AMD Snacks Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 A few weeks ago I went to a tattoo place I had been visiting trying to catch the owner (who seems to be a ninja or something because I always miss him) and I finally did. He was pleasant enough, but almost immediately said he can't take a candy machine (bulk candy) because he has too many ants. I gave my best shot in explaining the ants can't get in my machine because of the "special gel" (which is vasoline) prevents any bugs from getting in. He still was a pretty solid no and showed me ants crawling all over his walls. For starters I have no idea why there was so many ants in a tattoo place, but also it's been bugging me ever since. I had the thought to grab some vasoline from the car and show him how ants can't walk over it, but honestly I just use it because I was told to, never really tested it's effectiveness. But just in case I ever get this rejection again, i'm trying to figure out if anybody has any other ideas or suggestions to that ant/bug thing..Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerformaVending Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 If they've got bugs actually crawling around, then it's probably not a good spot for vending. Vaseline isn't a permanent solution, and if you've got consistent bugs you're going to have problems eventually. When people ask me about the possibility of bringing bugs in to their business, I always state that mu units are self-contained, and employ various non-toxic bug repellent methods. I don't hear that too often though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMD Snacks Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 Ok cool, I've heard variations a couple times. . Things like it's going to attract bugs, or the guy before had a machine that got bugs. .I just wasn't sure if that was a knee jerk common rejection. .. lol kind of felt dumb standing there because I had no response, but like they say, plenty of other locations to find Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
