There91裸聊视频檚 a well-documented business rule that suggests you should never hire your friends as employees.

Your pets? That91裸聊视频檚 another story.

Courtenay entrepreneur Cameron Ezzy has started his own pest control business, with some rather quacky employees: his pet ducks.

Slugs n91裸聊视频� Bugs For Lunch is a new pest control business in the Comox Valley, and the employees have quite an appetite for their work.

Ezzy said the transition from duck owner to business owner came about naturally, and nearly instantly.

91裸聊视频淢y landlady said I could get ducks so I got the ducks,91裸聊视频� he explained. 91裸聊视频淚 knew there was a slug problem in the area that I lived, and I my landlady was the one who said 91裸聊视频榶ou know, ducks are really good at eating slugs91裸聊视频� and that was it. So I didn91裸聊视频檛 buy the ducks specifically for the business, but once I saw this, the business idea came to me immediately.91裸聊视频�

Ezzy brings the ducks to a residence, and from there, his fine-feathered employees do the rest.

He currently has four employees - Rosie, Aretha Franklin, Willow, and Jaco the lone drake (named after legendary bassist Jaco Pastorius), - and is hopeful some offspring will add to his empire in time.

91裸聊视频淚 am looking to build my flock up to a dozen,91裸聊视频� he said. 91裸聊视频淩osie 91裸聊视频� who is named after my mom 91裸聊视频� has been laying eggs and I haven91裸聊视频檛 been touching them, so I am hoping she is going to sit on those eggs very shortly, and hatch them.91裸聊视频�

Ezzy said although he has had his ducks for nearly a year, he91裸聊视频檚 still learning the ins and outs of being a 91裸聊视频渄uck master.91裸聊视频�

91裸聊视频淚 am a first-time duck owner, so I am learning as I go. I am not an authority on the industry. But I do know one thing; this makes people smile, and that the most satisfying thing,91裸聊视频� he said. 91裸聊视频淭he environmental part of it - pest control without chemicals - is really good, but the best part of it is how you feel and how you smile by just watching the ducks. It91裸聊视频檚 all about them.

91裸聊视频淭his is my way of doing an environmentally friendly job, giving people a reason to smile, and hopefully teaching kids that there are alternatives.91裸聊视频�
