Hey, everyone! I’m Ben Harl, host of the brand new podcast, Degesch America Presents!
We at Degesch America, Inc. are very happy to have the opportunity to talk to you about the industry that we work in.
Ok, pest control…..I know it doesn’t exactly sound glamorous. I can’t tell you how many times in my career I’ve been known simply as the “bug guy.” But, I’m hoping that this podcast will help shed some light onto just how important our industry is, how technical and innovative we have to be in order to provide the service we do, and why we should all take pride in our jobs!
Our plan with this podcast is to bring insight, news, and knowledge to folks who work in the pest control industry. We’re gonna cover all sorts of topics as we progress; everything from stored product pest identification, inspection techniques, types of control methods; all of the steps necessary to achieve control, and so many other wonderful ways that we in the industry help protect our world’s food supply.
And hey, I can’t do this on my own, so I’ll be inviting experts to join me to help make sense of all this information. And luckily enough there are plenty of knowledgeable folks in our industry to choose from. Who better to learn from than the people we already look up to, right?
