Barry Pitkoff

Northeast District Sales and Technical Manager
With a background that spans pest control, broadcast production and music, Barry’s approach to pest management balances both the science and art of managing pests.

This view of pest control expands beyond product applications. Barry has worked with numerous clients throughout his district to develop integrated solutions that address sanitation and exclusion while understanding the behavior and biology of each commensal rodent. Barry further explores his artistic side outside of work. Playing the guitar since he was 12 years old, he considers it a terrific way to unwind. Travel is another favorite activity for Barry, who loves experiencing new places with his wife and son. “In the Know” Pro Tip “Excellent rodent control is the result of merging science, the art of inspection, biology and behavior, and control techniques. Overall, every new pest challenge is an opportunity to draw from your cumulative experience to elicit the best strategy and the best product solution.”
