WATCH: Pest control tech rescues hawk from Valley pool drain

It was just supposed to be a routine job at a customer’s house for Steven Gonzales, a pest control technician for Truly Nolen Pest and Termite Control.

But it was anything but ordinary.

In his industry, he has dealt with many critters on the job, but this was a first. Gonzales and his trainee, Francisco, spotted a Harris’s Hawk holding on for dear life in a pool drain last Thursday.

There was an instant trust between the wild bird of prey and Gonzales, and without gloves or protection, he was able to pull the hawk to safety. The hawk didn’t even try to resist.
