Clint Richardson with No More Critters
No More Critters is a specialized pest control company. They keep scorpions, roaches, spiders, and other general pests out of their clients homes by sealing them out of a home they have the privilege to work on. No More Critters is in business to protect families in their home from getting stung, especially children. They do not use pesticides or require maintenances to maintain success.
They accomplish this by first coming to your home and performing an inspection and hear from the customer where scorpions or other pests are getting into the home. They charge by the linear foot, so a measuring wheel is taken around the entire foundation to figure out an exact quote that will not change during the entire buying process.
Once the customer decides to have a home seal done they come back on a different day and seal the home. Sealing the home takes a caulking that they use and trust, sealing the entire foundation that can be full of gaps and spaces from construction imperfections.
No More Critters will also seal the eves of the roof up to the first floor to prevent scorpions from getting into the attic and eventually a customer’s living space. They will come inside and check the plumbing underneath the sinks in the bathrooms and kitchen to make sure there are no oversized holes that pests can come in from the wall voids. Finally, a 3-year limited warranty is issued to each customer that goes against the workmanship of the seal.
Clint Richardson had been in the pest control business 7+ years prior to owning No More Critters. While collecting experience in pest control and learning about all different kinds of pests and pest behavior, he realized that home sealing is an extremely effective service. He used it several times to make sure he satisfied his monthly, bi-monthly, and quarterly customers.
One day, as he arrived to a brand new customer’s home who had just arrived in Arizona, he was greeted outside by the entire family, which was quite unusual. When they arrived to show the children their new home, their little 2 year old boy jumped out of the car without shoes and attempted to run up the stairs to see his new room. He didn’t make it but a few steps, as he was stung by a scorpion right then and there. The boy went into convulsions and a hospital trip was needed. He was okay after treatment.
After telling him what happened, and why they called for pest control, they asked him what other options there were besides treating the home with pesticides. Clint told them he could seal the home and educated them on what that meant. There was no hesitation in their agreement to get the home sealed. They were customers for a long time after, and they never saw another scorpion in the home.
Clint’s mission is to make sure that this doesn’t happen to any more children under his company’s care. This is why he started No More Critters and why he only installs home seals.
