Honesty with all of my interactions would be at the top of my list. Also respect and to treat others better than you wish to be treated.

I have a great family and we are a reasonably large clan. I am married to Tracey and we have 4 children (two girls who are young adults) and two younger boys who make life interesting and keep us on our toes every day. We are heavily involved in sport and the community.

4) What do you like to do outside of work?

Know your pest technician, interact with them, this will assist in achieving your desired outcome as quickly as possible.

It’s been a great experience. The best part being the variety of people I have met and the large variety of work. No two jobs are the same and that keeps everything positive and upbeat.

In my time in the Glenelg area I have dealt with a wide range of issues, everything from  ant infestations through to termites, rats & mice, birds, bed bugs, wasps, bees and cockroaches, you name the pest and I can say I’ve seen it in Glenelg. We are also now seeing large numbers of pigeons and a lot are setting up homes under solar panels, they also enjoy coming down and picking up the crumbs from when we are eating at our local bakeries and restaurants.
