Insight to Impact: How Steeple & Hudson Pest Control Built Precision and Accountability in Large-Scale Pest Management with Envu

From People-Powered Beginnings to Science-Led Confidence

In this episode of Insight to Impact, we feature Mr. S. R. M. Rao, Managing Director of Steeple & Hudson Pest Control, a company that has delivered precision-led pest management across complex facilities in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and Chennai for 27 years. 

Founded as a small team of friends and built steadily over time, Steeple & Hudson now operates with more than 150 operations professionals who serve food and pharma plants, corporate offices, real estate projects, and residential communities. The team adapts methods to each site while maintaining the reliability, safety, and accountability that define the company.

In the early years, shifting methods and inconsistent documentation across the industry made outcomes unpredictable from one location to the next. Steeple & Hudson needed a more scientific and dependable approach that could raise standards and deliver consistent results across diverse environments.

That turning point came early in their journey, when Steeple & Hudson began working with Envu, previously known as Bayer Environmental Science. Since then, Envu has supported the team with science-led training, on-site briefings, and proven solutions that helped earn trust across facility managers, compliance stakeholders, and community administrators. Products such as Temprid, Maxforce, Aqua K-Othrine, and Solfac WP10 became part of day-to-day protocols, reinforcing a preventive, process-driven program

“Success in this industry is not about shortcuts. It is about knowledge, consistency and the right partnership. Envu has been that partner, helping us grow with confidence for nearly three decades.” — S. R. M. Rao, Managing Director, Steeple & Hudson Pest Control

Today, Steeple & Hudson’s preventive program is the standard across the gated communities and corporate facilities they manage. Site-specific protocols and disciplined application, including a shift from diesel-based thermal fogging to cold fogging where appropriate, are backed by documentation and Envu’s technical partnership so that outcomes are consistent, auditable and trusted.
