Some funny/interesting pest control stories

So I wanted to try and write some funny things that have happened so far during my year on the job doing pest control.
As a pest control technician, I see a lot of different, odd, strange, and funny things, as well as the basic "there's a bee on my porch" type things.  Some of these odd, strange, funny things, people like to hear about, so I want to try and put them here, hopefully to entertain you, and so I don't forget in the future :).

The first thing I get to experience is going places I've never been.  Last year I was traveling a road in the boonies where this gentleman has a LOT of land.  A HUGE field.
 The funny thing about this is last year he had a huge moose cutout was at the base of the field.  This year though, he got rid of the moose and put in what you see up there.  I HAD to pull over because I was laughing so much.  This is the neighborhood, where just down the road, another land owner has a scarecrow in his field with Hillary Clinton's face on it.  Sorry, no picture on that.



Another story:

I was maintaining a grocery store, and we have boxes that hold rodent bait around the outside of the store.  Hey, they throw a lot of food away and it attracts rats and mice OUTSIDE the store.  Well, just last week I was going around the store and making sure the boxes were clean and full of bait, when I opened one and saw THIS:

Needless to say I jumped back a bit and pee'd my pants a little.  LOL.

I've got a bunch more experiences that I'd like to share, but right now I'm cooking lunch and need to stop.  I'll leave you with one more pic.....where else but NEPA is a bidet used for a flower planter?  Yes, this was in someone's home.  Hear the banjo music?




Find something to be grateful for, and enjoy your spring.  Chat more soon.
