As a Pest Control Technician, you'll manage your own route, visit homes and businesses, identify what's causing pest problems, and help customers protect their health & property. You don't need previous pest control experience to succeed here! We provide paid training, help you prepare for state certification exams, pay for your testing, and continue investing in your development throughout your career. What You'll Do You'll travel throughout your assigned service area, completing residential and commercial appointments. At each stop, you'll inspect the property, identify pest activity and contributing conditions, perform treatments, document your work, and educate customers on what to expect and on preventing future problems. Most of your day is spent working independently, but you'll always have the support of your manager and local team whenever you need another perspective or run into a unique situation. What You Should Know This isn't a desk job. You'll work outdoors in hot and cold weather, spend a lot of time driving, climb ladders, go into crawlspaces, and occasionally deal with things that are simply unpleasant or gross. Summer is our busiest season, so overtime and occasional Saturdays are often just part of the job. The first few months can be a steep learning curve as you learn different pests, treatment methods, equipment, regulations, and customer situations. By the end of their first season, most technicians are amazed by how much they've learned and the confidence they've built. The best moments come when you solve a problem that has been affecting someone's home, family, health, employees, or business and see the relief your efforts have provided. Grow Your Career As your experience, knowledge, and certifications grow, so do your opportunities. Technicians progress through our career levels, each with a higher pay ceiling: Registered Professional Advanced Senior Elite Once certified beyond being a registered applicator, you'll receive quarterly development reviews so you always know how you're performing, what you can improve, and what it takes to reach the next level. Our top technician pay range of $32-$36 per hour is reserved for highly qualified technicians who hold several certifications, including the Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE) credential, and meet the experience and KPI requirements for our highest technician level.
