Pest Control Flyers: Exterminate Doubt and Attract Local Customers
Why Flyers Are a Pest Control Power Play
When pests invade, homeowners want fast, reliable help—and they often reach for a flyer tucked into the mailbox or pinned on the community board rather than scrolling endlessly online.
Flyers put your service in their hands just as panic sets in: a single appearance of “Termites? Rodents? We Can Help!” on a bright, professional flyer gives you an edge over faceless search results.
So what is a flyer’s unique benefit for pest control businesses? It’s instant trust and local visibility exactly when people need you most.
What to Highlight on Your Pest Control Flyer
Your flyer must convey credibility, speed, and safety in a glance.
Include:
Headline: “Fast. Effective. Local Pest Control”
Services: termite treatment, rodent removal, ant/roach control, preventive inspections
Credentials: licensed technicians, eco-friendly products, satisfaction guarantee
Offer: “$50 off your first treatment with this flyer” or “Free home inspection—mention flyer”
CTA: “Call now for same-day service”, “Scan to book online”, or “Show this flyer to redeem”

Best Timing for Your Pest Control Flyer Campaign
Pests strike year-round—but your marketing can ride seasonal patterns:
Spring (April–May): initial ant and termite season
Summer (June–August): increased flying insects and rodents
Fall (September–October): rodents seeking indoor shelter
Pre-Holiday (November): homeowners preparing for guests

“Free inspection & quote—mention this flyer”
“Buy one room, get the second 50% off”
