About us

A family firm with rural roots

Meindýraeyðir Íslands is a family firm where licensed pest-control professionals provide pest control for businesses and homes. The story began not in an office, but with a farmer fighting mice and spiders. That straightforward rural outlook still guides us today.

Our story

From the farm to the whole country

  1. 1998

    A farmer has had enough of mice and spiders

    Steinar Smári Guðbergsson first encountered pest control in 1998. As a farmer, he had grown tired of mice and spiders in the farmhouse and outbuildings, while products from the shops simply were not enough. He trained and qualified as a certified exterminator and took matters into his own hands.

  2. 2005

    An interest becomes a lifelong profession

    What began as an interest grew steadily, and Steinar has worked full time as a certified exterminator since 2005.

  3. Today

    Meindýravarnir Suðurnesja becomes Meindýraeyðir Íslands

    The company was originally called Meindýravarnir Suðurnesja. As its customers spread beyond the Suðurnes region, the name changed to reflect its nationwide work. Today Meindýraeyðir Íslands serves businesses in a range of Icelandic industries throughout the country.

The environment

Environmental protection is part of every decision

Environmental protection is not a campaign. It is part of daily operations:

  • We minimise the release of harmful substances into the environment.

Our goal is clear: to rank among the leading comparable companies in environmental practice.
