I have been with Cranbrook Pest Control for over eight years. I’m BC licensed and QualityPro/GreenPro-certified. I have lived and worked in the Cranbrook area for 20 years. My background is in the hospitality industry and I have experience and awards in the business and customer service sectors. I understand and do my best to meet customers’ needs. I follow the Integrated Pest Management rules in trying to find all possible solutions to solving your pest problems without the use of chemicals. I’ve learned to listen to the customer and inspect all areas of the home or business to put the best pest program in place. In my spare time, I enjoy golfing and spending time with my family and friends. If I can’t answer your questions, I’ll spend time to find the answers for you.

I’ve lived here in the Kootenays for 15 years and absolutely love what the area has to offer. I enjoy camping, fishing and hiking in many of the parks and back country areas throughout the region. I brought forward all my previous experience within the food and beverage industry and applied it to all the knowledge and experience I’ve acquired in pest control in order to provide the best possible service for you. I’ve also attended, along with my colleagues, the annual pest control conference where technicians like myself learn about all the latest industry information and technology.

Being a fairly new transplant to the Kootenays from the Okanagan, I am in awe of the beauty of the area and the genuineness of the people. My background is in safety inspection, construction and manufacturing so I bring a wide variety of knowledge to the pest control service. Being government tested and licensed assures you that my co-workers and I are fully qualified to look after all of your pest control needs. The Integrated Pest Management program teaches us the many options available in controlling your pest problems. In my spare time, I enjoy fishing, shooting, swimming and all the other activities that this great region offers. Let me thank you in advance for being able to be of service to you!

What is QualityPro?
QualityPro is an initiative designed to increase professionalism in the pest management industry. This dynamic program certifies companies based on comprehensive standards. Known as “the mark of excellence in pest control”, the QualityPro designation can be achieved by ensuring that all employees voluntarily ascribe to a set of standards far above what is required by provincial regulations.
Reserved exclusively for member companies of the National Pest Management Association, QualityPro companies are a distinguished group that continue to act as leaders and pioneers to better serve consumers across the country. Therefore, it is with great pride that we recommend you look for the QualityPro logo the next time you select a professional to eliminate your pest problems. Here are some examples of QualityPro standards that must be met before a company can achieve this exclusive designation:
-
All employees must undergo a comprehensive background check before ever showing up to service your account.
-
Companies must have a drug-free workplace policy that not only prohibits illegal drugs, but also requires employees to notify management if they are using prescribed medication that may impair their judgment, driving ability, performance or behaviour.
-
Motor vehicle record checks must be conducted on all employees that drive a company vehicle or a personal vehicle for the company.
-
Each employee that shows up to your residence or business is required to adhere to a strict uniform dress code and service vehicle maintenance and appearance policy. (We want to make a great first impression—no leaking oil on your driveway or dirty boots on your carpet!)
-
QualityPro ensures that companies must provide you with a warranty/service agreement that clearly outlines the scope of service in BOLD type on the first page of the contract.
-
Clear communication practices must be followed, including procedures for contacting the customer to schedule the inspection and notification.
-
Sales and service technicians must first meet testing minimums before they are eligible to work on your account. QualityPro feels that testing and training are among the most important aspects of any service industry.
-
The QualityPro program also contains an environmental stewardship aspect that requires companies to offer Integrated Pest Management services (IPM) to its customers. If you would like more information on what “IPM” means, just ask your service provider.
-
Advertising practices are put in place to ensure that companies don’t make false claims when soliciting your business. No images, words or misleading terminology!
-
All companies that enroll in the QualityPro program must have insurance minimums in place for workers comp, general liability and vehicles.
In addition, QualityPro strives to ensure that all companies in the program are meeting these criteria through continually conducting random audits on all program members.
Cranbrook Pest Control is proud to adhere to the high standards QualityPro has set, and we look forward to proving it to you!
