Coby here with Coby’s tetlet Termite and Pest Control. Today, we’ve been talking about something that that normally, if you watch this channel, listen to us long enough, you know that I’m talking about questions that we get from customers and people in the Tampa Bay area, Clearwater, St, Peter, all those areas. And today it’s this going to be a little bit more about something that’s been that’s bothered me a little bit, but yet, it’s a badge of pride at the same time. And that’s when is a one star review a good thing for a pest control company. The first one is a never, you never want a one star review. And the correct you don’t want to have poor service that causes somebody to go ahead and say they didn’t do what they said they’re going to do, or whatever the case may be like that. However, however, if you go to somebody’s home and you explain the details of what you do, and you know that you’ve been doing this for over 20 years, and they give you a one star review because you’re expensive. Like, is that? Is that even a thing? You have hundreds of companies out there, you can go with anybody, but you give somebody a one story review because they’re expensive. Now, the first time it happened, how I was bothered terribly, what I can do, it’s like he’s a one star review like that. And then I start thinking about it, that’s a badge of honor. I mean, you’re expensive. Okay, yeah, I am why? Because we give the best service out there. I mean, you can drive any car you want, but, but we’re not a Kia. We’re we’re not, I mean, granted, they are getting a little better, and they look pretty cool too on occasion. But we’re not a cheap car or used car. We’re that, we’re that upper echelon company with what we do, and we have worked very, very three, very hard to go ahead and to get there when you literally devote 13 years of your life being on every single job, making the equipment, coming up with the formulas to go ahead and make sure what happens seeing, going back when somebody has a problem, figuring out why they have the problem, and You go on and on, and you just dedicate everything to that. And then you finally feel comfortable enough to say, Okay, now we’ve got this down. And then you train somebody, and you and you train somebody, they do 400 jobs before you let them go out on their own. There’s not another company that I’m aware of in the country that does that. So So yeah, we are more expensive, or we used to be more expensive. This year has been a crazy year where we’re getting prices all over the place. Some are just way higher than, than, than anything that we’re charging. But the reason we’re expensive is because our product well, first of all, just complain to you with all the training and what it took to develop the program, but also the product we use. If you do a fumigation on a home, or tenting on a home, and they take the 10 off, and you can go back in, well, so can the termites. There is no residual for that product, that part, that service, lasts you one minute for the time that everything was air. Dot, you can go back in, actually less time than that. Ours last for up to 50 years. We’re using products that two products that are transfer, products that will has been tested. Basically put a board in the woods and put product around it, see how long a glass and 95% effective over 15 years. Then you’re taking a liquid borate, putting it on the wood. Nothing’s known to take it out of the woods. So it’s basically a permanent treatment. So you have something that’s gonna last for 3040, 50 years versus five seconds. Yeah, that’s gonna be a little more special. So then that’s the only time I can think of. And there are other companies that have running across that same thing. They were too expensive for them. Well, okay, no, I don’t apologize. No, no, I really don’t. We’re expensive. We’re proud of that. It’s a badge of honor, and if I get a one star review because I’m expensive, I’m okay with that. I’m okay with that. So if you have questions, I don’t know about this, but about any bug. Problem, just give us a call. Be happy to talk with you. Oh, and whether you think we’re expensive or not, if you ask me about termite services, I do free consultations, I’d happy to talk to you to see if the person you finally picked that you can afford, whether or not you’re going to use us or not. I’ll be happy to tell you if they’re going to do the right job for you anyways. Hey, always remember, as long as God keeps faking them, we keep killing them. You have a great day. I.
