Your revenue is the accounts on a monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly plan, and your risk is the chemical record you cannot produce. TradesBackbone runs pest control as service plans and routes — the pest pack renames jobs to Services and customers to Accounts, puts the chemical-use record on every stop, and orders the day by drive time.
The Pest Control pack is pre-selected when you start from this page.
5 workflows your technicians and your office share on one record. Everything below exists today.
Put an account on a Monthly, Bi-Monthly or Quarterly plan and the next service is created when it is due. Termite, mosquito and rodent programs run alongside general pest on the same account.
Group accounts by route day, then let route order propose the sequence for a technician's day with drive time per leg. Applying it is a deliberate click, so a promised window never moves without someone choosing to.
The pest pack adds a Chemical-Use Record field (product, EPA #, rate, target) to each service and puts your EPA Applicator License and State Pesticide-Applicator Cert on the compliance screen. The Service & Chemical Application Report and State Compliance Report read from those records.
A Pest treatment checklist comes with the pack. Technicians complete it on the phone and attach photos to the service, so the record of what was placed where is on the account, not in a truck.
Mark the service complete and the invoice goes out by text with a card or ACH link. Plan accounts keep a card on file. Overdue reminders, thank-you texts and review requests send automatically, 8am to 9pm local.
Choosing Pest Control at signup configures the app for pest control. It is configuration, not a separate product — you can change it in Settings.
8 starter items seeded
3, 10 or 25 users included with the plan, then $40/mo per extra user. No annual contracts, no implementation fees. Every plan starts with a free trial.
