Pay Per Lead Services in Pierce County, WA for Exterminators & Pest Control

The person who calls an exterminator in Pierce County is usually an owner, and often one living a long way from downtown. Almost two in three occupied homes here are owner-occupied, 227,400 of 351,330, and the median house dates from 1986 (Source: censusreporter.org.). Tacoma has its share of rentals and older housing, but most of the county's pest calls come from family homes in Puyallup, Bonney Lake, Gig Harbor, Lakewood and University Place, on lots big enough to back onto woods, pasture or a ravine.

The October turn. Western Washington's wet season starts in October and builds through winter, with lows in January between 28 and 32 F (Source: wrcc-archive.dri.edu.). That is the month the rodent calls begin. Mice and Norway rats leave fields and blackberry thickets for garages, crawlspaces and attics, and homeowners in the semi-rural parts of the county, Orting, Sumner, the plateau above Puyallup, hear them first. These callers want exclusion work as well as traps, and a company that seals the house properly earns the spring follow-up.

Late summer belongs to wasps. Yellowjacket and paper wasp nests in eaves, wall voids and lawns drive a burst of urgent calls in August and September, often from families with children or a dog stung in the yard. Each job is small, but it is the moment a homeowner who has never had a pest company becomes one who has your number on the fridge.

Spring is ants. Carpenter ants swarming out of a damp deck or a stump near the foundation bring the higher-value calls, because they lead to an inspection and a structural treatment rather than a one-visit spray.

Inspections at sale. When homes change hands, buyers ask for a wood-destroying-organism inspection, and in Washington that takes a Structural Pest Inspector licence, $85 a year on top of the applicator licence (Source: agr.wa.gov.). We route those requests only to companies that hold it.

What a poor lead looks like here: a mole in the lawn for a company that does not do turf work, a raccoon in the crawlspace when you do not trap wildlife, or a caller from Tacoma's North End when your crews never leave the Gig Harbor peninsula. We screen for all three before anything reaches you.

The Washington rule for a pest control company taking leads in Pierce County: The Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) licenses a commercial applicator, a business 'engaged in the business of applying pesticides to the land or property (public or privately owned) of another', which needs the Washington Laws and Safety exam plus a pest-control category exam, financial responsibility coverage, and a $250/year licence; wood-destroying-organism inspections need a separate Structural Pest Inspector licence ($85/year) (Source: agr.wa.gov).
