms of use, current brand and employment pages, transaction announcements, and selected industry sources. Inputs: 43 cross-source acquisition candidate rows deduplicated to 28 transactions (composite announcement rows folded into their transactions), 60 first-party page mentions, 45 operating-evidence rows (6 unrelated companies excluded), 28 relationship sources. No ownership filing, cap table, purchase agreement, or complete registry chain was publicly located, so the public record is not exhaustive; announcement dates may differ from legal closing dates.
