John Mercer

John is the co-founder and Lead Technician at The Wild Pest. Fifteen years in the Metro Vancouver pest and wildlife trade — starting at a national chain in 2010, working his way through every service category from residential bed bugs to commercial food-processor accounts, before co-founding The Wild Pest in 2015 to do the work properly.

John personally runs every commercial inspection, every wildlife exclusion over $3,000, and writes every Field Guide article on this site. He's the technical authority behind The Wild Pest's protocols. Most of the opinions you read in our public content are his, tested across thousands of inspections and treatments.
