What we are (and what we aren't)
FindAPestGuy.com is a marketing and matching platform. We're based in Verona, NJ, and our entire job is making it easier for New Jersey homeowners to find a real, NJ DEP licensed pest control professional in their area — without spending hours sorting through Yelp reviews, dealing with high-pressure sales calls, or worrying about whether the guy in the truck is actually licensed.
We do not perform pest control services. We do not apply pesticides. We do not enter your home. What we do is connect you with an independent, NJ DEP licensed pesticide applicator from our partner network who handles the actual work.
Think of us the way you think of Angi, Thumbtack, or HomeAdvisor — but specialized for New Jersey pest control, and built by someone who actually lives here.
How the matching process works
You tell us what's going on
Fill out our short quote form — 30 seconds, mobile-friendly. We just need your zip code, the type of pest, and how to reach you.
We match you with a licensed local pro
We forward your details to a NJ DEP licensed exterminator in your area who handles your specific pest issue. Usually within a few hours.
The pro reaches out directly
Your matched exterminator contacts you to schedule a free on-site inspection. You decide if you want to move forward — no obligation, no pressure.
How we vet every pro in our network
Before any pest control company joins the FindAPestGuy.com network, we verify the basics that NJ homeowners shouldn't have to verify themselves:
What it costs you
Nothing. Our service is 100% free for New Jersey homeowners. We're paid by the licensed pest control professionals in our network when they take on a new customer — the same way most home-services marketplaces work.
The quote you receive from your matched exterminator is also free and no-obligation. You're never required to hire the pro we send you, and we don't share your info with anyone outside our vetted partner network.
Why we built this
The pest control industry in New Jersey has its share of unlicensed operators — people who knock on doors after a storm, post cheap ads on Craigslist, or apply restricted-use pesticides without any state authorization. They cut corners on safety, often misuse rodenticides in ways that endanger pets and children, and they vanish the moment something goes wrong.
At the same time, a lot of NJ homeowners spend hours sifting through online reviews trying to figure out who's legit — and even then, it's hard to verify whether someone is actually NJ DEP licensed without making phone calls.
FindAPestGuy.com is built for the homeowner who just wants to talk to a real, licensed local pro and move on with their day.
