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.

Pest Control Companies that host blogs may find they reach a new niche of customers who are tech savvy, don’t want to talk to people until they are ready, travel a lot, or work hours outside of the typical M-F 9-5.

At ADAM’S, we are trying to reach those customers, which we believe are no longer a niche but a significant and growing part of our population. We are well suited for these customers, I feel, in part because I fit that profile. I have a Computer Science degree from the University of Minnesota and like to research things, often reading blogs, to ensure what I’m going to buy is something I have confidence in. I love a company who gives me a fair amount of information about them on their website and know that they are technically adept. Hopefully our prospective customers will appreciate this about us too. Let us know what you think.
