Celebrating Women in Pest Control

As International Women’s Day unfolds, and frankly on every other day, Western takes pride in honoring the remarkable women who not only keep the company running but also ensure the safety of our customers from pests. After all, one of the top priorities at Western is supporting and encouraging its people.

When you work for a company like Western that places putting people first as one of their main values, it shows. At Western, our team members are diverse and dynamic – our entomologist, controller, entire marketing department, director of sales, a significant number of both residential and commercial technicians, and several customer service representatives are all remarkable women. It’s no surprise that at Western, we proudly celebrate the invaluable contributions of women in every facet of our industry – they are the driving force that keeps our operation running seamlessly!

Western is not merely content with celebrating; we’re actively encouraging more women to choose pest control as their industry of choice. The employment of pest control workers is projected to grow by 3% from 2022 to 2032. It may not sound like a lot, but that small number proves that pest control is a stable, solid employment opportunity with strong chances for career advancement. The job itself is more about public safety than about pests – it’s about keeping people safe and healthy. Safety is just one more of the values Western makes a top priority. Keeping people happy and safe are two of their main goals as a company. And remember, “people” includes employees, customers, friends, and neighbors in the communities where they live and work.
