Brad

PCHD Overlord

Brad Harvey fell into the pest control world in 1992 because he and his wife ran out of diapers for their daughter. Not being attractive enough to street-walk and since OnlyFans had not yet been invented, his only alternative to the daily washing of soiled scraps of burlap was to take a job offered to him by his future mentor.
In just a year, Brad fell in love with the industry and has been there ever since. In his career which spans three decades, he developed a lifestyle formula he calls ‘Functional Mediocrity,’ the cornerstone of which is a darkly base sense of humor.
This technique has been his go-to as a Technician, Sales, Administrative, and Managerial member of the pest control industry.
In January 2020, Brad, along with Josh Talbert, conceived the idea of a social media group where members of the pest control family could come together and share memes. Forty-eight hours later, ‘Pest Control Meme Depot’ was born.
Over the course of a few short months, the group evolved into something more. As the ranks of members grew, the need for somewhere to not just post memes but to share some industry-specific laughs, pick up advice and hacks, vent, joke, and just be there for one another was becoming apparent, so the group became known as ‘Pest Control Humor Depot.’ It was at that time as well that PCHD became a private group exclusively for members of the pest control industry and is now the fastest growing private pest control group in social media.
Brad’s personal life includes family, gardening, involvement in animal rescue, reading, music, and b… Read More

Jack

Resident asshat podcast creator

Jack started his career in pest control before Termidor existed. His first foray into the bug killing world was as a termite tech. With a background in construction inspection, he took to termite work well.
Jack went from termite work to to being a universal tech for one company… and then a service manager for “The Big Green T”. Then he got a job with a pesticide distribution warehouse for a while… until he got robbed in broad daylight and decided “fuck this shit” and went to be a “universal tech” for another company.
Eventually becoming a branch manager for a “Donnie and Marie” pest control company, Jack fought the religious pest system and wound up at the very end of his career as a commercial tech.
After 26 years, he retired from pest control to focus his energies on Tales from the Crawlspace, and being a retired bum.
Jack enjoys his solitude in a 100 year old Sears and Roebuck kit house in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia.

YOUR ILLUSTRIOUS HOSTS! JACK AND BRAD!
