From the Ground Up: Norman's Journey in Pest Control

Meet Norman, our senior pest control specialist with over 30 years of unwavering commitment to the field. His journey into pest management began in the mid-90s during his National Service, where he was assigned to cleaning and security duties at various production sites. It was there he caught his first glimpse of how environmental conditions, such as moisture and poor sanitation, could attract pests—and how proper control could make a difference.
In 1996, Norman took a leap into pest control, joining Larcon Pest Control, a company that held contracts with the National Environment Agency (NEA). After Larcon ceased operations in 1997, Norman became part of the first batch of professionals to establish Pest Xpress, one of the early pioneers in modern pest management in Singapore.
By 1998, he had completed all NEA-accredited training courses, earning his full pest control license by 2000. His first major assignment? A large-scale treatment at Golden Landmark hotel, where he received his first project payout of $850—a humble but meaningful start that paved the way for decades of experience.

Built on Experience, Backed by Integrity

From scanning equipment in the “old school” days to today’s integrated pest management tools, Norman has seen the industry evolve. But what hasn’t changed is his hands-on, earnest approach—always inspecting every corner, understanding the site’s condition, and tailoring solutions based on humidity, structural vulnerabilities, and pest behavior.
He’s dealt with:
  • Termites thriving in damp structures and requiring deep soil treatments and precise concrete drilling
  • Ground slug invasions in moisture-heavy zones, calling for targeted surface treatments
  • Environmental factors like rainfall and ventilation affecting long-term maintenance strategies
Through the years, Norman has developed a deep knowledge of chemical solutions—some with lifespans of up to five years—and uses only NEA-approved products. His knowledge of landtracks and pest movement patterns allows him to detect infestations early and prevent them from spreading.
