Now Hiring: Pest Control Route Technician - Join the Experts at Pest USA
Looking to build a long-term career where your work makes a real difference every day? At Pest USA, we've been leaders in pest and termite control since 1971, growing our reputation through expert service, attention to detail, and a commitment to doing things right the first time. As we continue to expand into new markets, we're searching for dedicated individuals to join our team as Pest Control Route Technicians.
In this role, you won't be stuck behind a desk - you'll be out in the field, solving problems, protecting homes and businesses, and delivering top-notch service that customers rely on. You'll be trained to tackle everything from routine pest prevention to specialized termite control, gaining valuable skills and certifications along the way.
As a Route Technician, your primary focus will be either pest control or termite services - but flexibility is key. When your main route slows down, you'll jump in to support the team wherever needed, ensuring seamless service across the board. Every day brings a new challenge, and your ability to self-manage your schedule, stay organized, and deliver excellent customer care will set you up for success.
Your day starts by reviewing your schedule, checking your equipment, and stocking your company vehicle as needed. On termite routes, you'll locate, evaluate, and scan bait stations, measure property dimensions, and log all products used on-site. You'll graph homes, operate equipment safely and responsibly, and ensure all services are performed according to our standards and the customer's contract. You'll also have the chance to identify additional service needs, provide quotes, and recommend solutions-giving you the opportunity to boost your earnings through incentives.
Whether you're communicating with customers, inspecting attics and crawlspaces, or navigating the ins and outs of different properties, your attention to detail, professionalism, and problem-solving skills will be essential. You'll also keep your vehicle clean and compliant for inspections, maintain all tools and equipment, and make safety a priority on every job.
To be successful, you'll need to be at least 21 years old with a valid driver's license and a clean driving record. You should be comfortable working outdoors in all weather conditions, lifting up to 50 pounds, and spending time on your feet, crawling, climbing, and inspecting hard-to-reach spaces. Previous pest or termite control experience is a plus-but if you're driven, dependable, and ready to learn, we'll train you and help you get certified within your first 30 days.
What We Offer:
We believe in rewarding hard work. In addition to competitive base pay, you'll have the opportunity to earn performance-based incentives for upselling services. We also provide a company vehicle and gas card, plus a full benefits package including medical, dental, vision, and supplemental insurance. You'll enjoy paid time off, access to a 401(k) with company match, and the chance to grow within a company that values your contributions and supports your success.
Before you start: All applicants must pass a drug screening, background check, and provide a clean MVR (Motor Vehicle Report).
If you're looking for a hands-on career with purpose, growth potential, and the chance to be part of a respected and growing company - apply today and start your journey with Pest USA.
