Bed Bug Battles ADVERTORIAL F or Shawn Payne owner of Cleveland Ohio based Lakewood Exterminating the summer of 2016 was a hot one Many of Paynes customers needed treatments for their non air conditioned homes Treating these homes often left Payne dehydrated so he began to search for a product to help him cut back on treatment time and manpower Luckily the summer of 2016 was also when he discovered Technicides Exacticide Duster Payne attended the Global Bed Bug Summit in Indianapolis where he met Jim Harper the owner of Technicide After talking to Jim I instantly gained a great deal of respect for him His confidence and pride in his business is second to none Payne remembers Payne purchased his first Exacticide Duster that July The time I spent on bed bug services dropped dramatically Payne remembers It paid for itself in under two weeks of using it Exacticide is a handheld battery powered duster that is compatible with both fine granule baits and dusts It can be used for interior and exterior applications and helps technicians avoid overapplication of products The Exacticide duster is a highly specialized tool explains Payne It positively charges the dust and allows for some real precision getting products into some really tight crevices The precision of the product was appealing but the decrease in manual labor that originally attracted Payne to the product was the real selling point The extension tubes and other accessories make it really versatile he says I can put the extension tubes onto a telescopic pole and pump dust into a crevice 30 ft above the ground This battery is pretty durable too he continues I often go a couple weeks between charging it which is impressive if you consider that I use it on nearly every job The addition of the duster meant more than just a new way to apply product and cut back on the physical toll of treating accounts It also meant more time to spend growing the business Soon after adopting the Exacticide Duster I was able to fit an extra job into my route Not many pieces of equipment can do that Payne says With so many responsibilities at work and home thats a huge plus Now I can make an extra 100 per day and get home an hour early That makes a huge difference in my well being as an owner operator Payne says Payne offers the following tips for those interested in integrating the Exacticide Duster into their pest management regimen For normal use Payne suggests the fiber pole kit Use the plastic canisters to store separate dusts in Two spare canisters can fit in the carrying case The 18 ft extension tubes come in handy The new version of the carpet application is really nice for treating fleas and bed bugs Try the duster if you want to start doing crack and crevice treatments It lowers pesticide exposure for you and your customers The perfect tool for a budding business Technicides Exacticide Duster has helped an Ohio PMP grow his profit margin BED BUG BATTLE Company Lakewood Exterminating BaTTLEFIELD Residential homes and apartments of Cleveland Ohio War STory Owner operator Shawn Payne needed a product that would reduce manpower and time spent treating accounts all while increasing the precision of product application WEAPON OF CHOICE ConTroL SoLUTIon Technicide Exacticide Dusters WEBSITE Technicide com Shawn payne mypmp net Pest Management Professional November 2017 B11
