🌿 Pest Control Field Technician Intern — Learn the Business from the Ground Up Mosquito Authority & Pest Authority | Shelbyville, IN | Part-Time or Full-Time | Seasonal
Are you interested in entrepreneurship, small business operations, or the green/outdoor industry? This isn't your typical desk internship. You'll spend time in the field doing real work — and alongside it, get direct access to a franchise owner who will invest in your growth beyond the job itself.
What You'll Actually Do:
You'll serve as a Mosquito & Pest Control Technician, applying our Barrier 360 treatments, Mosquito Barrier treatments and other add ons to residential and commercial properties using proven products and equipment. That means working outdoors, driving a company vehicle to client sites, carrying backpack sprayers (up to 60 lbs), and delivering the kind of service that earns 5-star reviews.
This role is physical. You'll be on your feet across multiple properties each day, in Indiana heat and humidity, navigating yards and uneven terrain. We'll be upfront: it's hard work. But if you can handle that, here's what else you'll walk away with.
What You'll Learn:
Beyond the field work, the business owner will personally share:
- Small Business Operations — How an independent franchise is run day-to-day, including scheduling, customer management, and using tools like FieldRoutes CRM
- Government Regulation & Compliance — How pesticide licensing works in Indiana, OSHA requirements, and navigating state regulations as a small business
- Marketing Strategy — Real-world tactics for seasonal service businesses, including social media, local advertising, and customer retention
- Sales & Revenue Growth — How to upsell services, acquire new customers, and increase revenue per route
This is hands-on mentorship from someone who has built a 9-year specialized pest control business in the Indianapolis metro as well as rural areas. If you're curious about how small businesses actually work — from the field to the finances — you'll get a genuine behind-the-scenes look.
You're a Great Fit If You:
- Love working outdoors and don't mind physical labor
- Are a self-starter who can work independently
- Want real-world business exposure, not just coffee runs
- Are genuinely curious about entrepreneurship, operations, or environmental services
- Hold a valid driver's license with a clean record
Requirements:
- High school diploma or GED
- Valid driver's license with clean record
- Ability to perform physical duties (standing, carrying, climbing, etc.)
- No prior pest control experience required — we provide full paid training
What You Get:
- $17–$25/hr depending on experience
- Paid training licensing support
- Performance bonuses
- Free uniforms
- Direct mentorship and business education from the owner
- Flexible scheduling with work/life balance
- Free treatment of your own home if allowed
