This time around, Jerry and Bryan talk about the Pest Cemetery Live 2017 cruise. In addition, Jerry shares the experience of losing a 15 year technician to retirement and the joys of interviewing the tech’s replacement.

The guys also chime in on an outstanding Facebook post by Renee Vickers Ferree. Renee wrote:

“As the wife of an aspiring pest control owner/operator, what can I do to help start the business and give moral support to my husband during the startup phase?

What should I NOT do during this time?”

Thanks for the great question Renee!
