Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

unfold fold
We try to keep our pricing simple. So the customer does not get asked to pay for more then they are expecting. We are not salesmen we are serviceman. We also offer discounts to senior citizens and veterans. We also will offer discounted prices on a case by case basis for those who may be having financial problems and can’t afford service when we fell the pest is a health or safety concern.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

unfold fold
Mid Central Pest Control provides our employees with in house training. But we also receive training online and in seminars. Always important to keep up to date on new products and new information about the pests we deal with. The worked if pest control is constantly changing.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

unfold fold
Mid Central Pest Control was started by my our Dad, Peter Schopen Sr. All of his kids began working in high school. Both Eric and Drake now run Mid Central. Have been working for company since the mid 90’s.

What types of customers have you worked with?

unfold fold
We have been in business since 1974. So over almost 50 years we have worked with just about all customers. We service most residential pests including rodent’s, wasp and bees, crawling insects. We specialize in termite control. Lost small companies in this area do not do termite work. So we get a lot of referrals in this area

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

unfold fold
Mid Central Pest Control specializes in Termite control. We really enjoy the evaluation of a structure and how the termites are getting in and designing treatment plan. There are so many different structures. It’s like putting a puzzle together. We also specialize in Rat control as well. Just like termite work, knowledge of how a home is built is so important. Being able to look at a structure and deconstruct the home in your mind and find those possible hidden entry points is a challenge and makes this job fun and interesting. It’s very satisfying to find the answers and resolve a problem.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

unfold fold
You don’t have to sign a contract. Most pest can be eliminated within 1-3 applications. From there if you want preventative service you can sign up for program. If you company provides quality work, then they will keep you as a customer. Also ask a lot of questions about guaranteed work. What exactly does that guarantee provide to you, your money back? Unlimited call backs? What if you sign a contract and get a guaranteed for 6 or 12 months but the problem never actually goes away. Ask lots of questions.
