Who is Clement C. Mouse?

Who is Clement C. Mouse?

Posted in [Misc] By Venus Pest

If you don’t remember the story of Clement C. Mouse, allow me to reahash it for you.

One dreary morning in Fall 2009, a shrill scream could be heard throughout a quiet neighborhood in College Station, TX.  It was the scream of a frightened woman as she opened her shower curtain to find a live killer mouse staring back at her from inside her tub!  A quick call to Venus Pest Company and Dr. Scott was out there with his rubber boots and haz-mat suit ready for the no-good scoundrel.

Clement C. Mouse at home with Venus Pest CompanyOk, it wasn’t really a killer mouse, it was more cute than anything, but it still scared her and needed to be dealt with!  It didn’t really require a haz-mat suit either for the record.  Nevertheless, even though the little fella scared her half to death, she made us promise not to kill him.  Why would you call a pest control company and ask them not to kill the pest?  Well, it made us scratch our head too, but we aim to please.  So, one mouse rescue later and Venus Pest Company now had a pet mouse.

We held a contest to name our new friend on myBCS.com and received a ton of hilarious entries for naming.  See the results and some of the other names from our mouse naming contest that ran on myBCS.com.  The winner was Clement C. Mouse for the obvious double entendre since we spared his life on what would have normally been his execution day.  A very gloomy scenario for most rodents indeed, but not this guy, not that day!

So we thought we’d share updated pictures.  Clement C. has probably tripled in size since we brought him back to the office and seems very Clement C. Mouse loves his home at Venus Pest Companycomfortable.  He loves time in his play ball so he can roll around the office, although he seems to increase his size and frequency of poops by about 600% while he’s in there.  His favorite food is sunflower seeds - he’ll dig through an entire pile of other fresh food to get to those sunflower seeds.  Then, top of it off with a raspberry yogurt treat!?!?  Are you kidding me, a mouse at a pest control company living like…well, Dr. Scott!?

I will sign off with a request of my own; please don’t call us to come save mice from your house for purposes of keeping them around.  We’ll call this a one-time special offer!  That said, we are more than happy to take care of any of your mouse and rat control needs.

Dr. Scott-
Thank you so much for helping us out with our Mosquito problem.  I could hardly stand it before but you definitely took care of us.  Thank you so much for you help with our Pest Control Problems.

Venus Pest Control is great.  We never have any issues, and they are great working around our 2 dogs. They have a little different philosophy then most places, with a little more focus on environmental safety.
 
I trust Dr. Scott enough to let him have a copy of our house key.  WIEGEHT
I'll second Venus Pest Company - We used them when we were in town too. Really liked them and the stuff they use is organic, which I liked.
They also gave us a discount because they would do our house and the neighbor's on the same visit.  TXELSIE

Another vote for Venus. We've been using Scott's services for years and have been very pleased.  AGS_IN_OMAHA

Dr. Scott with Venus is great. My new house had some scorpion issues and he knocked them out on one trip. He's also great at killing wasps.  SLOW-G

Venus has been a great service for us and we've been using them for the past several years now.
We recently started using the bi-annual fire ant treatment and for us with a large yard we spend lots of time in I can honestly say that after 1-2 're-treats' we've had no fire ants and no hassles getting them to come out in between scheduled visits for any problems. RJP

I had some real nasty wasps in my eaves and after I used several cans of wasp killer I call Venus was Scott was able to get rid of them. I guess it helps that Scott has a PhD in entomology so he knows his bugs or more importantly how to kill them.  SLOW-G

We had our inaugural 2009 mosquito treatment today. Scott and his crew are very professional, friendly and totally on the customer service program.... always a pleasure.  MOMLAW

Scott is a great guy...He has been treating our house since it was under construction 5 years ago and we live out in the sticks near a creek. He's managed to keep our house pretty much pest free for that time and I can vouch for his mosquito spray. It is pretty amazing how well that works. I have always laughed at his phone number since he first got it (you figure it out) but I will never forget it.  AGGEEPOP 

