Everyone knows the economy isn’t very good right now, except pests. They bite, sting, contaminate, infest, damage, spread disease, regardless of the economy. Like we say on our business cards, “There were even pests in the Garden of Eden”. Our logo has Adam holding an Apple with a larvae sticking out of it, although very hard to see. To us, this means pests have always been here and they are always going to be here.

So in this economy, I’m sure every pest control company has taken on more cancels than they normally would, but how is business overall? We’ve grown every year since 1971, in part, becauses pests don’t watch or read the news. Maybe people shouldn’t pay as close attention to it either - I bet our economy wouldn’t be so bad right now if we didn’t hear every day how bad it was.
