What kind of calls you'll get
The campaign targets pest control-intent searches — homeowners actively looking to hire someone, not researching brand pages or browsing options. Calls usually involve one of these services:
- ✓ General pest control
- ✓ Termite inspection & treatment
- ✓ Bed bug treatment
- ✓ Rodent control & exclusion
- ✓ Mosquito control
- ✓ Ant & cockroach treatment
- ✓ Wildlife exclusion
You opt into the specific services you want during signup. If you only do general pest control and not wildlife exclusion, just check the boxes that match. Out-of-scope calls (a customer asking about something you don't do) aren't billable — dispute and we refund.
Will pay-per-call make exterminators money?
The honest answer is: it depends on three numbers — your average job value, your gross margin after parts and labor, and your close rate on qualified calls. The break-even per-call price is:
The reason the math works for exterminators specifically: Insurance-backed or health-driven: customer is past the "should I" question and is shopping vendors for the work. That intent profile is what makes per-call pricing profitable. Form-fill leads at the same dollar cost convert at a fraction of the rate because the customer is no longer on the phone by the time you call back.
We give you your exact per-call price during signup based on your service area and selected services. You can run the math yourself before you put a dollar in.
Why this beats shared pest control leads from Angi
Angi (and HomeAdvisor and Thumbtack) sell each pest control lead to four to seven contractors at once. You get a notification, you race the others to call the homeowner, and you usually lose because the homeowner answered the first contractor and stopped picking up. Pay-per-call is the inverse: the call rings only your phone. The customer is calling you because they saw your tracking number on a landing page that mentions pest control. There is no race. There is no shared queue. Read the full math comparison at pay-per-call vs Angi.

Who shouldn't use pay-per-call pest control leads
We'd rather lose a sale than waste your money. Pay-per-call is wrong for some exterminators. Specifically:
- You can't reliably answer the phone during business hours. A call you don't answer is a wasted opportunity. Set up an answering service first or you'll burn deposit money.
- You're already at full capacity. If you're turning down jobs, you don't need more leads. Hire first.
- Your average pest control job is small (<$150) and your close rate is below 25%. The math gets thin at low ticket sizes — you'd need very low per-call pricing to make it work.
- You're in a hyper-niche corner of the trade with very low search demand. Pay-per-call requires somebody is searching. If only a handful of people in your area search for what you do, no marketing model fixes that.
Pest Control contractor questions
Can I get termite-only calls and skip general pest? +
Yes. You opt into specific pest types during signup. Termite treatment calls are priced separately — they're higher-ticket jobs, so the per-call rate reflects that. Skip any pest type you don't handle.
Pest control has a strong recurring-revenue model — does this work with service agreements? +
Absolutely. The call comes in from a homeowner with an active pest problem. How you structure the follow-on — one-time visit, quarterly plan, whatever — is entirely up to you. We deliver the first call; you close the recurring contract.
Will I get calls from homeowners who already called a national chain like Orkin? +
Unlikely. We target keywords from homeowners actively searching for a local exterminator, not brand-specific searches. If a call doesn't match your services, dispute it and we refund.
