Just curious about everyone's situations.
I have an occasional helper for clean outs and bigger snake round ups but not for trapping.

Just started this business in June, and solo here.


A trap is only a trap if you dont know about it. If you know about it, its a challenge

I should have asked to. Do you want employees or are you wanting to stay a one man operation?

I am busy enough to expand and hire some employees, but coming from a business where I had over 30 employees. I don't want the grief. I am enjoying being solo. The govt has made it so hard to hire people nowdays. As soon as you hire them you become their nanny with workmans comp and unemployment ect. I don't want any part of that anymore. A pest exterminator friend of mine recently tried to take his business to the next level and hired a guy to help. When it got slow he laid him off. The man has been collecting unemployment for a long time because the benifits keep getting extended. My buddy last I heard owes the state unemployment fund over $20,000 now. Throw in uncertanty about Obamacare and it is not hard to figure out why unemployment doesn't come down.

I think it's only proper to give credit where credit is due. Thanks Kasey and Baxter, for giving me another wonderful idea for my column in WCT. ( I know, it really sucks that you have to buy the issue to see what I wrote. ) Of course, if neither one of you has ever had a subscription, I can see to it that you get a year for free!

Baxter, if you have never received a subscription to WCT before, PM me your name and address and I will buy you a year's subscription. ( And this goes for all of you )

P.S. If you've had a previous subscription and are just too cheap to renew, don't waste my time. New guys only please.
