Truly Nolen Atlanta

Some people count birthdays.
I count the number of times I've stood up and immediately wondered why I stood up.
The bugs aren't doing much better.
The roach has a walker. The ant tells the same story every day. The spider spends more time knitting than web-building.
Meanwhile, I'm over here making noises every time I get out of a chair... but I can still spot the signs of a pest problem from a mile away.
Getting older may slow us down a little.
Experience just makes us harder to fool.
What's your first official "Yep... I'm getting old" moment? 😂👇

Best way to start your morning in Canton!

⚽🐞 A customer suggested we name expansion soccer clubs after bugs.
So naturally, I took my decades of highly questionable pest expertise straight to the Premier League Expansion Club Naming Committee.
Somehow they let me finish the presentation.
Highlights included: 🐞 London Ladybugs FC — They look harmless... until they eat the competition. 🐜 Rio Fire Ants FC — One touch on the ball and suddenly there are 10 more. 🪲 Berlin Beetles FC — Built like tanks. 🕷 Sydney Huntsmen FC — Somehow always in your house.
The scary part? A few of them actually liked the ideas.
Now it's your turn...
👇 What city and bug would YOU turn into a soccer club?
Bonus points if the mascot makes people slightly uncomfortable.


Thanks to Cedric Mitchell for the suggestion though I did decide to stray a bit from the original suggestion and go with football instead of football 😁

Look at that face

A baby raccoon that decided to slide down a chimney at 12am.

⚽ WORLD CUP UPDATE ⚽
The roaches have officially been eliminated from the tournament.
Final score: 🟡 Truly Nolen FC: 17 🪳 Roach United: 0
The roaches have filed complaints with the referee, demanded a recount, and blamed the turf conditions. Unfortunately for them, none of that changes the scoreboard.
Much like the World Cup, everybody shows up with big dreams.
Unlike the World Cup, our season ends with the pests going home early. 😎

Vacation's over. The bugs are already disappointed. 😎
Let's try something different.
Twice a week, I'm turning the page over to you. Give me a topic in the comments and I'll find a way to make it bug related.
Fishing? Bugs. Football? Bugs. Pizza? Bugs. Retirement planning? Somehow... bugs.
The weirder the suggestion, the better.
Drop your ideas below and let's see what you've got. 👇
Fair warning: I've been doing this a long time. I can make just about anything bug related. 😏

Cartoon Ryan is officially entering vacation mode. 🏖️😎

No crawlspaces.
No German roaches.
No “Hey, while you’re here…” projects.

Just sunshine, family time, questionable buffet decisions, and pretending I don’t immediately notice ants at restaurants.😂
Now, if I notice German roaches...🤨

We’ll be back June 10th.
Until then, behave yourselves… and tell the bugs not to get any ideas. 😂

Our other company, Wild Trappers, decided to get in on the fun, too. Can't wait to see what kind of hijinks Cartoon Trapper Dave gets into😂

Call us with your bat issues. 🦇

German roaches would absolutely be the employees replying to emails at 2:13am like:
“Circling back on this…” 😭

No days off.
No personal space.
No respect for boundaries.
Honestly… HR would never survive them.

Good news is:
Your house doesn’t have to either. 👊

Buying a new home comes with a LOT of moving parts.

Mortgage.
Boxes.
Utilities.
Closing dates.
Furniture.
Paint colors.
Stress eating takeout on the living room floor. 😂

And somewhere in the middle of all that…

“Oh yeah… pest control.”

Truth is, getting your home protected early saves a lot of headaches later. Especially here in Georgia where bugs think they’re on the deed too.

Congrats to everybody starting a new chapter in a new home this season. 👊🏡