+ 2 for the Venus "skeeter squad" treatment. I spent many afternoons/evenings outside last summer bite-free. Usually if there is a mosquito within 1,000 feet I get bit, but not w/ this treatment.  EGRET

We also use Venus for our quarterly service plus recently signed on for the mosquito treatment. We are loving it! Highly recommend.  ANNEAC

Dr. Scott himself came to our house today and treated our yard for mosquitoes! He was extremely professional, friendly, and fast. Can't wait to get outside and enjoy our yard without dousing myself in bug spray!  ACUTT817

 

Dr. Scott,
My daughter lives with her family in Bryan and they have you spray their yard for mosquitoes. They are very pleased with the results, and I have enjoyed being outside at their house.I usually get bit when no one else has even noticed mosquitoes, so I have a very difficult time enjoying outside. We live in Houston - Can you recommend a service in our area that treats for mosquitoes as you do?

Thank you.
Brenda C.

I recommend Scott Lingren PhD at Venus Organic Pest Control. Aggie educated and well respected and trustworthy.

VENUS is great. Scott the owner is a professional in every good sense of the word. His technicians are efficient, effective, and personable. What more could you want??!!  MOMLAW

Another vote for Venus! It's so exciting to see so many use him. He started from the ground up and is obviously growing.  TWIX

Venus will cut you a discount if you arrange with a neighbor to have them do both houses on the same trip. They are entomologists too, so they get inside the mind of the bug   TXELSIE

Venus has always done a great job for us--the spray is safe for kiddos and pets, but deadly to all bugs.  AGS_IN_OMAHA

Wise choice, we have been using Scott to treat our 2 acres for mosquitos for the past 3 years and love the results. Plus if you find mosquitos after he sprays he will come back and retreat for free...only happened 1 time, he treated right before a big rain.  TXBBQMAN

After reading all the recommendations for their mosquito control and having my son eaten alive over the weekend, I gave them a call to have my yard treated. I called at 12:30pm and they were at my house at 1:45pm spraying the yard. 
I'm looking forward to spending this evening in my yard not getting bitten.  MIMI

Venus has always done a great job for us. It's comforting to know that my wife and daughters can play in the back yard without getting West Nile. Also comforting to know they won't choke to death on some nasty chemical treatment used to keep the mosquitos away.
Scott is a terrific guy. Venus is locally owned. I encourage you to give them a try.  VILLAGER

I'm so glad I'm seeing all of these positive comments! After a billing debacle with another large pest control company here in town, I chose to switch over to Venus Pest Control.
I spoke with Jennifer this afternoon who was not only sweet (and certainly didn't mind my screaming toddlers in the background!), but set up an appointment that worked perfectly with our schedule.  I hope I'm even more impressed when they come out to do our risk assessment!  4LILMONKEYS

2 good things to say about Venus. First,we used them in College Station and they were always friendly and did a great job. Second, when we moved to Houston, we were stunned at the cost of pest control - Venus NEVER charged us as much as the organic guys down here want.  TXELSIE

Wanted to give a big thanks to Venus pest control and especially Jennifer( I think it was jennifer)
She went out of her way to make a stop at my house after work to confirm carpenter ants and make a appt date 2 days later.
very pleased with the personal attention I got and the fast service.
I do alot of my pest control myself, this was out of my league. I will recommend you guys to anyone who is looking.  CSAGYO

Before we started using Venus two months ago, you couldn't walk in our backyard for more than 30 seconds without getting bit. Now, we sit outside and let the kids play for hours on end without a single bite.
Our neighborhood is notorious for mosquitoes. We live only a few hundred yards north of the water treatment plant behind Home Depot.  FCAG

I was suprised to find out from a friend that Venus will even do pest control in rural areas. A friend of mine has them come out to Iola quarterly. They were charged the same price as I for intown services.  AWESOME12ATM
