With 25 years of experience, DeLane carries on the family tradition of protecting Arizona homes with integrity, service, and expertise. Our story begins with a legacy of service. In 2002, after a decorated 27-year career as a Sergeant with the Ohio State Highway Patrol, Dennis Patterson founded Open Range Pest Control. Built on a foundation of integrity and a friendly, “never met a stranger” attit
ude, Dennis's commitment to solving his customers' problems allowed the business to grow rapidly, largely through word-of-mouth referrals. In 2011, following his own tradition of service as a United States Marine, DeLane Patterson partnered with his father to help lead the expanding family business. DeLane brought with him a deep passion for the science of pest management and a mission to become a leading expert in the industry. Today, DeLane proudly leads Open Range Pest Control, combining his father's founding principles with his own 25 years of hands-on industry experience. His extensive knowledge has earned him licenses in four states, including five in Arizona alone, and the prestigious QualityPro designation from the National Pest Management Association—the mark of excellence in pest management. Today, the legacy of service continues into a third generation, as DeLane’s son Christopher—also a proud U.S. This multi-generational commitment, from a State Trooper to two generations of Marines, is the foundation of our business. Our promise is simple: to combine decades of family experience and a passion for our craft to protect your home with integrity and expertise.
