OVERLAND PARK, KS, US
$16-$18 an hour
Temporary

We get it. You have options when it comes to finding a new career. When you put on a Mosquito Joe uniform, you become part of the family a group of people committed to excellent customer service and passionate about making the outdoors a place that’s fun for everyone.

No experience is needed. We will train you and help get you licensed so you can have a distinguished career as a General Laborer.

The duration of a mosquito season in our region is from March to late October / early November. This allows you to maximize your work / life balance and spend time on other passions.

We are not a standard, run-of-the-mill pest control company. We have it so much better. We only treat outdoor pests like mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas no crawl spaces, no attics, and no scary sheds to deal with.

Instead, you get to work outside, drive a sweet company ride, and get a quick workout. You will make some bugs take a long nap and leave the customer to make fun memories outside again!

This truly is one of the best mosquito control jobs on the planet and if you are ready to work outdoors while traveling locally, and love helping people, apply today! You could be the next neighborhood hero!

Your Mission if You Choose to Accept It - Responsibilities as a General Laborer

  • Conquering Mosquitoes Yep, you are there to wage war on mosquitoes and other pesky insects that can ruin outdoor fun. Our customers depend on you to remove and repel these enemies from their yards and property.
  • Doing It with Style As the face of the Mosquito Joe brand, you bring professionalism by following our Mosquito Joe process.

In addition, you go above and beyond to deliver an unforgettable customer service experience.

Communicating with the Local Office You are the boots on the ground but will be in close communication with the office.

This is key for making sure you have the right supplies to do the job and ensuring you know which property to treat!

This Mosquito Control Job is For You If

  • You love being outside.
  • You would rather be physically active than stuck behind a desk.
  • You enjoy variety. Every property is different, with different problems to solve.
  • You value working independently and are ready to use your excellent communication skills when you have the opportunity.
  • You enjoy seasonal work. This is the type of job where you work hard for a few months of the year and can do something else the rest of the time.

To Succeed in this Role as a General Laborer

  • Always bring your A-game. Remember, you are always on a public stage. You might think no one is home or watching, but you might impress someone with your pest control professionalism!
  • Take the training seriously. You will learn the proper guidelines for using the products, and we will even help you get licensed where required.
  • Stay on schedule. We will give you the schedule and timing for the day.
  • Do it right the first time. You do not want the customer to call you back out to do it over.
  • Leave the whining at home. Some days the work will be hard. It will be hot. You will not want to work. Then your work ethic will kick in, and you will show up with a smile.
  • Think observantly and creatively when assessing each unique property. Every property is different, with different problems to solve.
  • Ditch the attitude. We expect you to follow the rules, take direction, and receive constructive feedback.

  • You must be able to lift and carry a backpack, which weighs 65 lbs. (This will be your strength training workout.)
  • You must be able to walk with a 65 lb. backpack for a lengthy period of time. (This will be your cardio workout.)
  • You must wear protective gear and a uniform. (You will be protecting yourself while looking good in uniform.)
  • You must be able to handle the summer heat. (It is like being paid to go to the sauna.)
  • You must not have moral qualms about being a pest assassin.
  • You must commit to working for us a minimum of 3 months. (We are not your side gig.)
  • You cannot take leave during the first 45 days of employment.
  • Outside employment is not permitted without our written approval. (We need to ensure you fulfill your work obligations to us.)

The pay range for this position is $16.00 to $18.00 an hour and depends on whether you have prior experience in this or other similar mosquito or pest control positions.

What we have to offer :

  • No nights, limited weekends, and holidays - Work hard during the week so that you can enjoy nights, weekends, and holidays with your friends and family.
