Tips for Writing Winning Pest Control Bids

Name the pest. "General pest treatment" is vague. Customers want to hear that you know what you're dealing with. Call it "German cockroach treatment — kitchen and bathrooms" or "Norway rat exclusion and baiting."

Explain your approach. Most homeowners don't know the difference between baiting and spraying. A brief description of your treatment plan builds trust and justifies your price.

Include follow-ups. Pest control rarely works in a single visit. Building 1-2 follow-up visits into your bid shows confidence in your work and makes your pricing look complete rather than nickel-and-diming later.

Offer a guarantee. A 30 or 60-day guarantee on your treatment is a strong closer. If you're confident in your work, it costs you almost nothing and wins more bids.

Upsell prevention. After treatment, offer a quarterly maintenance plan. It's recurring revenue for you and peace of mind for the customer. Include it as an optional add-on in your bid.

Common Pest Control Bid Mistakes

  • Not specifying the target pest (different pests need different treatments)
  • Forgetting to include exclusion work (sealing entry points)
  • Leaving follow-up visits out of the initial bid
  • Not listing the chemicals or methods you'll use
  • Failing to mention your license and insurance numbers

Pest Control Bid FAQ

What should a pest control bid include?

A pest control bid should include the inspection fee, type of treatment (chemical, baiting, trapping, heat), number of follow-up visits, exclusion or sealing work, materials and chemicals used, and any warranty or guarantee on the treatment.

How do pest control companies price their bids?

Most pest control pricing depends on square footage, severity of infestation, type of pest, and whether it's a one-time treatment or ongoing service plan. Initial treatments cost more than maintenance visits.

Should pest control bids include follow-up visits?

Yes. Most pest problems require at least one follow-up visit. Including 1-2 follow-ups in your bid shows customers you stand behind your work and helps close the deal.

Do I need a license number on my pest control bid?

In most states, yes. Pest control is a licensed trade, and customers (especially commercial accounts) will want to see your license number. Include it in your company information section.
