Feature Story
The Ememy Within
We are currently in the process of commercializing a radically unique concept
in insect, bird, and animal deterrence that uses
the organism’s keen sense of smell to deter rather than kill.”
History
The original research began with the successful development of
a product to safely deter a common pest, the woodpecker. (Woodpeckers annually inflict millions of dollars in damage to power
company’s wood pole systems throughout the country.) Once
proven effective by the U.S. National Wildlife Research Institute,
the technology moved rapidly into deterrents for other pests (including squirrels, mice, rats, snakes, raccoons, roaches, ants, spiders, flies, mosquitoes, and birds of many species, these to
mention but a few) and into other industries including consumer
and retail.
Because customers have primarily been power companies, their
natural inclination was to see which of their other problem critters
it would work on. Over the past 20+ years this led to their testing of
various forms of Sniff’n’Stop on fire ants, spiders, wasps, bees,
flies, snakes, frogs, mice, rats, squirrels (rats with fuzzy tails), bats,
pigeons, monk parakeets, sparrows, scorpions, horses, porcupines,
and even bears, these just to mention a few. In each case Sniff’n’Stop has proven to be effective. Because it worked on such a
wide variety of organisms we had to research what they all had in
common to be able to explain it. The answer was in “pheromones”.
Pheromones are present in all living organisms.
The Technology
n enemy is currently crossing our porous southern
borders. Regardless of your political beliefs, this foe
will show you no mercy. Unfortunately this enemy
is already here. Men, women, children – none are
safe and certainly not the unsuspecting electrician that
comes too close to one of their base camps in an outdoor
electrical box. Killer bees and fire ants can potentially
kill you with a barrage of venomous stings.
So how do you protect yourself? Actually,
Phil Landers has developed an incredibly
effective defensive weapon that temporarily confuses them and warns them to stay
away. It renders bees completely stunned and
harmless for long enough to remove the threat.
Fire ants likewise follow this same pattern; they
vacate the treated area and stay away. The really
neat thing is there are no poisons and it’s safe for people,
the environment and other critters.
According to Mr. Landers, “It has only been with the Lord’s help
that development of these natural products has been possible.
A
6 The Utility Source • April 2012
Mr. Landers states, “It has long been known that compared to
other species, a human’s sense of smell is one of the least developed of all organisms. What the Lord has shared is a way to activate the mechanism that he uses to protect every insect, bird, and
animal’s species, the Warning Pheromone.”
A warning pheromone is a chemical that the body gives off when
it senses something is wrong or is unexpected. Pheromones, in
general, control a significant portion of all organisms’ daily existence from reproduction, to social interactions, to species preservation and beyond. Of the five senses, the sense of smell is one of
the most powerful as it is the only sense where the information is
fed directly to the brain. Said another way, the organism has no
other alternative but to react.
An excellent example of the power and range of Pheromones
can be found with a female dog in heat. Her body emits a
pheromone that drives male dogs crazy AS FAR AS 6 MILES AWAY.
While we can’t smell or sense it, they can.
Landers says, “One way that has been discovered to release
these warning pheromones in any organism is to confuse it. Several methods can be used to accomplish this. The method the
Lord has shown us is the use of unnatural combinations of natural
0412TUSp06-35#1:0212TECp06-32
4/24/12

Page 7
food fragrances.”
He continues, “All organisms know their foods and what they
smell like. They also know which foods go together and, conversely, which ones don’t. Known as Essential Oils, our products
combine these natural food fragrances in combinations and concentrations that most organisms have not been able to identify.”
For nearly twenty years our research has proven this technology
has been proven effective in deterring, not killing, a variety of organisms. The technology, trademarked “Sniff’n’Stop”, has been
used successfully for more than 15 years in the power and telecom industries. Major electric companies in this country have already field tested and standardized these eco-friendly products
for use as their preferred method of dealing with many of their
bird issues.
Over the past few years Mr. Landers has concentrated his efforts
into “natural pest deterrents” for use in the power and telecom industries and, most recently on more globally-oriented problems
such as killer bees, flies, and mosquitoes. “While the Lord has given
us the technology to work with, the challenge has been to find economical ways to apply it in such a way as to make it usable even in
the most underdeveloped areas,” comments Landers.
Sniff’n’Stop-based products are currently available in various
forms including, but not limited to, paints, aerosol sprays, timerelease misters, odorant pads, room scent modifying kits, caulks,
granules, with many others in the pipeline. The methods of disseminating Sniff’n’Stop’s natural fragrance appear to be limited

