Responsibilities as an Outside Pest Control Specialist ...

• Conquering Mosquitoes and other Outdoor Pests - Yes, you are there to wage war on mosquitoes, other pesky insects, and outdoor pests that can ruin outdoor and indoor fun. Our customers depend on you to remove and repel these enemies from their yards and homes.

• Doing It with Style - As the face of the Mosquito Joe brand, you bring professionalism by following our Mosquito Joe process. In addition, you go above and beyond to deliver an unparalleled customer service experience.

• Communicating with the Local Office- You are the boots on the ground but will be in close communication with, and supported by, the office team. This is key for making sure you have the right supplies to do the job and ensuring you know which property to treat and when.

This Pest Control Job is For You If...
• You love being outside.
• You would rather be physically active than stuck behind a desk.
• You enjoy variety. Every property is different, with different problems to solve.
• You value working independently and are ready to use your excellent communication skills when you have the opportunity. (You might work solo or with a partner. You might meet the homeowner, or you might not.)
• You enjoy seasonal work. This is the type of job where you work hard for six to eight months of the year and can do something else in the winter.

To Succeed in this Role as a Mosquito Control Specialist ...

• Always bring your A-game. Remember, you are always on a public stage (and often on customers' cameras). You might think no one is home or watching, but you might impress someone with your pest-control professionalism!

• Stay on schedule. We will give you the schedule and timing for the day (usually 15+ appointments).

• Do it right the first time. You do not want the customer to call you back out to do it over.
• Leave the whining at home. Some days the work will be hard. It will be hot. You will not want to work. Then your work ethic will kick in, and you will show up with a smile.

• Think observantly and creatively when assessing each unique property. Every property is different, with different problems to consider and solve.
