There's a big presence of folks from Colorado so you you feel right at home.

Any experienced pest co. can verify the presence of them if you can't.

It is even funnier when you sit back and realize your "trusted advisors" do not even know you exist...... sometimes.Thank you David, actually, you have not been very active and I have been aware of your presence and contributions, all pretty well thought out with mature judgment.

Welcome to BP @Jennifer ConnollyThis is a great place to learn and meet people.Strong presence for MA and FL here so either way you should be able to get some good local contacts on here.Definitely hit the Black Diamond meeting if you are in Worcester that day anyway.

There are several other groups as well, mostly networking, some with an education presence.