only by the imagination.
More important than
the delivery devices is the
“pests” it deters. To discover
just which pests Sniff’n’Stop
would effectively deter they
enlisted the aide of their
huge utility customer base.
Phil Landers states, “Rather
than depending on the classical test-it-in-thelab-then-verify-it-in-the-field development technique, we decided to do our verification testing upfront in the field
with real customers and real-world problems. A side benefit of this
technique was we were able test these products on the specific pests
that our customers were experiencing problems with. In addition,
it gave us an invaluable resource, our customer’s experience and
creativity. For more than 25 years these customers, many of which
are some of the largest electric and telecom companies in America,
have proven the effectiveness and safety of Sniff’n’Stop.’
‘Sniff’n’Stop’s proven applications are WORLD WIDE and are
found in virtually every industry and socioeconomic group in virtually every country throughout the world. With the Lord’s help we
will continue to work to promote this invaluable technology.”
Even though the enemy is already here, Landers states, “the
Lord has given us the direction to ways of safely and humanely
dealing with these pesty and biting problems.” TUS

Feature Story
Florida contractor bores more than
thirteen hundred holes through rock
with new rock pilot bit.
he following story tracks how an idea from the field was
developed into this incredibly successful rock cutting bit.
For those of you who drill holes for utility poles, you
know hitting rock can really slow you down. It can chew
up bucketfuls of expensive auger teeth and if you have any weaknesses in your equipment, digging through rock will quickly help
you find them. Several years back a large electrical contractor got aggravated enough to earnestly search for a solution. Part of the problem was with the round auger teeth that were supposed to rotate in
their holders as the auger turned. Rock particles were becoming
lodged between the tooth and holder causing it to stop spinning.
The combination of pressure and friction against one spot on the
tooth would quickly wear it out. If the operator wasn’t careful it
could chew through the tooth, the holder and the auger flighting destroying an expensive auger. There had to be a better way . . .
They had a number of trenchers and had recently started using a
new style tooth in their rock trenchers. The tooth didn’t spin but instead had a huge amount of carbide (a much harder metal than steel)
on the cutting edges of the tooth so it didn’t have to rotate. It cut
through rock much faster than the old conical cutters. So if it worked
so well on the trenchers, wouldn’t that same thing work in an auger?
They called Jeff Sager whose family owns an auger manufacturing company based out of Birmingham, Alabama. They wanted to
know if there was any way he could mount those teeth on an auger.
If anyone could do it, Jeff could. Jeffrey Machine has been a southern, family owned business for over three decades. They have
amassed a huge amount of knowledge about augers. They enjoy
using that information to help contractors solve auger related
problems. To paint a better picture of what these folks are like,
their attitude reminds this writer of a certain southern gun manufacturer with a current popular reality TV show. They are tight
knit, many of them come from the same town, from the same
school and they just click together.
New customers are generally surprised when asked questions
about the project they’ll be using their tool on, and to learn that the
company will custom craft the tool to their application. Even
though they have grown into the world’s largest independently
owned auger manufacturer, Jeffrey Machine started out as a machine shop. Customizing a tool for the application remains a common practice for them. So, the ones to do it.
Jeffrey Machine took on the project to see if the contractor’s idea
of using a stationary tooth would work. They hard welded the
trencher teeth to the auger just to give it a try. It ended up working
beyond expectations. Unfortunately the teeth eventually wear out,
even though they far outlasted the standard round ones. With the
bits hard welded the contractor had to send the auger back to the
factory to change out the teeth. A whole new tooth and holder system would have to be developed so the cutting bits could be easily
T

