πŸŽ‰ Happy 3rd Birthday to Bug Doctor! πŸŽ‰

Three years ago today, I took a leap of faith and started Bug Doctor. My very first invoice was actually in Otorohanga, and I never imagined where this journey would lead.

After spending two years working for a large pest control company, I saw how much overheads go into running a big business.

That's one of the reasons I started Bug Doctor. By keeping my business lean, with lower overheads and no layers of high management salary, I'm able to keep my prices as fair and affordable as possible without compromising on quality.

I also know pest control can be expensive, so I offer flexible payment plans to help make it more affordable for customers.

πŸ“ˆ **The journey so far:
β€’ Year 1– Built Bug Doctor from the ground up.
β€’ Year 2 – Grew by 121%.
β€’ Year 3 – Grew by another 33%.
β€’ This financial year – Just over 3 months in and already on track for another record year.

Based on the current pace, we're projecting another year of growth, and there's still more than three quarters of the financial year to go!

Looking back at how far Bug Doctor has come in just three years is something I'm incredibly proud of, and none of it would have been possible without the support of so many people.

A special thank you to Cheryl for all of the business ideas and advice when I was setting up Bug Doctor, Stu for all of the behind-the-scenes graphic design work, and Nicole for helping streamline my website. Your support has made a huge difference.

And finally, thank you to every customer who has trusted me with your pest control, recommended me to family and friends, and left a review. Every job, every referral, and every review has helped Bug Doctor grow into what it is today.

Here's to the next chapterβ€”and to continuing to provide honest, affordable pest control for homes and businesses across Wellington and beyond. πŸœπŸ€πŸ’šπŸŽ‚

🚨 Temporary Travel Charge Update 🚨

Hi everyone,

Over the past 6 weeks, the price of diesel has doubled, which unfortunately means I need to temporarily increase the travel charge for my services. This adjustment will remain in place until diesel drops back below $2 per litre.

For transparency, all invoices will include a line clearly stating this travel charge increase.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support!
