The Pest Management Career Training Course

The Pest Management Career Training Course

 

Dean Stanbridge, Direct Line Sales Stored Product Pests – A Great Source of Revenue

First, we really need to thank Dean for coming all the way down from Canada to participate in the New York Pest Expo this year. He is always a great technical resource with fresh material to share.  His message: Stored product pests (SPPs) are on the rise; adding this service to your residential and commercial accounts can lead to a significant new source of growth for your company.

With the growth in global commerce, reduction of pesticide use, and an increase in organic approaches, SPPs have rebounded and are posing a significant challenge to Pest Management Professionals (PMPs). The food supply has been affected and people are increasingly concerned when they find evidence of these critters in their pantry.  Imagine finding SPP larvae in your Twix bar. Dean did! Even with his pest management background he was still grossed out. If love handles weren’t enough of an incentive to stop eating junk food, the larvae certainly did it.

Pest Control and the Protection of Food and Public Health

You asked, we listened and are delivering!

Bug Off Pest Control Center is proud to provide a variety of training and informational seminars to the pest control industry throughout the year. This year is no exception. We kicked off 2011 with a great business leadership workshop “Building Wealth in the Pest Control business” presented by Dan Gordon, PCO Bookkeepers.  We had a great turnout and lots of great feedback. In fact, if you were there, tell us what you thought of the session here in our comments section.