replaced. The process took several years and even included a trip to
an area of Germany famous for the highest grade carbide.
Humorous side note: Jeff was forced to learn some basic German for his travels. One of his English speaking German counterparts laughed when he heard him. He said it was the first time
he’d ever heard anyone speak German with an Alabama accent.
Most generally projects don’t lead to globetrotting, but Mr. Sager
considered this important enough to go as far as it took to make it
happen. The end result is a stationary rock drilling bit and holder
system designed specifically for use with derrick augers. The
“Dragon’s Tooth™” system works incredibly well on a large variety
of rock conditions and more than satisfied the contractor’s needs.
How effective has it been? One contractor recently ran into
some tough rock in Rainesville, Alabama. With standard teeth it
took thirty minutes to penetrate six inches. Switching to the bolt
on Dragon Tooth system, using the same machinery on the same
rock they penetrated twenty four inches in thirty minutes. That’s
equates to a four hundred percent increase in productivity with a
whole lot less wear and tear on the machine. Oh, also the round
teeth were ruined whereas the Dragon Teeth were undamaged.
Not bad. Of course, just to be realistic, you may or may not experience the same results or your results might be much better.
There’s a whole lot of different types of rock and they all vary when
it comes to drilling. There is not a one-size-fits-all solution, but
this is definitely one tool system you may want to seriously consider adding to your tool kit.
Let’s have a look at the guy that drilled over thirteen hundred
holes with a Dragon Pilot Bit. Sam Stoia owns and operates AAA
Quality Docks & Boatlifts Of The Keys in Key Largo, Florida. Mr.
Stoia keeps a crew pretty busy digging holes along the shore with a
derrick drill rig set up on a barge. He uses a standard 18” derrick

So in summary when companies listen
and care enough to go the extra mile, it can
become a wonderful source for useful new
product ideas. An old-timer in the utility
construction industry once told me, “Listen to the guys in the trenches. If you’ll just
shut up and listen, they’ll tell you what they
need.” His advice has proven to be correct
in this case. A successful product developed from the field for the field will typically find a plethora of new applications,
just like the Dragon Tooth finding a perfect
use cutting holes in sea beds. Kudos to Mr.
Sager and his team for listening and coming
up with a better rock cutting solution for

auger with standard bullet teeth. He has
added some punch to it with a Dragon Pilot
Bit. The pilot holds four Dragon teeth and a
round carbide center point. When questioned about how hard the coral rock is
compared to other rock, Sam comments,
“There is no soft stuff (Key Largo, FL) to
speak of and that’s what your dragon
toothed tip has performed wonderfully on.
It’s still sharp, it’s still good.” Commenting about the digging conditions through
their coral formation, “the friction is immense and we go through the stainless
wear bars pretty fast on the outside edges
of these things. We go through the bullet
teeth too but we haven’t gone through the
dragon teeth yet.” At the time of the interview they had punched over a thousand
holes with little to no obvious wear on the
teeth. I just received word that he’s now
drilled over thirteen hundred holes. Sam
added, “That Dragon Tooth pilot just
keeps working like a son-of-a-*#@!! (sailor
talk).” He likes it. So if you have a job

effrey Machine Incorporated (www.jeffreymachine.com) has become one of the
largest auger manufacturers in the world but they offer the highly personalized
service you might expect from a small machine shop. Starting out as a machine
shop in 1977 they began designing augers for local contractors. The company
experienced an explosion of growth as word spread about the quality tools they
were producing. They went from a modest nineteen thousand square foot office and
shop to their current 100,000’ state of the art facility. Unlike big corporations that
have been repeatedly bought, sold and merged, Jeffrey Machine is privately owned.
So essentially all the experience they have acquired hasn’t been lost in a corporate
cloud but is available to help with your particular drilling tool needs. Located in
Birmingham, Alabama their facility includes a mammoth flighting press with capabilities to press everything up to twelve feet diameter by two inch thick flighting. They
have a huge computerized laser/plasma cutting table that will quickly carve up enormous slabs of steel into any type of flighting imaginable. Top notch machinists,
welders and every piece of equipment needed to customize anything on the fly has
been provided. That of course includes robotic welders, CNC’s, and soon to be
added will be a rolling press to roll up to 2” thick plates of steel into barrel formations. These are used for core barrels, clean out buckets, etc. Jeffrey Machine’s skills
have branched into all types and kinds of derrick augers, foundation augers, utility vehicle accessories and untold thousands of one of a kind tools crafted for an individual
contractor’s needs. Visitors are wowed by how big everything is, how friendly the
people are, how clean it’s kept and how efficiently everything is set up. TUS

