Whatever Happened To These Pest Control Tools?

Oldie but goodie
Tried and true

You worked so well
What happened to you

You were $900 bucks when you were pristene
Now covered in dust, my grand foam machine

Cracked and brittle you no longer reach all
Gone are the days of my 3 foot Whitmire straw

No longer in stock you use to sit by my puffer
I do miss the exact little doses of my Niban snuffer

What about you who wouldn’t clog if I tried
Replaced by a log jam but still called Tri Die

And where is the residual and was any knockdown faster
Than my painted on friend the ultimate Killmaster

Old techniques too under foot are trod
Does anyone ever even attempt the old long rod

Replaced revamped and targeted tools
Give way to the DIY and other such fools

No care or skill or once respected expertise
Are found in todays tools no not like all these

Who cares if it’s sweet eating or complex biology
For a mere $20 bucks and a hosing I’m told I’ll be bug free

I don’t need an expert I don’t need seasoned vet
This sites got the answer with my hard earned money I’ll bet

This can is shiny this concoction is new
Just a few more dollars but I’m not calling you

So new and improved will always march on
Experience and knowledge are these things gone

Since bugs don’t care if you have the latest sprays or bait
And clients want dead bugs and for this they can’t wait

New tools will come and go as the old disappears
But nothing will erase clients phobias disapointments and fears

So bring on the modern and latest miracle sprits
You can’t delete the old technician to where your new can of fogger still sits
