Pest control combines recurring revenue (monthly/quarterly service contracts of $40–$150) with high-ticket one-time treatments (termite treatment $500–$2,500, wildlife removal $300–$1,500). Most customers pay by card.
For a pest control company doing $20,000–$80,000/month in card sales, annual processing costs **$6,000 to $33,600**.