wildlife deterrent
F
or more than 25 years, I-Corp-I-Foam Specialty Products Corp. has researched and developed systems designed to effectively deter wildlife from utility infrastructure. Phil Landers, director of research and development for I-Corp/I-Foam and president of Sniff’N’Stop Inc is a research scientist and has worked on a
number of government and private funded studies specifically for this purpose.
It was learned through these studies that animals do not like certain odors. The problem was that the odors they
particularly disliked dissipated too rapidly to remain effective for any length of time.
Mr. Landers is credited for developing a patented process by which the odors could be contained and released
over very long periods of time. This has proven to be far more effective than poisons to keep wildlife off of and
out of utility infrastructures. Poisons are typically only effective until they are consumed, thereby requiring constant
monitoring for replacement. In contrast, an effective odorant system can continue to repel critters for many years.
Poisons typically require special licensing and can be hazardous to personnel, pets, people (including children),
the environment, etc. The odorant used in the Sniff ‘N’ Stop products is made of food grade ingredients and
therefore requires no special licensing and poses no danger to people, critters or the environment. Mr. Landers
has made it his organization’s mission to work closely with utility crews and companies. In this way they can
learn what the utility’s particular critter/insect problems are and design appropriate delivery systems for their application. The odorant has been applied with paints, putties, granules, etc. and now in a new aerosol form that
effectively wards off bees and wasps. Minor alterations of the odor have broadened the deterrence and new
products are constantly being developed for world wide applications in many different market places.TUS

imes are tough and every organization needs to save money
whenever possible. We have all been forced to stretch dollars
by reducing fleets and manpower. In the utility industry it’s difficult to imagine a way to safely and effectively improve
processes while respecting restrictions created by environmental regulations. It may not be as hard as you’d think. A Linetrac can be the
solution to not only cost and environmental needs, but Linetrac’s
uniqueness offers many more benefits.
So what is a Linetrac? It’s a specialized CAT dozer with a
six way blade. A Palfinger compact knuckle boom crane with
a reach of 80 feet is then added and is able to fold neatly behind the cab. The Linetrac features two man baskets, auger
drive with bit, a boom winch, rear mounted winch, pole tamp,
A/C power, hydraulic tool circuit and 30 gallons of water. The
auger can dig holes at variable distances up to 20 feet from
the rig.
That’s impressive, but how about the fact that the remote control
allows the operator to perform tasks safely—crane operation,
auger control, and dozer start/stop from a distance of 400’. Remote operation improves efficiency and safety on the job site. It
18 The Utility Source • April 2012
allows peace of mind for everyone involved when an operator
can maintain a good view of the job and manipulate it from a
safe vantage point.
Environmentally friendly? YES! At 56,000 lbs there is less than 8
psi evenly distributed over the track surface. As Nathan Bunting,
the inventor puts it “Works likes a grizzly bear…walks like a rabbit”. Linetrac works in steep muddy or snowy terrain with ease
and it climbs like a homesick angel. This specialized piece of
equipment is one track in and one track out with little disturbance
to its surroundings.
Simply put, Linetrac can clear brush, blade roads, work in steep
muddy or snowy terrain, offset lines, dig holes, set poles and anchors, and put a lineman 80 ft in the air to complete the job. As
Travis Terry of TVA stated in a utility journal article “Three quarters of the total cost of the machine was paid for [with] the money
saved on one four-mile project”.
Considering all the different uses for a Linetrac, it would be easier to tell you what it can’t do. Sorry but, it can’t float or fly. Not
yet, anyway. But with so many tools and possibilities, the Linetrac really is like a Swiss Army knife on tracks. TUS

or over 40 years, the Sauber Manufacturing name has been synonymous
with industry innovations. Pole and reel handling trailers are complimented by
substation recovery units, oil-filtration trailers, self-loaders, turret trailers, pullers
and flatbeds. All designs focused on the utility-only market. These introductions to the utility industry are universally used as the yardstick for performance,
functionality and durability of high quality utility-grade equipment. Common sense
engineering has led to dozens of industry firsts, such as galvanized steel finishes,
hitting the streets over 25 years ago – literally making rusting fleet equipment an issue of the past.
What distinguishes Sauber's products from the pack are the use of non-rusting materials such as galvanized steel, stainless steel, aluminum, bronze, and aluminummagnesium castings. From the very base of the trailer you'll notice a single,
bent-tube design that extends from the rear bumper to the front pintle eye without a
cut and weld. To back-up the integrity of how well their equipment is built, they offer
an unchallenged 10 year warranty. Fleet managers that choose Sauber want to invest in equipment that will be around for years to come. Mechanics praise this
equipment because it's simple design makes for easy and less-frequent maintenance. Parts are universal across most models making fleet standardization an
even easier task. Sauber offers the resources of an experienced engineering-driven
team to help you develop your next piece of equipment from the design stage
through to training on your new custom application.
The financial strength of this company points to a well run organization that plans
