False Widow Spider Misery of Tenant Resolved Through Heat Treatment

Kent, United Kingdom – June 7, 2022

Russel Davies has spent the last 15 months of his life living with false widow spiders in his apartment. Each day and night, the poor man has fallen victim to hundreds of bites all over his body, severely disrupting his mental and physical health. Multiple attempts were made to remove the spiders, but none were successful. However, thanks to a complimentary heat treatment by local pest control service – Pestforce – Russel can now finally live in peace with the spider problem resolved! 

‘Help Others Not as Fortunate as Ourselves’

Russel’s spider nightmare gained a lot of press coverage and even made BBC news. As a result, news outlets were reaching out to experts on false widow spiders for more information on the pests and what can be done to remove them from a home. This attracted the attention of Pestforce as local representatives were interviewed on radio shows to talk about the situation. 

Following this, Phil Shaw (Technical Director for Pestforce) was given an opportunity to speak directly to Russel. It sparked an idea in his head that aligned with one of the core values of Pestforce – to Help Others Not as Fortunate as Ourselves. 

Consequently, the Pestforce team kicked things into action and teamed up with Thermokil – an independent contractor that often works with the Pestforce team on specialist jobs like this. The companies used heat treatment to remove all life cycle stages of the pest, effectively killing the false widow spiders without the use of harsh chemicals. It is the safest and most efficient way of dealing with insects like false widow spiders. 

For Russel, this means he can finally live in peace without worrying about being eaten alive every single night. 

Spreading Positivity Throughout The Community

The heat treatment service was provided by Pestforce and Themorkil completely free of charge. It enabled Russel to actually get professional pest control services, which he was unable to afford for the last 15 months. 

The Managing Director of Pestforce, Sean Taylor, noted that “it is a nice feeling to be able to help Russell and, in addition, provides a great feel-good feeling in our business and the wider public. I’d say that is a great investment for the right reasons, and we will consider offering this type of thing in the future. To be honest I would rather invest in these initiatives, help others and get some good PR than invest in some corporate advertising initiative. And we will probably get a better return.”

It’s one of the latest examples of Pestforce spreading positivity throughout local communities. The company has donated to many charities in the past and always looks to give back to those in need. Thanks to the good honest work from the team, Russel no longer has to live with false widow spiders on his mind.
