San Antonio: long, hot summers

Insect pressure stays high most of the year, and termite swarm seasons bring call bursts.

When pest control companies miss calls

  • Techs are on routes all day
  • Seasonal swarm calls
  • Evening calls when people get home and see the problem
  • Quote requests for recurring service

About 27% of calls to home-services businesses go unanswered, and fewer than 3% of those callers leave a voicemail. Source: Invoca, 2024, industry estimates. Your numbers will differ. Run yours.

Example first text

Hi, this is San Antonio Pest Control Co.. Sorry we missed your call - our techs are out on routes. What are you seeing, and where? Reply here and we'll get back to you shortly. Reply STOP to opt out.

Example business name. You write and approve your own text during setup.

After hours in Central time

An 8 AM text is a good default. Stinging-insect calls are urgent, but they're usually handled during the day.

Texas: Texas expanded its telephone-solicitation law to cover text messages in 2025. It targets sales messages. Porchlight sends a single informational reply to someone who just called your business, never a promotion. Not legal advice.

After the job: reviews

Ask after the first treatment's follow-up visit, once the problem is clearly better.
