iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Pest Control @pestcontrolpod.bsky.social · 18/10/2025

Pest Control is going on indefinite hiatus. Thank you for all your support of this wonderful, weird little show 🫀 Follow the cast in their future endeavors: Jonas - @bclues.bsky.social Sam D - @samdarr.bsky.social Keeper Sam - @laggardson.bsky.social William - @kwilliamwhite.bsky.social

A statement on a green background says: "Hi all,

Thank you for your patience while we have had some conversations behind-the-scenes. Unfortunately we’re going to continue being on indefinite hiatus for the foreseeable future. If anything changes we’ll of course let you all know. We know this is disappointing (trust us, we feel it too!) but it couldn’t be avoided at this time.

Previous episodes will continue to be available on all of the same podcast streaming services. The show Discord will remain active - though members of the cast may step back from its moderation at their own discretion. The Patreon settings will be adjusted to disallow new subscriptions, and set all current content to “free” except the written mysteries, which will be migrated to a separate Itch.io page. Current Patrons at the $10+ level will still receive copies of the mysteries, free of charge.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting this weird, heartwrenching, magical, horrific, special show over the last few years - it means the world to us to see people enjoying it.

— The Pest Control Cast"

I do not want to live out of spite for those that hate me. I want to live and *thrive*. I deserve more than an angry, sad life of just trying to get by. I deserve a life full of joy, safety, and excitement. & so do all of us who find our very existence threatened under the current hegemony.
