AI Receptionist · Pest Controls
Someone with a scorpion problem does not leave a voicemail.
Pest calls are panic calls — they book the first company that answers. Your receptionist picks up every time, calms them down, checks the ZIP, gets the address, and books the inspection while the panic is still yours to solve.

Your AI receptionist
from $149/mo
Answers every call. Never clocks out.
- Pest calls are won in the first thirty seconds.
- A panicked caller will not wait for a callback.
- You’d rather be treating than answering.
So the question was never whether calls are slipping — it’s who catches them starting this week.
The three ways pest controls bleed calls
Panic callers don’t wait — they redial the next company
Somebody just found a scorpion in the nursery. If your phone rings four times, they’re already reading the next listing out loud.
→ Answered in two rings, calmed, qualified, inspection booked — panic converted, not lost.
You’re under a house when the day’s best calls come in
Crawl spaces don’t have reception. Your busiest treatment hours are exactly when new customers call — and exactly when you can’t answer.
→ Every call during every treatment answered, with the address and pest details captured for you.
Real emergencies and routine calls sound identical on voicemail
Wasps inside a house and a quarterly reschedule leave the same red badge on your phone. One of them couldn’t wait.
→ Emergencies recognized and warm-transferred to you live; everything else booked without you.

Your phone rings first. Always.
This isn’t a robot between you and your customers — it’s a safety net under them. Every call rings you the way it does today. Only when you can’t pick up does your receptionist step in, sounding like your best front desk on their best day. You lose nothing. You stop losing calls.

Retention system · built into your receptionist
The Quarterly Plan Conversion
Pest control’s proven model is the protection plan: the one-time scorpion panic that becomes a quarterly account. One-time treatments are jobs; plans are a book of business you can retire on. The conversion happens on the phone, at the moment the problem is solved.
- Every one-time treatment call ends with the plan math: “the quarterly plan covers this AND re-treatments between visits”
- Plan customers recognized instantly — gate codes, history, and free re-treatment rights on file
- Annual termite recheck due? When they call about anything, the receptionist sees it and books it in the same breath
New customers cost marketing. Kept customers cost one good phone call — and yours makes that call every time.
Call the demo line and report a fake roach problem — hear the calm take over.
