Why One Pest Sighting Costs a Small Business More

A large chain can absorb a bad review. A local business can’t. Prevention costs much less than winning back customers.

  • One pest seen by a customer can become a one-star review that stays online for year
  • For bakeries, cafés, and caterers, pests can mean trouble with health inspections
  • Mice and cockroaches damage inventory, supplies, and packaging
  • Running a larger store? See our Retail Pest Control page.

From one family business to another

We know what it’s like to run a business where every customer counts and every dollar matters. You don’t have a facilities department, and you shouldn’t need one to keep pests out. Our small business pest control program keeps it simple:

A local team. Our technicians live and work in Middle Tennessee, and a real person answers the phone.

Service reports you can keep for your records, your landlord, or your insurance.

Callbacks between visits at no extra cost, backed by our Whatever It Takes Guarantee.

Small businesses in older buildings

Many of Middle Tennessee’s favorite local shops are in older buildings, on historic main streets in Franklin, Gallatin, Lebanon, Murfreesboro, and Columbia, and in older strip centers across Nashville. Older buildings have more gaps, shared walls, and hidden spaces where pests move between businesses. We focus on sealing entry points and working with neighboring businesses when pests come from next door.

Tips for small business owners

  • Keep back doors closed, and add door sweeps if you can see daylight underneath.
  • Store supplies and inventory off the floor, in sealed containers when possible.
  • Break down delivery boxes and take them out the same day.
  • Empty trash at closing, especially in breakrooms and restrooms.
  • Report pest sightings right away, with the date, time, and location.

How our commercial program works

  • Free inspection. We inspect your back rooms, restrooms, storage, entry points, and the exterior, and look for pest activity, moisture, and gaps.
  • Written plan and price. You get a pest management plan built for your business, with a clear schedule and one invoice.
  • Scheduled service. We service around your business hours, before opening, after close, or on weekends.
  • Reports and callbacks. You get written records after every visit, and callbacks between visits are included.

Our commercial division is led by James Hawkins, Regional Commercial General Manager, who has more than 20 years with U.S. Pest, holds Tennessee licenses in pest control, termite control, and public health pest control, and is LEED certified.

Is commercial pest control affordable for a small business?

Yes. Most small business plans start between $75 and $125 per month, depending on the size of your space. After a free inspection, you get a written quote with no surprises.

Do I need a contract?

No. We don’t require a long-term contract. Most of our commercial clients have stayed with us for years.

Can you come before we open or after we close?

Yes. We schedule around your hours so customers never see us.

Will I have the same technician?

Whenever possible, yes. Your technician gets to know your building, your business, and what’s worked before.

What if I see a pest between visits?

Call us. Callbacks between scheduled visits are included under our Whatever It Takes Guarantee, and we respond within 24 hours.

My business shares walls with other shops. Can you still keep pests out?

Yes. We seal entry points on your side, treat shared walls where pests travel, and can work with your landlord or neighbors if the source is next door.

Do you remove wasp nests from signs and awnings?

Yes. Wasp and hornet nests are included in our small business service.

How often should a small business be serviced?

Most small businesses are serviced monthly, which keeps prevention consistent and catches problems early. We recommend a schedule after the first inspection.

Is pest control safe for my customers and pets?

Yes. We use targeted treatments, follow label directions, and service when customers aren’t present. Pet groomers and pet stores can ask us about pet-friendly options.

How do I get started?

Call our Commercial Regional Office at 615-757-6710 or request a free inspection. We’ll walk your space, explain what we find, and give you a written plan and price.
