New-customer lead capture
Most pest calls are new business. Agents run your qualifying script — pest type, property type, severity and history — so your office receives a lead it can price and schedule rather than a name and number.
- Pest identified by the caller and where it was seen
- Single-family, multi-unit or commercial property
- How long the problem has been present
- Previous treatments by you or another company
Service-area qualification before booking
Nothing wastes a route like a job outside the territory. We check the address against your service map first and, when a caller is outside it, follow the wording you provide instead of booking.
- ZIP code and city verification
- Territory routing across multiple branches
- Defined message for out-of-area callers
Scheduling and rescheduling existing customers
Recurring-service customers call constantly to move an appointment, ask when the technician is coming or request an extra visit between treatments. Those calls do not need your office manager.
- Reschedule and cancellation requests
- Between-service callback or retreatment requests
- Arrival window questions
- Account and billing questions taken as messages
Urgent pest situations
Some calls need faster attention than a routine booking: stinging insects near an entrance, a rodent inside a restaurant, bed bugs before a move-in. Your rules decide which ones get flagged.
- Wasp, hornet and bee activity near entryways
- Rodent sightings in food-service or healthcare settings
- Bed bug reports before a tenant move-in
- Commercial accounts under inspection deadlines
Seasonal call volume
Spring and the first warm weeks produce more calls in a day than winter produces in a week. Overflow answering keeps that volume off voicemail, with AI receptionist backup coverage adding continuity during spikes.
- Spring and summer surge coverage
- Overflow when your office lines are full
- Evening and weekend lead capture
Commercial and multi-family accounts
Property managers, restaurants and facilities contacts follow their own intake path, including site contacts, access windows and documentation requirements.
- Authorized contact verification
- Unit numbers and building access details
- Documentation or inspection-report requests noted
