Twenty one years in the Pest Control Industry, no thanks! Too many do-gooders that question every move you make, for example; Awh, why have you got to kill those flies?

Hi Debbie. I worked on the underground trains for 24 years. Medically retired now though. All that dust damaged my lungs. But you have just reminded me,I must put the photos that I took on here.

In my day Krissy, anything that was an intruder into the home, like Peter, Rats, mice, moles, bats, snakes, pigeons, squirrels, rabbits, starlings, feral cats, stray dogs, fleas, bees, spiders, bedbugs, ants, wasps, flies....shall I go on? Today of course PCO's are not allowed to trap, take or kill anything without many, many precautions being adhered to! Just as well in some cases of course.

Edited specially for Peter.....mate!!

Glad Ron didnt come to my house, he would have got rid of me. Lol

Not really Krissy. Most of the time it was very boring. But it did have its moments though.

It's got to be an wealthy land developer, but to late now, you can bet I'd never have seen built an grocery store, shopping mall center on top of an hill with the greatest view in town though...even my great uncle was smart enough not to do that one... he wasn't around then either. It should of been an resturant/motel, and then maybe in front of it an few stores, to block the winter winds. As it is now...everyone has to drive there for the shopping also. There is no place to stay locally. Bad planning.
