Pestmaster Brand President and Franchisee Named to NPMA Diversity and Wildlife Committees

RENO, Nev. — Kieran Scott, brand president of Pestmaster, and Justin Kendall, Pestmaster franchise owner in Virginia, were recently named to the Diversity Council and Wildlife Committee respectively within the National Pest Management Association.

The NPMA Diversity Council educates members about the benefits of diversity within the industry, provides tools for members to increase diversity within their organizations, promotes NPMA membership to minority owned pest control operations; and collaborates with other NPMA Committees with special issues and education.

“Diversity has always been important to me, and the opportunity to bring my passion for it into the pest control space is so exciting. There’s a lot of homogeneity in the industry, and increasing our diversity will only make us stronger,” said Scott. “I’ll be a part of key discussions about how we can move the industry forward and encourage diversity for business owners, which is extremely gratifying.”

Kendall has been a Pestmaster franchisee for years and recently acquired a wildlife business as an add-on, making him a perfect addition to the Wildlife Committee. The Wildlife Committee addresses the specialty of wildlife management, which includes any animal not covered by the traditional pest control license.

“It’s an honor to be named to the Wildlife Committee,” said Kendall. “I am excited to put my expertise to use and help in any way I can to advance the pest control industry and provide our customers with the best in class service.”
