When you need a Professional Speaker on bugs, who do you call?

Comments Off on When you need a Professional Speaker on bugs, who do you call?

 

From the age of probably 15 I knew I didn’t have a problem speaking to any crowd. My first taste of this type of endeavor was a public speaking contest with The American Legion and my talk was about conservation. While only placing 3rd with the state, I thought I had done a pretty commendable job.

Really enjoying a topic as I do bugs, makes it easy and I can most of the time discuss just about any bug out there. If I don’t know the answer I can always find out and get back to the person asking. I had a chance to work for a Chemical Manufacturing company and had the opportunity to speak in many different countries about my knowledge of the bugs we encounter here in the State’s. My largest group was approximately 500 people.

This last week I spoke to a group on “Biting and Stinging Pest”  here in Arizona. We live with bugs everyday, I heard once that we are within 5 feet of a bug every minute of our lives. Scary isn’t it?

Are you a Realtor or Broker, how about a Property Manager and could you use some additional knowledge about insects? I think all of us could use a little more knowledge and should continue to learn until we check out. Do you know what to do if you encounter Africanized Honeybees or Bed Bugs?

One of my favorite things to do is to speak and give presentations to all sorts of groups. One thing I sure don’t have is a phobia about public speaking. Sometimes instead of talking about a certain subject I enjoy people asking questions, they ask and hopefully I can answer the question or find out more.

There was one question I couldn’t answer * Let’s say ProBest handles are bees in a home and about 3 months later we have evidence of honey and wax dripping inside the house – Is this covered by Homeowner’s Insurance?

I called my State Farm Agent’s office and posed that question and here was the answer “Generally speaking they don’t cover insects or their damage and it is similar to a termite issue which isn’t covered until a HomeOwner Policy”.

One last note – It’s not always about whether the person can answer the question but rather that they know who to call if they can’t answer it!

Many companies are excellent at doing pest control but may not have the ability or knowledge to accomplish certain out of the range pest control. Case in point:

  • Large 8 story hotel had bats – ProBest Pest Management – handled and solved the problem. Case closed…
  • Africanized honeybees between 3rd and 4th floor of another large hotel – eliminated bees and caulked/sealed the openings. Case closed…
  • 2 story building – Africanized honeybees. Treated and issue completed. Case closed…
  • Large hotel/restaurant bats in attic – night job, exclude bats and clean up bat guano. 19 bags of guano, sealed entrances – no entry for bats. Case closed…

ProBest Pest Management is often referred by the Arizona Extension Office and the Arizona Game and Fish Department, we are knowledgeable and experienced. If your pest control professional is unsure or just can’t handle the job – “Call a Pro… Call the Best. ProBest!
