Typical work hours are 8am to 5 or 6pm Monday through Friday, with occasional Sundays during the warmer months (5-7 Sundays per year). We are closed on Saturdays and you will never be asked to work Saturdays.

  • Talks with customers to understand their pest problems and identify areas of the property where they are seeing pest activity
  • Inspects the property for pest entry points and performs minor exclusion work to seal entry points to prevent pest entry
  • Places monitoring stations to track pest activity for identification and treatment
  • Performs pesticide treatments to prevent pest entry and to treat current activity for pests such as roaches, rodents (mice and rats), mosquitos, ticks, ants, spiders, and stinging insects to keep families and children safe
  • Sets rodent devices to eliminate rodent activity
  • Removes and disposes of deceased pests such as rodents and stinging insects


Job Duties include:

  • 15+ hours a week driving between customer locations
  • 10+ hours a week performing preventive pest control services at residential locations (single family homes and townhomes) with occasional commercial locations (small retail locations)
  • 8+ hours a week of Sales stops (meeting with potential residential customers to talk to them about pest control and close the sale), and performing the initial service while on site
  • 4+ hours a week visiting current residential customers who have pest problems in-between scheduled quarterly visits, to assess pest concerns and provide treatment to solve their pest issues (call-backs)
  • 30 minutes a week attending weekly team meetings
  • Continuing education/training to increase your knowledge relating to pest control and entomology (monthly)
  • Other duties as required

We offer above-average pay for the industry, an excellent benefits package, and a fun work environment. We focus on career growth and like to promote from within. We provide excellent training, and our technicians typically receive full certification within 18 months (rodent, termite, core, and general), paid for by the company.

Our employees love learning, are inquisitive, like to have fun, and go above and beyond for our customers—such as bringing trash cans up from the curb. Our customers compliment our technicians on being very knowledgeable and providing quality service.

Our training schedule for service technicians is a two-month program, with training every day with our supervisors to learn about insects and rodents and effective treatment methods.


After training, you will start your day at the office where you will pick up your company vehicle and drive to your first stop, returning your vehicle to the office at the end of each day. After one year you will be eligible to take your vehicle home after your last service.
