Simoman 110 Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 When I worked for the council all we did was fill in a form called a flare detailing what treatment had been done and advice or details for return visits.......... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest craftycarper Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Probably method statements, risk assesments and all the health & safety crap they knock out these day's for a job that takes two hours to do and 4 hours to sort the paperwork out....

mole catcher 1 Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Bobnets; Spit it out mate. What exactly are ye after here? Call me nieve but it seems to me someone has assperations of becoming a full time pester I hope you have a sound marrage as starting out in this line of work can and will put a strain on the marrage, long unsociable hours and a lack of cash for the first few yrs. And to top it off a mans sanity can suffer Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Ditch_Shitter Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Four Courses? Insects, Rodents, Vertebrates and PPE? KillGerm? If so; Simple: Tell him to ask Lisa for a copy of their booklet, " Setting Up In Pest Control ". It's all in there - the paper work Must say, I have a very split feeling about " Garden Maintanence and Pest Control ". On the one hand, it's very astute of him to try to get two balls rolling as Pest Control can be a bitch to get a living from in the early years. Then again though; That title makes it sound a tad 'Handy Andy', doesn't it? Like the General Builder who'll gladly pop along to B&Q, buy some Bob Marten and squirt that into ye wasps nest, for an amazing figure of extra cash. See where I'm coming from? I mean, if I went for a ReWiring, I'd want a professional and experianced Electrician. Not some bloke who filled in with selling ice creams. Then again, as it happens, I do own a very good - and expensive - Brush Cutter. I have it for clearing harbourages. Also comes in damn handy round my own Holding. But I say that because I'm just considering the tremendous capital outlay required to 'tool up' for pro pesting. That's quite enough to stagger most people as it it. Then throw in what ever tools a man needs for garden work too? F*ck me; I hope he's minted! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
