In this bold and empowering episode of the Pestrogen Podcast, your favorite hosts Jenny and Kandyce tackle the all-too-familiar phrase: “You’re too pretty for pest control.” With humor, heart, and a heavy dose of real talk, they dive into stories from women and men in the industry who’ve faced dismissive comments, creepy clients, and outdated stereotypes — all because of how they look, how old they are, or because they simply don’t “fit” the mold. Jenny and Kandyce share outrageous customer encounters, a jaw-dropping story about a possum in a crawlspace, and a deeply honest discussion about being underestimated and sexualized on the job. Plus, listener submissions from fellow pest pros bring even more laughs, gasps, and solidarity to the table. This episode is a reminder that competence doesn't come with a dress code, and nobody is “too pretty,” “too young,” or “too anything” to do dirty work with pride. If you’ve ever been underestimated, this one’s for you. 🐀🪳 Trigger warning for sexism, creepy clients, and dead possums. 🎧 Tune in, grab your tumbler, and get ready to laugh, rage, and relate with the Pestrogen crew.
