Yesterday was an amazing day, it started with a morning celebrating the 10th birthday of the Broadstairs Business Club, I have been a member of this club since 2018. A breakfast was laid on for club members and guests, speeches followed by our chairman Michael Cannon on how the club was formed, Sir Roger Gale gave tales on how he secured funding A299 by scaring civil servants, Councillor Mike Garner on how the club is a positive for Broadstairs , Emma from STAK.life CIC on the amazing work her and her husband are doing for neurodivergent kids in Thanet and then it was my turn to deliver a speech on how membership of the club has been an aid to growing Pestraid.
The day ended on a high note too with a lovely customer review.

I had a great start to the day today, I presented an overview of how Pestraid came about, how it’s developed along with sharing some of the knowledge I have gained along the way.
It’s certainly not a rags to riches story (I clearly can’t afford a haircut at the moment) but I am genuinely richer in fulfilment compared to my past working life.
As for Broadstairs Business Club they have been one of the most supportive groups of people I’ve ever had the pleasure of being amongst, it’s a networking group that by its nature is full motivated people, not just interested in their own success but for the growth and development of every member.
Individuals in the group that I didn’t know before joining took the time to listen to me as I was setting off, allowing me the time to bounce my thoughts around whilst they added their knowledge of business to the conversation.
This ride of making a business work would have been a lot grimmer without this group.

This is Brian the bird
Brian unfortunately has been a bit of a pickle and got into a spot of bother.
Brian liked to chew on wires, electrical wires! This sadly lead to the early demise of one of his parents and his sibling.
Brian’s family had been living in a loft when the chewing behaviour started, resulting in the electrics “blowing”.
An electrician found Brian amongst the bare wires. Parakeets have extremely strong beaks and can give a solid bite.
was called to help deal with the situation we have the appropriate handling equipment.
As are not on the General Licence for bird work, we would not usually interfere during nesting season. However due to the incident of electrocution, it was a case of abandoned nest by the surviving adult.
So what to do with Brian? Well it was Brian’s lucky day at Pestraid we do things properly. There was no need to cull Brian as he seemed undamaged, we called a local vet who was willing take Brian in.
Young Brian was popped in to a box and taken to the kind vets.
We will check in with Brian in a few days.
Pest management is often wrongly thought of as “just killing things”, nothing could be further from reality professional pest management companies like Pestraid do as much as possible through environmental management and education before looking other options.
