Ask anyone who’s worked in pest control, and they’ll tell you—it’s not just spraying and walking away. This industry takes strategy, training, and a whole lot of patience. But from the outside? Most customers assume it’s a five-minute job with a can of bug spray.
The reality? Pest control technicians are part exterminator, part detective, and part educator. They deal with everything from roaches to raccoons, often in less-than-glamorous conditions.
So if you’ve ever hired a pest control company (or are thinking about it), here are a few things the folks crawling under your house or climbing up your attic wish you knew.

In fact, mobile detailing is one of the fastest-growing service-based businesses in the U.S.. It’s easy to see why: it’s convenient, it delivers visible results, and it taps into a growing customer base that values time, appearance, and good old-fashioned service.
Let’s explore why mobile detailing is exploding and how it’s changing the way people think about car care and small businesses.
