Entry Level Pest Control Technician - Candler, NC

Who We Are

Killingsworth Environmental is much more than a pest control company. We are a team of professionals committed to providing quality pest control solutions and safe treatment options, and we want you! At Killingsworth Environmental, we have the backing of an international company, but we operate like a small business and care about our employees.

As a Pest Control Technician at Killingsworth Environmental, you’ll play a crucial role in maintaining the health and safety of our client’s properties by effectively managing pest infestations. We’re seeking those who prioritize customers, embrace learning opportunities, and are at ease with outdoor work.

Your day is filled with helping our customers live pest‑free. You will conduct inspections of residential properties to identify pest infestations, entry points, and conducive conditions. Next, you’ll create pest‑management plans that fit each client’s needs, ensuring effective treatment and prevention strategies. You’ll use your pest‑control toolkit of chemical treatments, traps, and exclusion techniques to solve pest problems. Customer satisfaction is important, so you will educate clients on pest‑prevention practices and provide recommendations for a pest‑free environment.

Documenting your service activities and keeping detailed records of treatment plans, materials used, and client interactions is a job requirement.

• High school diploma or GED and at least 3 years of driving experience, must be at least 21 years of age, and a valid driver’s license.
• Previous experience in pest control, construction, plumbing, or HVAC fields is highly desirable.
• Proficient with computers and smartphones.
• Good communication and customer‑service skills.
• Willingness to obtain necessary pest‑control certifications and licenses (if not already held).

You must be able to lift up to 25 pounds at a time comfortably, work in extreme temperatures (hot and cold), safely operate equipment, and go into large and small crawlspaces.

We provide a competitive pay package, paid training, ongoing professional development, a retirement savings plan, paid time off, holiday pay, a company vehicle, a company phone, and a full benefits package that includes medical, dental, vision, and a complimentary life insurance policy.
