Technician
Priya Desai
Residential Technician — South Delta, Richmond, Surrey
“A good pest control visit is half technical and half translation — making sure the customer actually understands what I'm doing and why.”
Priya has been with The Wild Pest since 2023 and covers South Delta, Richmond, Tsawwassen, and South Surrey residential service. Her background is biology (BSc, UBC 2018) and she spent three years as a field biologist on Pacific Northwest rodent ecology research before transitioning into applied pest management.
Customers appreciate that she speaks English, Punjabi, and conversational Hindi — which matters in Richmond and Surrey where a meaningful share of our customer base has English as a second language.
