Meet Chris McLendon, one of our Pest Control Supervisors. Chris has been a part of the Active Pest Control family since August of 2008. That is over 8 years of training and experience in pest control; and over 8 years of dedicated, exceptional service from Chris to our clients. He holds HPC certification and has proven to be a strong leader. Chris is a hands-on supervisor and especially loves the mystery and suspense when first arriving at a job with the task of figuring out which of the many pests is an issue in each particular case. Chris stated, “I enjoy the sleuth work associated with resolving any pest issue.” Chris is definitely one of our top ‘pest detectives’!

As is often the case, pests are not always what they seem. For instance, an infestation of fleas could actually have a rodent infestation at its root. The one thing that all pests have in common, however, is that they all have to come from somewhere. To successfully eliminate these pests it is important for our ‘pest detectives’ to determine where exactly they are coming from; and not only eliminate the source, but also the access points that are allowing them entry. This is something that Chris excels at. He takes pride in his work, and the fact that he loves his job is clearly evident, too.

When asked what his favorite pest is, he simply answered, “Ants!” Not a surprising answer considering that they exemplify leadership, diligence, and a hard work ethic that Chris also demonstrates each and every day. Ants don’t need to be told twice how to work hard – they just work hard naturally. They are never deterred and finish what they set out to do. These are qualities that Chris also possesses.

Chris does not always have his detective hat on; in fact, he is a dedicated husband and father of two beautiful daughters. He said that he is ‘quite proud’ of his wife and daughters. No wonder! With the strength of character that Chris demonstrates each day there is no doubt that his lovely wife and daughters share those values, too.

Here at Active Pest Control we strive to offer excellent service and top-of-the-line technology and products to ensure you have a successful pest control solution. A large part of our commitment to excellence is evident through our commitment to hire men and women with integrity, honesty, and honor. Chris is a great example of the quality pest detectives that help to make Active Pest Control the go-to pest control company.
