Greg started in the pest
control business in 1980 when he was
just 17 years old and only two years
later was on the board of PCA. His
business was based mostly around
providing pest control to specific areas
like restaurants and other catering
based establishments.
His company grew rapidly
and by the mid 1980's he had eight
employees. This was brought to a
sudden standstill with the share market
crash when Greg was left with decisions
to make about the future of the
business.
Greg consolidated the business, scaled
back his operations and set about
re-establishing his future. Today,
Greg's company Antibug, with three
operators including himself, runs a
niche market operation supplying highly
specialised pest control strategies to
councils, shopping centres and sections
of the building industry.
In
addition to his work as a specialist
pest manager, he has another life
centered on swimming and he spends many
hours a week as an assistant coach at
the pool side. He has also worked
at coaching in athletics and one of his
career highlights was training with
Olympic Gold medal winner Lindford
Christie.
