This is a shame. The whole point of the eco friendly movement is not to spray poisons around kids. Safety first. NY Pest Pro

Just the tip of the iceburg. This group is running afoul in most states at any given time. Proceed with caution.

this company was just awarded a large multi year spraying contract with the Norfolk Southern that will take them into many states. What are they thinking? I sure they will get somemore great press out of this bunch.

I also worked for this company and it does not surprise me at all either that this happened. This is what Natur Chem has a reputation of doing, ANYTHING to make a penny no matter what the consequenses are. I highly reccomend that no one use this company for that would be supporting this kind of behavior. I know there are better companies out there doing the same services, because I now work for one that is leaps and bounds more professional than Natur Chem. This is not the first time this type of thing has happened. Do a little research and you will find out for yourself.

As an ex Orkin employee I am disgusted in the fact that the pest control industry thinks that they can hire an employee off the streets with no prior experience and train them for a week or two, give them a truck with a tank full of toxic chemicals and expect them to be safe. Now I head a non-profit (Virginia Toxic Coalition) in the fight to keep our future healthy. I challenged Orkin to turn there red diamond to green.

As a parent of one of the children sprayed, I can tell you that several of these children were seriously harmed. It is now almost Thanksgiving and children sre still not ‘healed’. Some have what is expected to be permanent lung and eye damage and are still recieving steroid & breathing treatments. I cannot believe there has not been more of an out cry regarding this incident including locally!

As a former employee of this company i have to say that it does not suprise me at all to hear about the carelessness used in the spraying of these chemicals.It has been my opinion of the people that are running this company are nothing more than a bunch of bullies,that have no business spraying water on their lawns,more or less hazardous,and yes,they are hazardous chemicals.I hope that for the sake of this country,and the sake of the environment,that these people are shut down for good.
