About

Skybusters Drone Services is owned and operated by Laurin Bartelmay. I grew up in Minier, Illinois, and currently live in Heyworth, Illinois. After graduating from Olympia High School I joined the U.S. Marine Corp. and was honorably discharged after 4 years of service. I worked at several home building centers before joining the McLean County Sheriff's Dept. for the past 19 years. I spearheaded and organized the law enforcement drone program within the Sheriff's Office the past 3 years. With my retirement from the Sheriff's Office I am providing drone aerial crop spraying and am excited to work together with you to deliver the most precise, thorough applications at the highest level of service. 

At Skybusters, we take pride in the quality of the service provided. We don't 'spray & go away'. We live where we work. My entire adult life has been about service to the community and our country. I will continue this tradition and philosophy of striving for the highest level of service when I provide aerial applications for your crops, fields and right of ways.

Looking forward to a productive partnership with you, Laurin Bartelmay

When I'm not flying drones I am an avid outdoorsman. I spend my time fishing, hunting and shooting skeet/trap/sporting clays.
