What does a pest control technician do?
What does a pest control technician do?
As a pest control technician, you diagnose pest problems and eliminate pests like cockroaches, termites, ants, and small rodents. Your job duties are to perform inspections of residential or commercial properties and—when you find pests—to use pesticides or other techniques to get rid of the unwanted guests. Working with chemical pesticides is a health risk, so taking safety precautions to protect yourself, your clients, and their pets is one of your primary responsibilities. During inspections or pesticide treatments, you’ll have to walk, stand, stoop, reach, bend, and crawl, sometimes in awkward positions, so you need physical strength and stamina.
