The man behind the name
A life of invention, story, sacrifice, and family.
Warren M. Barich was known publicly for practical heat-treatment work, pest-control innovation, and the hard-earned reputation behind the “Bugman” name. That public record matters. But the private record matters more.
He loved the Wild West, oldies television, fishing, road trips, drawing, and painting. He was constantly creating and tinkering with new ideas. His adventurous spirit carried his family to every state except Alaska, giving them a lifetime of shared memories and experiences.
He was a master storyteller, filling ordinary days with tales that sparked imagination and pulled the family closer together. Most of all, he loved spending time with his family. He sacrificed everything for them and kept their happiness and well-being above his own.
Barich Holdings was founded to keep that kind of legacy alive: not as decoration, but as a standard.
