For anyone considering this as a career, I cannot express how important it is to choose the right company. Some companies will have you only working 8am to 3pm, Monday to Friday, all holidays off, and banking 45k base salary. Other places will work you like a dog - 7 to 7 and two Saturdays per month just to make 50k. Choose wisely.
I completely agree. I start my days anywhere from 8-9 am in the morning. And I get off anywhere from 2:30pm and 4:30. I have a salary that's $15hr plus a 25% production bonus of the total amount of work I did for the month. And I'm off every weekend, and have 7 holidays off and paid.

I started in 1997 and some guys would make 36k and be home most days by 1pm and some guys would make 60k + and a guy build up a 26k monthly route at 28.7% + bonuses and 10-15% in sales, but terminix bought it like 10 years ago in California.

1st and foremost, I appreciate the time you put into your videos and the knowledge you hope to share with everyone who watches.. That being said, part of what you expressed, I believe to be a bit inaccurate.. You said that there is no need to be licensed at all and that the person/company that you work for, will be licensed and you would simply work under there their licensure. That's not correct. You definitely need to be licensed, at a minimum, as an applicator and ideally, as a field rep. Each individual, even if you are not an operator, is registered with the structural pest control board, under their own individual license number. This does not Grant you the ability to go and get your own customers and start doing your own thing/running your own business. You definitely need to be licensed as an operator for that, but you do, indeed, need to be licensed.. Keep in mind, I'm speaking as a California resident. Don't know much about any other state.
Same in Michigan. The state requires you to get an applicator license. I sprayed herbicide for telecom and had to be licensed in every state I worked in under the same company. Now looking to work pest control and it’s a different license.
Socal I went in my 3rd pest control job first one only paid 13hr no exp got my license through them, next one with branch 2 I got 17hr, during working for them I got contacted from another pestcontrol job offering me 20hr to start got 6month raise to 22hr with no more than 11 stops a day usually 7hr day unless you start early can get 10hr days going for operator license now because there's major profit in your own business
Yea I'm happy with what I'm making in my current pest control company since they paid more than others without trying to slam 11+ stops a day but why work 22hr day to make 200 but make the company 2k with that same route major profit to be made

That’s BS, you need a license to do pest control. I have owned a pest control company for 30 years, all technicians need to be licensed before they are allowed to go out and apply pesticides and that’s after a few months of being trained by a licensed tech
maybe 30 years ago everyone had to be licensed, or maybe it's a special case for your area. In the companies I've worked for, the branch manager holds a license and all of the techs work under his license simply as registered technicians.
Depends on the state- but most need an operator's license (which is just completed sitting in a class) and can work under an applicator license (usually manager or the business entity itself holds). However, if you wanna make the big bucks- getting more licenses would help
@@LIFEwithBAVAN It's called an "apprentice" license. You usually start as an apprentice and then get tested later to get your tech license. All apprentice and licensed technicians work under the RCA of the company "Responsible Certified Applicator". Then you can work your way up and get your CA license "Certified Applicator", with that license her in Texas, you can open your own small business and then hire certified technicians to work under you. But even if you work for a corporate company, if you are CA certified, you can now get fined for most violations because you hold a certified applicator license. Lots of employees choose to stay as a licensed technician, because all the fault falls on the RCA of the company, not the technician.
In the summer time probably yes. i live in michigan so its kind of the same weather. i work for orkin and make about 45k in the summer months and 10-20k in the winter months. summers are really busy in the north.
Bullshit. Nevada and California, and several other states require licensure through the Dept of Agriculture. I own a Pest Control company, and I also care if my employees are felons or have high school educations minimally. Please don't take advise from this guy.

Lots of employees choose to stay as a licensed technician, because all the fault falls on the RCA of the company, not the technician.
Is this a good job if you live in Minnesota??
In the summer time probably yes. i live in michigan so its kind of the same weather. i work for orkin and make about 45k in the summer months and 10-20k in the winter months. summers are really busy in the north.
Hi any pest control job vacancy for me? I am now working at rentokil boecker Kuwait
Are you making an hour wage or getting paid per job I don’t mind doing the dirty work
Bullshit. Nevada and California, and several other states require licensure through the Dept of Agriculture.
I own a Pest Control company, and I also care if my employees are felons or have high school educations minimally. Please don't take advise from this guy.
Not in California. Everyone must be licensed 😊
I applied for this job for terminex bc they said it starts at 75k...does that sound legit or is it bs?
Lol good luck
I'm sure that is a projection of the top out range but now that rentokil bought them who knows what you will get.they are based in the UK so don't expect much
@@service24pestcontrol it's possible that you will make that much. I'm on track to make that
@@lcbd95 I make that in 4 months
@@service24pestcontrol location plays a huge part

What do you know about Northwest Exterminating, any pros and cons if you know or heard at all?
(You don’t have to answer if you don’t feel comfortable talking about another company in anyway , I’m just genuinely curious for me personally)
I used to work for them. Northwest pays pest control techs very well. Usually between the neighborhood of $50,000-$80,000 it depends on your route.
They are owned by Rollins which is also parent of orkin
Is orkin a big pest control company?
I can’t speak for everywhere, but they are the biggest pest control company here in the south….Oklahoma and Texas.
Orkin is the biggest in the US. Terminex and Rentokil after Orkin.
They are big sales organization,I wouldn't say they consider themselves a service company,when I was there it was all about sales not much concern for the service especially once they got your debit information
@@Hunterbay872 rentokil bought terminix so I suppose orkin is now no.2
