ABOUT

THE ROLE
No pest control experience? No problem. We'll train you. BBD Pest Services provides respectful, responsible and responsive pest control to homes, businesses and institutions across Atlantic Canada. We pioneered canine bed bug detection in the region in 2009.

As a Pest Control Technician, you'll be on the road every day, solving real problems for real customers.

You'll work independently in your own company vehicle, with the backing of our General Manager and a supportive team.

We hire for attitude, integrity, reliability and a willingness to learn. If you take pride in doing the job right, we'll teach you the rest.
