Eagle Pest Elimination

Hurtling down I-66 one afternoon last week in a made dash to escape the confines of Arlington, Virginia, I came upon a van with the following decal emblazoned on the back:

Eagle Pest Elimination

My first reaction was, "What? They eliminate pesky, troublesome eagles?" I mmediately realized that that was nonsense, and soon determined that it was merely a traditional pest services company with an unusual name. Their Web site is very informative, and is graced with an animated graphic that all eaglephiles out there will appreciate. It also includes a link to Pest World for Kids (courtesy of the National Pest Management Association), a site that features cool music, interactive animated learning games, and amazing pest facts. Did you know, for example, that "A cockroach can live for up to one week without its head." I wonder how many sadistic lab assistants it took to figure that one out? Pest World for Kids is great fun for kids of all ages.
