The Face of Termite Control

April Ernest

When April Ernest joined the urban pest management team at Corteva Agriscience in 2021, she quickly realized that termite control was serious business for pest control owners willing to take on the liability to give homeowners peace of mind.

With a trusted and research-backed product like the Sentricon® system, Ernest quickly realized the team’s passion for helping pest management professionals (PMPs) grow their businesses.

“We hear it all the time from our customers: ‘Sentricon just works,’” Ernest said. “That efficacy positively impacts their business by reducing callbacks and liability.”

While termite control innovations remain at the forefront of ongoing research, Ernest said the team’s passion for helping PMPs grow their businesses is contagious.

“It’s incredible to see what the impact a 1 percent increase in your customer retention rate can have on a business, and our team is developing tools and strategies to help the industry leverage this information,” Ernest said.
