Product Description

Bob Dillon is a down-on-his-luck exterminator from Queens who just wants to make a killing with his radical new environmentally friendly pest elimination technique, involving his hybrid assassin bugs (a very real group of insects). But when Bob decides to advertise, his flyer falls into the hands of a European murder-for-hire broker who mistakes Bob for a professional assassin. Before he knows it, Bob's "competition" targets him for extermination, sending him running for his life from a motley collection of the world's deadliest and most outrageously eccentric contract killers.

Love it ! 23 May 2001

Format:Paperback
Yes, this was a very enjoyable read. Pest control has an intriguing and attention grabbing story line that is almost believable in its outrage.

The book is hilarious in parts and is an excellent book to take away with you. A great comedy.

When you've read this book do not let it out of your sight. If your friends want a good laugh then buy them a copy (if you lend it then you'll never see it again). If I knew how to write a screenplay then this could be converted into the best comedy ever. A laugh a minute...well worth every penny. Don't just take my word for it, get your own copy today.

By Dr Why
Format:Paperback
Was driving to a customer in Holland with a friend who had the book on the back seat of his car. Started to read it and just could not put the book down. Very glad when the kindle edition came out so I could buy my own copy and read it again. The story is so unbelievable it could almost be true. A very good read which has made me search out and buy other books by Bill Fitzhugh - none of which I have been disapointed with.

Hugely enjoyable
This is one of the few books I have re-read several times. It still makes me laugh. What I can't understand is why it hasn't been made into a film - surely it would be a... Read more

Truly hilarious
I picked this up in a cheapy bookshop for two pound, and laughed out loud from start to finish. A great idea, and a great book.

Classic farce. Superbly entertaining.
A wonderfully crafted farce, based around the mistaken identity of a cockroach exterminator. Very few novels succeed in making the reader laugh out loud but this one fulfils the... Read more
