A rat in armor is still a rat. Your home is your kingdom, and the only crown that belongs in it is yours. When the scouts arrive, the colony is already mapping your floor plan. We end the campaign before the rest of the army shows up.

Ants are predictable in a way most pests are not. The same colony enters the same way at the same hour every day. Watch one foraging line for twenty minutes and you have found their door. We are not chasing ants. We are closing the door they are walking through.

What this is

Done-for-you social media. Built only for pest control.

Most pest control accounts post like flyers. Yours will read like a magazine. Same operators, same services. Different presentation. Customers notice the difference, and so does the algorithm.

Generic. Looks like everyone else.

After

Pacific Pest Control's spring perimeter defense bundle, presented as a magazine-style home protection guide instead of a flyer. Same service, different register.

In your brand colors. About a pest you actually treat. Captioned in your voice.

Why this matters in 2026

Social activity is local SEO now. The companies your customers scroll past every week are the ones Google recommends.

Google's map pack weights consistent, local, current social activity into its ranking. Six posts a week in your zip code is a clear signal to Google that you're active, current, and the business that should surface when a homeowner searches "pest control near me."

The companies winning local pest searches in 2026 aren't the ones with the cleanest websites. They're the ones with the steadiest activity across the platforms Google watches — Instagram, Facebook, and Google Business Profile. The schedule we run is built specifically for that.

The combination

Brand-led local social media for pest control. Taste at scale.

Pest control is one of the few trades where a new company shows up in your service area every season. Most disappear inside eighteen months. A few stick. The ones that stick are the ones homeowners already recognize before they need the service.

Brand-led local social media for pest control isn't a long-tail content strategy. It's running a feed a magazine art director would sign off on, at the cadence Google rewards, week after week, in your zip code. Most agencies can do one or the other. Doing both at the same time is what taste at scale means — and it's the unfair advantage that keeps your name in front of the customer while competitors come and go.

Walk the perimeter of your house this Saturday morning. Three spots get you most of the way: where utility lines pierce the foundation, where door sweeps have worn flat, where pipes and cables enter through the siding. Twenty minutes outside saves a hundred-dollar service call in July.

Termites are older than dinosaurs by a comfortable margin. They survived the asteroid, the ice ages, and every continental shift since. The reason your treatment plan matters: you are not the first homeowner to think you would outsmart them.

A foraging ant marks any food source with a pheromone trail the rest of the colony follows within hours. Move your pantry staples, flour, sugar, oats, cereal, into airtight glass or hard plastic. You are not starving the colony. You are erasing the address.

A paper wasp nest in May is the size of a walnut and holds the queen plus a handful of workers. By August the same nest is a softball with 200 wasps inside it. The window to remove safely is now. Check the eaves on the shaded side of the house first.

The work

Pest control content has never looked so good.

See full gallery

Most pest problems start with one decision: did the outside stay outside? Every season has its entry pattern. Spring is termites and ants. Summer is wasps and spiders. Fall is mice and stink bugs. The work is the same year-round: notice what's changing on your house before they do.

Your clean kitchen still smells like food to an ant.

A mouse can fit through a pencil-width gap.

Mice feel the warm air leaking from your walls

Your fridge runs at 95°F. So do cockroach eggs.

The rotation

What a month of your feed actually looks like.

Twenty-six posts a month, across eight content types in rotation. Specialty posts (like the rat-in-armor cover) run on a strict monthly cooldown, at most one per month, so your feed has range without losing its register. The rest of the month is operator-grade editorial work.

Your reputation

The reputation took years to build. The feed can match it in two weeks.

Your trucks are clean. Your techs know what they're looking at. Your customers refer you without being asked. Then someone finds your Instagram and it looks like every other pest control account in the country. Three posts since spring, stock photos, "call us today!" captions.

You're the best on your block. Time your feed showed it.

This is what we mean when we say inspection. A flashlight, a clipboard, a moisture meter, and twenty minutes spent reading the story your baseboards are telling. The pest is the symptom. The cause is what we find.

Tap on a doorframe near your foundation. If it sounds hollow, you are already late. Termites carve galleries inside wood for two to three years before any surface damage shows. The hollow knock is the first signal most homeowners ever get.

How it works

Three steps. First drafts in 24 hours. Content on autopilot.

Onboard

Ten-minute intake. We learn your voice, your services, your local pest pressure. Connect Instagram, Facebook, and Google Business by signing into your own account — no password sharing, no security worry. Disconnect any time, one click.

