← Wildlife Exclusion Bid Calculator
This calculator vs. PestPac
Two different shapes: PestPac is an account-based platform for running a wildlife or pest control company's whole operation, including scheduling and billing an exclusion job once it is priced. This page is a free, private worksheet for one question — what should this exclusion job cost, given its trap days, height, devices and warranty, before you send the bid.
What each tool is for
PestPac, sold by WorkWave, is a field service management platform used by pest and nuisance wildlife control businesses, from single-truck operators to national multi-branch companies, to run CRM and customer records, scheduling and routing, billing and payments, marketing, reporting, and a technician mobile app, tied to one account used on an ongoing paid basis across every job the company runs. PestPac's own site is not reachable from this session to confirm today's specific feature list, plan names, or pricing, so only its well-documented identity and category are stated here: nothing about it is invented, and no dollar figure for it appears on this page. Public descriptions of that scheduling and billing software describe routing, dispatching and invoicing a job once its scope and price already exist; none describe working out what a wildlife exclusion job should cost from trap-check visits, height tier, one-way devices, decontamination and warranty reserve before you quote it — which is the one thing this calculator does.
This calculator does none of what PestPac does. It does not store a customer record, build a route across a season, or invoice anyone. It takes one exclusion job's crew size and burdened wage, miles and drive minutes, the days traps stay out and checks per day, linear feet of exclusion at its actual height tier — ground level up through a lift — one-way devices and the trip back to pull them, attic decontamination and insulation replacement by the square foot, disposal, and a reserve sized against a multi-year warranty, and turns that into the walk-away price, the bid at a target margin, the visit count, and the price per crew hour — plus, if you already have a price on the table, a check against that walk-away floor and a comparison against the flat removal fee the customer is shopping. It runs free in any browser, keeps no account, and uploads nothing you type.
| Question | Where to answer it |
|---|---|
| I need to store customer records, route crews, and bill customers for wildlife or pest jobs across my whole business. | PestPac, or a comparable field service platform — running that ongoing operation is not something this calculator does. |
| What should I charge for this exclusion job, given its trap days, height tier, devices, decontamination and warranty? | This calculator — free, instant, private, no account. |
| How much do five days of daily trap checks and a two-story harness job actually add over the flat "removal fee" a customer found in a search result? | This calculator's visit count and height-tier multiplier, not a flat per-job price. |
| Is the price I'm about to quote still above my walk-away cost once the warranty reserve is in it? | This calculator's walk-away price and margin check. |
| I already have jobs priced and need to route, bill and renew customers across many stops, on a schedule, over a season. | PestPac — built as an ongoing, account-based platform for exactly that job. |
| How does the math behind a wildlife exclusion bid actually work? | This calculator's own pricing walkthrough. |
| Do I need to create an account or sign up to use the tool? | This calculator: no. PestPac's tools are used through a paid account. |
Most wildlife control operators get different value from each: PestPac (or a comparable field service platform) for running customers, routes and billing across an ongoing business as an account, and a private calculator like this one for an instant, no-login answer to what one exclusion job should cost from its trap days, height and warranty before a business system is involved. This page's own figures are a pricing model, not a lead record, a scheduled job, or a signed warranty.
This tool needs no account and no sign-in: it is a static page, the arithmetic runs in your browser, and once it has loaded it keeps working with the connection off.
Common questions
Should I use this calculator or PestPac?
They do different jobs, and a wildlife control operator of any size will likely end up touching both. PestPac is a field service management platform built for pest and wildlife control businesses and sold by WorkWave as an ongoing subscription, used to run CRM and customer records, scheduling and routing, billing and payments, marketing, and a technician mobile app across a whole operation. This calculator does one narrower thing: starting from crew size and burdened wage, miles and drive minutes, the number of days traps stay out and checks per day, linear feet of exclusion work at its actual height tier, one-way devices and the trip back to pull them, attic decontamination and insulation replacement by square foot, disposal, and a reserve against a multi-year warranty, it turns that into the walk-away price, the bid at a target margin, the visit count, the price per crew hour, and a comparison against the flat removal fee the customer is shopping, before any of it touches a business-management system. It runs free in any browser, keeps no account, and uploads nothing you type. An operator already scheduling routes and billing customers across many stops is better served by PestPac or a comparable field service platform; an operator who wants an instant, private answer to what one exclusion job should cost from its trap days, height and warranty before opening a business system is in the right place here.
