💩 Why it's ugly

Bird mites are tiny, customers are itchy, and everyone is already emotionally done by the time you arrive. You work around vents, eaves, attics, balconies, and nests that should have moved out quietly.

💰 Why it prints money

Most general providers focus on birds or insects separately, leaving a gap after nests are removed. Customers will pay for fast inspection, source removal coordination, treatment, and reassurance because invisible biting pests create urgency.

🗺️ The launch playbook 🔒

First 30 days

Register the entity and get the basic insurance sorted before anything else. Call the three biggest local operators and ask what they refuse to do — that refusal list is your launch menu. Price the first ten jobs deliberately low to collect reviews, then raise rates fifteen percent.

Days 31–60

Buy the used equipment, not the new one. The route density is what makes this profitable, so cluster your first customers within a twenty minute radius and decline anything outside it.

This is the part that makes money.