Generate

Your first month of posts are drafted within 24 hours. You approve, edit, or reject — your call, every time. From there, you always have a two-week runway queued in front of you.

Post + reply

Approved posts go live on schedule. We auto-reply to comments and DMs in your voice.

See the full process

Stand outside your front door at night with the porch light off and look at the seam where the door meets the threshold. If you see daylight coming through from inside, so does every spider, mouse, and ant in the yard. A twelve-dollar strip of weatherstripping is the cheapest pest control in the world.

What gets delivered, every week.

Who's behind this

Built by an operator who couldn't find the service he wanted to buy.

Twenty years in the pest control trade. Thousands of customer relationships built one inspection at a time. Built Mantis Corp to make running a service business less of a daily fire drill, and worked with several pest control operators on their web presence along the way.

The Pest Post started when I went looking for someone to handle social media for my own company. The options were the same Canva templates every pest account in the country was already posting, or graphic in-the-field content that made the suburban moms I wanted to reach scroll past. Neither was going to work.

So I built the third option. The same content system Mantis Corp built for ops, tuned for what a pest control account actually needs: trade-credible posts that look like a magazine, not a flyer, and don't make a customer wince. Built for operators, by one.

What this would cost elsewhere

Most social-media managers cost more, deliver less, and don't know your trade.

The going rate for a pest control company to outsource social is roughly $1,500 to $2,500 a month for eight to twelve generic posts. None of it written by someone who knows the difference between a paper wasp and a yellowjacket. Our launch price is $697/mo — founding members lock in $497/mo for the life of the account.

FAQ

Real questions. Real answers.

Will the content actually be specific to pest control?

Yes. Every post references real pests, real operations, real seasonal pressure. We refuse to write generic home-services copy. It's literally the whole reason this exists.

How will I know if this is working?

Three things to watch in the first sixty days. DM volume — strangers asking questions about specific pests instead of just "how much?" Recognition in your service area — customers and neighbors mentioning they saw a post before they booked. And the weekly recap email, which tracks posts published, conversations received, replies sent, and any threads flagged for your attention. None of those are vanity metrics. They're the leading indicators that turn into booked work.

What if I've tried social before and it didn't work?

Most owners who say this tried one of two things: generic templates posted four times then forgotten, or a freelancer who knew marketing but not pest control. Neither builds the consistency or the trade credibility that moves homeowners. Six branded posts a week in your zip code, written by a system built specifically for pest, is a different mechanic. The thing that didn't work before wasn't really a strategy. It was a half-built one.

What if I hate a post?

Reject it. You get 10 free regenerations a month, no questions asked. For carousels, you can regenerate individual slides instead of the whole post, so one off-key slide doesn't waste a regen. If you're still not happy after that, edit the post yourself in the dashboard, or we'll fix it for you.

Do I need to send you photos or content?

No. Every image is generated for you — magazine covers, documentary stills, evidence shots, all of it. The brand setup form is the only thing we ask you to fill out, and it takes about ten minutes. You're welcome to send your own photos if you want them used, but nothing about the service waits on you producing assets.

Do I have to approve every post before it goes out?

By default, yes. You see every post before it publishes. If you want auto-publish later, you can flip that on per-platform.

What platforms do you post to?

Instagram, Facebook, and Google Business Profile. Each platform gets a properly-formatted version of the same post — 4:5 portrait for Instagram and Facebook, 4:3 landscape for GBP so it doesn't crop. No awkward cross-posting.

What if a customer comments something nasty?

We have a separate framework for that. Never delete. Move offline. Respond with grace. Your call whether we auto-reply or just flag for you.

How is this different from hiring a freelancer or a VA?

A freelancer is one person doing their best to fake credibility in a trade they don't know. A VA is templates and scheduling, not original content. We're a system built only for pest control — the prompts, the brand register, the post-type rotation, the cadence Google rewards. One person can't out-throughput six trade-credible posts a week, every week, for a year. We can.

How do I subscribe? Do I need to talk to anyone first?

No. You can subscribe in under a minute via the subscribe button above. Once you pay, we email you a ten-minute brand setup form. Once you finish that, we draft your first two weeks of content within twenty-four hours. No sales call required, though we're happy to chat if you want to.

Can I cancel?

Anytime. Month-to-month or annual, no contract lock-in. If we ever stop being worth what you're paying, you should leave.
