- Likes managing your own day and workflow
- Communicates well with customers
- Notices details others miss
- Takes ownership without being asked
- Wants a clearly defined path to advancement

What You’ll Actually Do
This is a fast-paced technical field role requiring physical endurance, strong organization, and customer-facing professionalism.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Running a daily route of scheduled pest and wildlife service stops
- Inspecting homes for pest and wildlife activity
- Diagnosing entry points and infestation causes
- Applying pest treatments and basic exclusion solutions
- Setting and removing wildlife traps
- Identifying and selling recurring service and upsell opportunities
- Managing documentation and service records accurately
- Communicating findings clearly and professionally with homeowners
- Managing your own daily route, timing, and workflow
You will frequently work in attics, crawl spaces, on ladders, and outdoors in Florida weather. No two days are exactly the same.
The Type of Person Who Succeeds Here
The strongest route technicians are self-directed, organized, fast-moving, customer-focused, and mentally tough. They solve problems quickly, hit a high volume of stops without sacrificing quality, handle changing schedules calmly, and take pride in keeping customers happy.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys staying busy, working independently, structured advancement, and being trusted with responsibility.
What We’re Looking For
Required
- Clean driving record and valid driver’s license
- Comfortable working in attics, crawl spaces, and on ladders
- Ability to lift 50+ lbs and work outdoors year-round
- Strong personal accountability and work ethic
- Ability to manage a route and work independently without constant oversight
- Strong attention to detail and documentation
- Clear, direct customer communication skills
- Ability to handle pressure, interruptions, and shifting priorities
- Ability to pass a background check and drug screening
Strongly Preferred
- Pest control, wildlife, or field service experience
- Experience managing routes or working independently
- Customer-facing sales or service experience
- Stable work history with demonstrated reliability
Work Environment & Expectations
We run a structured, high-accountability operation: high standards, fast execution, consistent follow-through, strong communication, and professionalism.
This is not a “clock in and coast” environment. We reward ownership, discipline, reliability, and initiative.
