Bernard
Stegman, Longtime Education
Advocate
The year was 1947 and
Bernard Stegman, a former
Army aircraft officer and
recent graduate from New
York City College, was faced
with an important career
decision. Stegman had a
degree in mechanical
engineering but, by his own
admission, the field did not
appeal to him. Instead, he
turned to his friend, John
Medoff, who recommended he
join his company, Hudson
Exterminating Co., and learn
the business. Once he was
properly trained, he could
open his own pest control
business.
"When spring came along,"
recalled Stegman, "John
said, 'Look, now is the time
to get out there and learn
the ropes. He practically
booted me out, but not
before loading me up with
everything I'd need to start
my own business. John sold
me on the idea of entering
the pest control field. He
said it was a
Depression-proof business.
Having lived through the
Depression and seeing my
family suffer because of it,
pest control appealed to
me."
What Stegman began that
fateful spring day was a
remarkable career in pest
control. The crowning
achievement of his 51-year
career has been the integral
role he played in the
formation of the Long Island
Pest Control Association (LIPCA)
and his pioneering work in
establishing the
association's educational
programs.
"Bernard is the father of
the industry on Long
Island," says Walter
Schroeder, LIPCA executive
secretary. "He has always
been willing to share any
information he has with
anyone to solve a pest
control problem."
Medoff, a lifelong friend,
says, "The thing that has
made him such a success has
been his dedication to his
profession. Often, at some
risk, he would take on a
pest control problem that
others would shy away from,
but he believed in taking
care of his customers. From
the beginning, Bernard was
always accessible. His
customers had his home phone
number. They had confidence
in him."
Stegman says, "Our business
philosophy is simple:
training, education, and
supervision are extremely
important." Behind that
philosophy, however, was
Stegman's early and
continuing passion to learn
everything he could about
pest control, but it wasn't
always easy.
