Vendor by vendor
What each one publishes, what stands out, and the catch to check before you sign.
GorillaDesk
Best value for 1–5 route pest shops that want published prices
Price: Basic $49/mo, Pro $99/mo, Growth $149/mo for 1 route. Basic adds $50/mo each for routes 2–3, then $30/mo each from route 4; Pro and Growth add $50/mo per route.
- Published, route-based pricing: you can work out the bill before a sales call
- Chemical-use records are on the cheapest plan
- Customer portal, online booking and QuickBooks Online sync on Pro
Watch for: Basic routing is limited to 25 stops at a time; drive-time routing, subscription billing and QuickBooks sync need Pro. SMS is extra ($5/mo plus credits).
Pocomos
Pest-only shops with several techs that hate per-seat fees
Price: By active and on-hold customers: $109/mo (0–20), $159 (21–50), $239 (51–300), $275 (301–500); 501+ is $275 plus $0.16 per customer over 500.
- Add technicians and office staff without paying per seat
- Pest-specific: chemical logs, device tracking, WDO/WDI forms
- Published SMS pricing ($4/mo platform fee plus $0.04 per text)
Watch for: The bill climbs with your customer count, so a solo operator with 200 recurring accounts pays $239/mo where GorillaDesk Basic is $49.
Jobber
Shops where pest control is one of several home services
Price: Core $29/mo billed yearly or $49/mo monthly, 1 user. Connect from $99/mo yearly ($139 monthly), Grow from $149/mo yearly ($199 monthly). Extra users $29/mo.
- Polished quoting, invoicing, online booking and client hub
- QuickBooks Online and Xero sync, 100+ app integrations
- Clear published pricing and a trial with no card
Watch for: Not built for pest control specifically. Check how you’d record EPA registration numbers, rates and target pests before you commit.
Housecall Pro
Owner-operators focused on online booking, reviews and marketing
Price: Basic $59/mo billed yearly ($79 monthly), 1 user. Essentials $149/mo yearly ($189 monthly), 5 users. MAX $299/mo yearly ($329 monthly), 8 users, plus $35/mo per extra user.
- Online booking, review management and consumer financing on every plan
- Recurring service plans and route optimization on MAX
- No long-term contract

QuoteIQ
Budget-minded operators who want many AI tools in one app
Price: Essentials $29.99/mo (1 user), Beginner $99.99 (2), Pro $199.99 (4), Elite $299.99 (10), Max $699.99 (20). Extra users $25/mo. Yearly billing costs 10 months’ price.
- Cheap entry plan with estimates, invoices, scheduling and online payments
- Route optimization and inventory on Elite ($299.99)
- Yearly billing saves two months
Watch for: AI features run on monthly credits that don’t roll over, and the trial needs a card.

Price: Not published. Small Business, Professional and Enterprise packages are quote-only (“speak with a consultant”).
- Deep pest-specific modules: chemical tracking, termite, commercial and multi-unit

FieldRoutes (ServiceTitan)
Growing pest and lawn companies scaling routes and sales teams
Price: Not published. Growth and Corporate packages; the monthly subscription is “based on the number of active customers.”
- Pest and lawn focus with route optimization and door-to-door sales tools
- Sentricon listed on both packages
- Marketing add-on through ServiceTitan
Watch for: FieldRoutes says it has no free trial because each setup is customized. Price depends on customer count, so ask for the price at 2x your size, not just year one.
Briostack
Pest and lawn shops that want concurrent-user licensing
Price: Not published. Custom pricing by business size, with concurrent licensing by active users. Its add-on price list is public (SMS $0.04 per text, calls $0.04 per minute, plus migration and custom-document fees).
- Founded by a pest control company; pest and lawn in one system
- Concurrent licensing can suit seasonal staffing
- Public API
Watch for: Read the public add-on list (briostack.com/additionalpricing) before signing: migrations, custom documents and backups are billed separately.
How to choose pest control software
1. Know what you’re billed on
GorillaDesk charges per route; Pocomos and FieldRoutes charge by active customers; Jobber, Housecall Pro and QuoteIQ charge by plan, with users included. A 2-truck shop with 400 quarterly customers can get very different bills under each model. The calculator does the math for the five vendors with public prices.
2. Check the records your state requires
Most states want a record for every application: product name, EPA registration number, amount or dilution, target pest, site and the applicator’s license number, kept for 2 or 3 years depending on the state. Make sure the software captures every field. Our state-by-state guide links the official rules.
3. Price recurring billing and routing
Recurring quarterly service is the core of most pest businesses. Check which plan includes subscription billing and real route optimization: on GorillaDesk that’s Pro, and on Housecall Pro recurring service plans and route optimization are on MAX.
4. Ask quote-only vendors the same five questions
What’s the monthly price at your customer count, and at twice that count? What are the onboarding and migration fees? How long is the contract, and how do you cancel? Which modules cost extra? Get the answers in writing.
5. Run the trial on a real week
Enter a real route, record a real application and send a real invoice. Jobber and Housecall Pro trials need no card; QuoteIQ’s does.
How we compared
FAQ
What is the cheapest pest control software with chemical tracking?
Of the vendors that publish prices, GorillaDesk Basic is $49 a month for one route and lists material (chemical) tracking and reporting on that plan, per its pricing page checked October 17, 2026. Pocomos starts at $109 a month for up to 20 active customers and also lists chemical tracking.
Is there free pest control software?
None of the eight vendors here offers a free plan. If you’re just starting out, a paper or spreadsheet application log can meet your state’s record rules. Our free state records guide includes a printable log template.
Does Jobber work for pest control?
It can schedule, quote, invoice and take payments for pest jobs. Its pricing page doesn’t list a pest-specific chemical application log, so check that its checklists or custom fields can capture what your state requires: product, EPA registration number, amount, target pest and applicator license.
How much do PestPac, FieldRoutes and Briostack cost?
None of them publish prices. PestPac and Briostack quote by package or license; FieldRoutes says its subscription is based on your number of active customers. Ask each for a written quote that lists modules, onboarding fees and contract length.
