HERALD STAFF REPORT
MANATEE — Richard Ray Coble, 37, has told police that he knows he must have a business license from the state of Florida in order to do pest control in Bradenton.
But even though he has been warned twice and fined twice before for doing pest control without a license, Coble was caught again on Thursday performing pest control duties in the 5000 block of 58th Avenue East, Bradenton without a license, according to a Manatee County Sheriff’s Office report.
Coble was arrested and charged with being an unlicensed pest control operator.
According to the arrest report, Coble has paid a $600 fine and has one for $1,000 that is outstanding.
Coble, who lives in North Port, was in the Manatee County jail Friday with bond set at $120.

Beucher & Son Tips for a Better Tomorrow:
Do you know how to verify your pest control company is legal? Do you know if your pest control technician is licensed/certified?
Most people do not know and do not know how to check….now you do!
1. Licensed Pesticide Applicator Search: Check here to see if you Florida pest technician is legal.
2. Licensed Pest Control Company Search: Check here to see if your Florida pest company is legal.
You are so correct, check out the company you are thinking of using. Go to the Better Business Bureau in your area, google them (don’t believe everything) but you can also check with friends and relatives. The National Pest Management Association also can give information on licensing and whether they are QualityPro.
