Starting Building Pest Control Services
Pests bring diseases and destroy properties. That is why commercial establishments employ pest control services to keep infestations away. If there is a demand for such service in your place, you can start a business exterminating destructive insects from buildings.
Find out the basics of starting a pest control service business from our guide.
People are averse to pests because of the nuisance they bring. They crawl on dirty surfaces, feed on rotten food, carrying with them bacteria that could cause diseases and potentially cause the death of people. What more, they could destroy properties – rats could eat stacks of important papers, supplies and electrical wiring; they could deposit urine and fecal matters that could leave a mess or worse, destroy electronics; ants could eat tiny computer parts; and termites could destroy a building. That is why a demand for pest control service has come into existence.
While traps and chemicals that can be bought from the supermarket may solve domestic pest problems, large commercial buildings – because of their scale -- need the equipment and expertise of a pest control company. That demand could exist in your area or, if it already exists, there might be a lack of providers for such service. If either one is true, pest control service is a business idea you can start. One of the most convenient aspects of a pest control service is it doesn’t have to be operated in an upfront office. It can even be operated from home or a mobile van. The only important thing is you have a number for people to call when they need your services.
Pest Control Licenses
One of the most important aspects of a pest control service is the fulfillment of licenses that may be required by the state regulator, in addition to the usual licenses required for all businesses. Pest control involves the use of chemical, the cleanup and disposal of rodents, cockroaches, and terminates, and other animals and insects, and so heavy regulation is imposed on providers of such services. Training is necessary and an exam would have to be passed in order for a pest control technician to get a license. It could also be that, before you will be allowed to operate, you would have to get liability insurance for the business, particularly for the risk involved in handling chemicals. The storage of chemicals needed for the cleanup might have to conform to some standards. Visit to www.businesslicenses.com for resources on pest control license.
Basics of Pest Control Service
One can operate a startup pest control service or he can get a franchise. He could specialize in exterminating or preventing a specific type of pest infestation, or solve every type of pest control problem. Central for this are the equipment and cleaning supplies one would need to carry out the service. This could include the basic cleaning equipment, sprayers and pump guns, and usually, a vehicle to carry the equipment and trash to be disposed. One could buy all of these or consider leasing. For the chemicals and equipment, the operator must have a system to order, maintain and control stock.
