The applicator is responsible for the material applied..... The owner of the company didn't pull the trigger on the gun. You did!!! And by reading your reply, 75% of the companies you worked for did the right thing. Further more.... Why in the hell would you discredit the industry that feeds you?!?!? You want people to be educated about the pest control industry and you do that by writing this trash??? Get out of the industry if you hate it so.... Leave the industry if you feel like the companies you have worked and currently work for cheat people and pray on them. There are hundreds of unemployed men and women out there with exceeded morals and values, who would be willing to take responsibility for themselves as the applicator. Not be a toddler who says "he/she made me do it". Bottom line. I disagree with you and your article. You are fueling and perpetuating the uneducated to dislike us more. Remember, you collect a paycheck from those uneducated.
