Setting Up a Pest Control Business | Cost & Criteria

SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TODAY800.525.8866

There is no requirement to have prior industry experience in order to qualify to become a Pestmaster Services franchisee. In fact, some of our existing franchisees have enjoyed the success of launching a franchise with no previous experience. We look for men and woman with a true entrepreneurial spirit and a focused drive to succeed in everything they do. Whether you are joining us as a semi-absentee owner (runs business and hires a licensed individual to handle field operations), or you will be the only employee starting out, we always look to work with someone who wants to learn the business from the ground up and isn’t afraid to get in the middle of any situation in order to find solutions to any challenge. Someone with no hang-ups in the area of sales calls and in –person service calls is definitely a plus. You must be coachable and willing to listen and follow direction and guidance, at least in the first several months. If becoming financially independent, being your own boss and creating a financial robust future for you and your family is your direction in life we want to talk to you.

Dr. Stuart Mitchell | BCE

Once I joined Pestmaster, I realized that you just can’t put a dollar value on the amount of support and resources made available to me. We have an impressive and documented track record with gaining local, state and federal contracts to our franchise network. They have assisted me with several contract opportunities and have gone out of their way to support me in this and in all areas of business.

Gabriel (Gabe) Cordero | Pestmaster Services® of Desert Valley, CA

I’ve been in the industry for years and I can’t tell you just how valuable the Pestmaster franchise opportunity really is. I have much greater access to identifying and getting potent government contracts with the help and assistance from the corporate office. We would not be nearly as successful as we are today, had we not purchased a Pestmaster Franchise.

Wayne Holliday & Tommy Houk | Pestmaster® Services of Lake City & Gainesville, FL

In today’s pest control business environment, we all need some sort of competitive edge and Pestmaster has definitely given us the edge we needed to set us apart from the competition.

Bart Van Diepen | Pestmaster® Services of Northern San Diego, CA

Pestmaster^® has been the best investment I’ve ever made in my life!

Barrett Alley | Pestmaster® Services of Kingston, NY

We had options, but if we hadn’t decided on a Pestmaster Services franchise, we could not have gone from just one to several employees in less than one year of purchasing the franchise. Without the franchise, we would not have known about the high-dollar pest control services opportunities such as West Point Academy and we would certainly not have become the successful contract bidder that we are today.

Paul Alley | Pestmaster® Services of Kingston, NY

I owned my own small pest control business for six years before I decided to buy a national brand franchise. The amount of business I was able to produce in those six years was doubled in just my first year with Pestmaster Services. Joining the Pestmaster brand was an excellent choice for me and for the future of my business.

Pestmaster® Services began servicing pest control needs after Jeffrey Van Diepen founded the company in 1979. With a modest start in the small eastern Sierra town of Bishop, CA, it became Van Diepen’s mission to build a national pest control company, providing leading edge technologies in the control of insects, rodents, birds, weeds, and other pests.

As the company grew, it continued expanding its service offerings in ways that would differentiate itself from traditional pest control competitors.
