KINGMAN, Ind. – Ross Miller, owner of Pro Pest Control, Kingman, Ind., was announced as the lucky winner of a cicada bobblehead from PCT. The giveaway was to celebrate last summer’s cicada dual brood emergence.
Pro Pest Control serves a six-county region in west central Indiana, and Miller witnessed several large cicada emergences last summer, which he described as an interesting and overwhelming experience.
“The sheer volume of cicadas during the brood emergence was awe-striking,” he said. “It’s almost like a once-in-a-generation event.”
Miller has been involved in the pest control industry for more than 20 years and started Pro Pest Control two and a half years ago. He specializes in property management and residential services.
"I’ve always enjoyed the problem-solving aspect of pest control — it’s like solving puzzles for a living," he said.
PCT’s Brad Harbison said it was bittersweet to send out the cicada bobblehead, but he is happy that the “high-quality collectible” has found a good home!
