On the road with Kiki – Episode 17
Thanks for joining us yet again for our latest episode of On the Road with Kiki. We shadow pest consultant Kristian, as he takes us to homes and businesses around Adelaide to assess pest problems.
Today, Kristian starts off the day in Port Adelaide to have a chat with termite technician Ryan Drennan about his work. While Ryan certainly finds his job interesting, he really enjoys being a part of the Allstate team because there is a close-knit family atmosphere where everyone is happy and strives to “kick tail and be proud of it”. His favourite company value is owning your mistakes, fixing them and moving on.
Then it’s off to look at active termites in a tree stump in the front yard of a home. While he completes a quick assessment of the home today, he still recommends a full inspection to make sure that all areas with active termites are detected. This inspection will cover the entire home, using specialised equipment including a moisture meter and borescope. He leaves the client with a quote for a baiting system and monthly to bimonthly reviews.
Next up, a client wants a quote for Allstate to takeover another company’s existing termite system at their home. Coincidentally, it turns out to be Sentricon, the same system that Allstate uses. Thankfully, while he doesn’t detect any active termites in the current baiting system, he still measures up and provides them with a takeover quote.
Kristian wraps up his Friday at his friend’s house, which has substantial evidence of termite activity, but strangely, no sign active termites. However, they can still be lurking nearby, so just to be safe, Kristian recommends a spray treatment be carried out, as well as installing a termite protection system.
