WELCOME BACK TO "LIVING
808."
SINCE WE'RE SPENDING SO MUCH
TIME AT HOME THESE DAYS, IT'S
PRIME TIME TO TAKE CARE OF ANY
PEST PROBLEMS AND OAHU'S ONLY
REGISTERED FUMIGATION SERVICES
COMPANY IS HELPING OUT LOCAL
KUPUNA.
I'M JOINED NOW BY VITALPREP
OWNER VINETTA LLOYD-HUGHES.
THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
I REALLY APPRECIATE BEING HERE.
TELL ME A LITTLE BIT MORE
ABOUT FUMIGATION PREP.
ABSOLUTELY.
THERE'S A BUNCH OF REGULATIONS
BY THE GAS COMPANY, THE COMPANY
THAT PRODUCES THE GAS, BY THE
STATE OF HAWAI'I AND BY YOUR
PEST CONTROL COMPANIES, THE
COMPANIES THAT COME OUT AND
ACTUALLY DO THE FUME INDICATION
OBLIGATIONS.
WHAT WE'VE DONE IS PUT TOGETHER
A SUITE OF SERVICES THAT TAKES
ALL OF THOSE DIFFERENT ASPECTS
OF FUMIGATION PREP AND PUT THEM
UNDER ONE ROOF.
SO IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT CAN
BE STRESSFUL FOR HOMEOWNERS WHO
HAVE TO PREPARE FOR THIS,
ESPECIALLY FOR SENIORS.
WHAT KIND OF EXPERTISE IS
REQUIRED DO EVERYTHING THAT YOUR
TEAM DOES?
WELL, LET'S SEE, TO START YOU
HAVE TO HAVE A REALLY GOOD
UNDERSTANDING OF THE LAW.
SO HERE IN HAWAI'I THERE'S A
THING CALLED THE LABEL OF THE
LAW.
COMPANY.
BASICALLY THERE'S A LOT OF
INFORMATION IN THAT LABEL THAT
HAPPEN TO MAKE IT A LEGAL
FUMIGATION AND A SUCCESSFUL
FUMIGATION.
SO ONE JUST KNOWING ALL THOSE
THINGS IS REALLY IMPORTANT, TWO
HAVING REALLY GOOD RELATIONSHIPS
WITH THE COMPANIES THAT DO THIS,
THEY TRUST YOU TO COME IN AND
TAKE CARE OF THEIR CLIENTS.
THREE, THERE'S CONTINUING
EDUCATION.
JUST TO MAKE SURE WE'RE BEING
CORRECT IN EVERYTHING WE DO AND
SECONDLY EXPEDIENT IN OUR
EXECUTION OF THE PROCESS.
CAN YOU GIVE US AN IDEA OF
THE RANGE OF CUSTOMERS WHO ARE
CALLING ON VITALPREP FOR THESE
SERVICES.
WE START WITH THE KUPUNA.
AS IT TURNS OUT, THEY TURN OUT
TO BE OUR SWEET SPOT.
FORMING THE COMPANY AND FIGURING
IT ALL OUT, WE KNEW IT WOULD BE
REALLY HELPFUL TO SENIORS BUT
IT'S BEEN A REMARKABLE,
REMARKABLE SITUATION.
THEY CALL US.
I'VE HAD PEOPLE COME TO TEARS
LIKE WE NEEDED TO DO THIS FOR SO
LONG AND HAD NOBODY TO HELP US.
WE'VE HAD TEARS A LOT.
ANY HOMEOWNER WHO HAS A HOME,
WHO HAS TERMITES AND DOES NOT
WANT TO DO THAT WORK, ANYONE IN
REAL ESTATE, WE CAN COME IN AND
GET THAT CLOSING ACCELERATED BY
LETTING US DO ALL OF THE WORK
AND THEN OUR REAL ESTATE AGENTS
PAY US AT ESCROW.
EVERYTHING THAT IT HANDLED.
PROPERLY BAGGING THE FOG,
ANYTHING GOING IN THE MOUTH, ANY
INVESTABLES, WRAPPED, DOUBLE
BAGGED AND SEALED OFF THE PROPER
WAY.
ALL THESE APPLIANCES SHOULD BE
OPENED UP SO GAS DOESN'T GET
TRAPPED.
CLEARING OUT THINGS THAT ARE IN
DAMAGE.
IF YOU HAVE YOUR FAVORITE PLANT,
WE WILL REMOVE THEM FROM THE
HOUSE FOR YOU, AND OUTSIDE IT'S
A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF WORK.
SO THEY HAVE TO DROP A TENT OVER
YOUR WHOLE PROPERTY AND IT HAS
TO HAVE A CLEAR BLUSH DROP.
THE THINGS THAT CAN GET -- FLUSH
DROP.
THE THINGS THAT CAN GET IN THE
WAY ARE DECKS, GUTTERS.
WE DISCONNECT AND WE CONSERVE
PLANTS.
WE PULL BACK TREES.
WE WRAP PLANTS THAT CAN'T BE
MOVED BUT WANT TO BE SAVED.
THE BONUSES ARE WE WILL COME
BACK AND CLEAN YOUR HOUSE AFTER
FUMIGATION BECAUSE THERE'S OFTEN
DECEASED LITTLE PESTS HANGING
OUT IN YOUR HOUSE.
SO WE HAVE A TEAM THAT WILL COME
AND CLEAN YOUR HOUSE.
OTHER TEAMS WILL RESTORE YOUR
HOME.
THAT'S THE TEAM THAT PUTS
EVERYTHING BACK LIKE WE FOUND
IT, EVERYTHING BACK IN THE
FRIDGE.
IN YOUR FEESER, CABINETS,
DRAWERS, BRING ALL THE PLANTS
BACK AND EVERYTHING JUST LIKE IT
WAS BUT BETTER.
ANOTHER THING WE OFFER WHICH IS
OUR NEW THING FOR 2020 IT'S
OVERNIGHT SECURITY.
SOMETIMES HOMES GET BROKEN INTO
WHEN THEY ARE BEING FUMIGATED.
IT SOUNDS CRAZY BUT PEOPLE DO
IT.
SO WE HAVE AN OVERNIGHT TEAM.
THEY ARE BONDED AND THEY ARE
TRAINED AND THEY ARE
PROFESSIONAL.
THEY'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR A
LOT OF YEARS AND THEY WORK WITH
US TO SECURE THOSE PROPERTIES.
SOUNDS LIKE YOU COVER IT ALL.
HOW CAN PEOPLE CONTACT YOU?

WEBSITE.
