Native Pest Management exhibited at the Kidsfest event in Tallahassee, Fla., at Cascades Park on April 29.

This year, over 45 businesses were involved in the event and thousands of people attended.

KidsFest is an annual festival presented by Kids Incorporated, a United Way member agency that provides Early Head Start learning services to families at five locations in Jefferson, Leon, and Madison Counties in North Florida. The festival began in 2022 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Kids Incorporated.

“Kidsfest was so much fun! We loved hanging out with the kids and we were so happy to see that they enjoyed making the crafts. It was also so good to see so many other local businesses in such a great community event. We’re excited to return to Kidsfest next year,” Shauna Crissey, internal operations manager at Native Pest Management said in the news release.

Native Pest Management’s booth included arts and crafts from PestWorld For Kids, which included mouse & ladybug headbands. The booth also had a raffle with a $300 value gift basket. Seven volunteers worked at the booth, all employees at Native Pest Management. They helped with setup and breakdown, managing the arts and crafts during the event and engaging with the community.

Native Pest Management was one of the many local businesses that participated in the event. As a family-owned business, the team said in a press release, “Native Pest Management was proud to support an event that celebrates families and education. KidsFest was also a great opportunity for our company to showcase our commitment to safe and environmentally friendly pest control practices.”
