Service Champions technician Carlo keeps chicken wire on hand when he
goes to a job.
“We work in all kinds of places in houses – attics, openings for pipes
near the side of houses, underneath houses – all over,” Carlo said. “And
sometimes those places have little openings or holes that allows critters in.”
Such was the case at a client’s home in Irvine when Carlo was on a
service call.
“He had an opening in the side of their home where piping from the
HVAC system was going in,” Carlo explained. “The client had come concerns
because he saw some wiring popping out and thought maybe squirrels or something
were entering the home that way and disturbing the wires.”
Carlo went up and checked the attic in case the critters had been
crawling up through the hole to that space. Luckily there wasn’t any evidence
of that.
Still, Carlo offered to put some chicken wire in place to make sure no
animals were trespassing inside.
The homeowner was happy for the offer, but surprised Carlo had chicken
wire at the ready.
“Oh sure, I keep chicken wire with me,” Carlo said. “It comes in handy.
I’ve used it before – I recently had someone I blocked a hole for where birds
had been nesting in their attic.”
The client was relieved to have the access point blocked and was thankful
that Carlo was so handy with chicken wire.
Nice job Carlo! That’s another Good Deed For Free!
