Rolfe 2 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 I have just come back from Surveying a house for a letting agent.......the previous tenants had been evicted for non-payment of rent. "We think we have a slight problem with Cockroaches" he optimistically said. I then proceeded to show him the monitor traps i had put down a week earlier....."Slight problem....err Yeah Right..!" The entire three storey property ( Brand new house by the way) was infested with the damn things. It will take me lots of visits to clear up this sorry mess thats for sure........how some people can live like it is beyond me The picture shows just one of 20 monitor traps......each and every one had a similar catch. So......if you are thinking of getting into pest control........you have to take the good with the bad in this job......the Rural pest control........is the good side.......But this is where you really DO have to produce results.....Happy Day's Rolfe.

stubby 175 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 as much as I hate insects in general, cockroaches have to give the most satisfaction when dealing with, and compleating a job, cockroach free did you see the american tv show "verminators" one visit, a bit of spray, and the tech annoucess, your house is "cockroach free" Quote Link to post

patchworkcrew 0 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 Hello I don't know much about this side of pest control - moles are my thing - so sorry if this a bit obvious! What are the worm-like things in the centre of the picture? Is something caught or part of the bait? Bob G Quote Link to post
