Full Job Description

Company Description

- Must have a current Nuisance Class A Wildlife Control Permit for 2026

- You're comfortable at heights, on roofs, using tall ladders, and in attic spaces. This is ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY to acquire this position.

- The majority of this job is wildlife trapping, evictions, and performing exclusion.

- You want to be paid based on your effort and skill, rather than an arbitrary pay scale based on how long you've been with a company. (We pay you out the gate what you're worth, if you become worth more over time you'll be paid more). Many opportunities to increase income on a monthly basis.

- You want to be a part of a family owned company that will know your name & invest in building a future for yourself and your family.

Average Pay:

$25/hour MINIMUM if some training is required.

$30-$35/hour for “set it and forget it” operators.

Pay is based on skill, experience, drive, and efficiency. We are hiring rockstars who will drive revenue. The more money the company makes, the more money you make - because that's the way it should work.

Benefits:

- Truck & equipment provided (truck goes home with you)

- Base pay + bi-monthly bonuses available.

- Cell phone

- Opportunity to have a career. We are growing rapidly and expanding extensively, opportunities to 'move up' will be available to those that are a good fit.

- We aren't babysitters. If you're responsible, you'll make good money as a W-2 employee without a manager breathing down your neck. If we can't trust you, you likely won't last long.

Role Description

This role is for a full time Wildlife Control Operator. Class A Wildlife Control permit through IDNR is required. The vast majority of the day to day work is exclusion, which is structural work on the exterior of a customer's house. The majority of all work takes place 20' off the ground or higher. You will need to be able to handle ladders, up to and including a 40' ladder. The next most frequent work performed will be wildlife trapping services.

To Recap: This position will require, but is not limited to: animal trapping, structural exclusion, and a HIGH percentage of work at heights. If you are not comfortable on a ladder or a roof, this isn’t the role for you.
