Initial Service Technician - No Experience Required

Pay: $3,000-$4,500 per month (base + performance bonuses)
Training: 100% paid, including your state certification exam
Truck: Company vehicle + fuel card (work and commute)
Location: [City/Metro]

Why this job

No pest control experience required. We'll train you, pay for your state certification, and put you in a company truck. If you show up, work hard, and take care of customers, you can be promoted to a Route Technician earning $45K-$65K.

What you'll do

Perform initial pest control treatments for new customers – the first visit that sets up ongoing service. You'll run a route servicing newly sold homes each day, deliver quality work, and build trust with homeowners.

What we offer

• $3,000-$4,500/month base + performance bonuses
• Company truck and fuel card (work + commute)
• Fully paid training and state certification exam
• Health insurance and dental (available within a few months)
• Paid time off: vacation, sick days, holidays, and your birthday
• Real promotion path – many Initial Techs who stick with it move up to Route Tech

The schedule

6‑day work week, Monday‑Saturday. Shifts start around 11 AM and run until the route is finished – typically 8‑10 hours, longer in peak season. Longer routes mean more stops, which means more pay. If you want a standard 9‑to‑5, this isn’t it. If you want to work hard and earn, keep reading. After you earn your promotion to a Route Technician, it is a 5‑day work week with more normal hours (7 AM until route completed, typically around 5 PM).

What we’re looking for

• 21+ with a valid driver’s license and clean driving record
• Ability to pass a background check
• Reliable, motivated, and comfortable talking to customers
• Physical ability to lift equipment, walk properties, and work outdoors in all weather
• Willingness to earn your state pest control certification (we pay for it)
