Pest Control Ladder - Is This Safe?
Posted by Andrew Greess on Jun 28, 2012
Pest control ladder was carelessly tossed into truck on top of pest control equipment. The pest control sprayer was just one good bump in the road away from an expensive problem.
Some Suggestions:
1. Train pest control (or weed) technicians to do a quick check of their load before driving off. Ensure equipment is secure to protect equipment, driver, other drivers.
2. In this case, the company should invest in a ladder rack to properly secure the ladder and protect equipment.
3. Consider a telescoping ladder. This is a compact cost effective solution. These pest control ladders fits in the truck and the company doesnt have to buy a ladder rack.
