I’d like to think some version of this conversation has occurred at least once at every pest management company:

“Man, you would not believe the account I just came from. It was bed bug heaven/raining roaches/a sea of rats/a sanitation nightmare/insert similar metaphor here.”

“That intense, huh?”

“It would make a killer story in Pest Management Professional (PMP) magazine.”

Instead of agreeing and then moving on, as so often happens, why not drop us a line about it? We’re holding a contest for the worst Pest Nightmares. If your entry is picked, we’ll feature you and your solution in an upcoming issue.

Please make sure you can back up your Pest Nightmares story with basic documentation such as video, photos and/or signed reports. We all enjoy a good fish story, but we’re not seeking fiction writers — at least not this time around.

If you’re interested, please send me the who, what, when and where at hgooch@northcoastmedia.net. Who knows? Your nightmare might lead to a dream profile worth bragging about.
