Wildlife Control Pros — How Are You Structuring Trap Jobs & Follow-Ups?

I run a wildlife trapping company in Southern California, and I’m curious how others in the industry are structuring their services inside Jobber.

 

Right now, we separate our jobs into:

 

Initial inspection & trap setup

Follow-up trap service visits

Per-animal removal charges

 

This has helped us keep pricing clear and avoid charging customers for animals that haven’t been caught yet.

 

For those doing wildlife or similar service work:

 

How are you structuring your pricing and follow-ups?

Are you bundling visits or charging per service?

 

Always looking to improve systems and learn from others in the field.

    If there are any Wildlife Control Operators, please discuss how you use Jobber for your operations. Thanks.

    Hey Trapperjohn​ I do some wildlife but mostly work with another small company that I am happy to share work with. We usually charge once the work had been completed. We have an upfront cost for removal, an upfront cost for exclusion and also for trapping.

    If I am just send the invoice, I don't have to make any service appointments but if I did I would make sure it is a reoccurring service, change the frequency to every day for one week then add or subtract days if the animal has be caught or removed. It's good to have reminders in your schedule just in case.
