Rodent exclusion and wildlife removal job pricing. Free, no signup.
Starting points, not averages. Adjust every number to your market.
A 12-month warranty is not free. If a share of jobs get a callback, each job quietly carries part of that cost. Price it in or the warranty prices you.
Enter your gut quote and see what it actually pays you per hour.
Wildlife exclusion quotes die on the flat seal-the-house fee. Twelve entry points, roofline ladder work, follow-up visits, and a warranty callback are not one number. Start with your bar (75), a daily take-home goal, profit margin percent (25), and a minimum job fee ($500). Pick a job preset: Mouse exclusion, Rat roofline, or Squirrel removal, each filling entry points, minutes per point, materials, roofline minutes, one-way doors, traps, follow-up visits, inspection fee and minutes, drive time, miles, and the callback rate with hours, all editable. The inspection card has a waived-if-hired toggle, because a waived fee is real lost revenue. The warranty trap card prices the expected callback percent times callback hours into every job, and shows how many dollars of warranty labor each job quietly carries. Results show own hours, materials, vehicle cost, warranty cost, true cost, and the recommended quote (cost plus margin, rounded to $25, never below the minimum), with effective dollars per hour against your bar. Verdicts are PRICED RIGHT, CLOSE, BUT LEAKING, WORKING TOO CHEAP, or LOSING MONEY. The gut check grades your instinct quote, and the day planner turns your goal into jobs.
Example only, not typical pricing. Rat roofline at a $75 bar with 25 percent margin: 12 entry points x 25 min = 300, plus 60 roofline, 30 trap setup, 4 visits x 20 = 80, 45 inspection, 40 drive = 555 minutes = 9.25 own hours. Labor = 693.75; materials = 12 x 8 + 1 x 45 + 6 x 12 = $213; vehicle = 30 x 0.67 = $20.10; warranty = 15 percent x 2 x 75 = $22.50. True cost = $949.35. Recommended quote = ceil(949.35 x 1.25 / 25) x 25 = $1,200. Revenue after the waived $99 inspection = $1,101. Take-home = 1,101 - 213 - 20.10 - 22.50 = $845.40, so the effective rate = 845.40 / 9.25 = $91.39 per hour, which clears the bar: PRICED RIGHT. A $900 gut quote would pay $58.96 per hour and leave $300 on the table. At $151.65 profit per job, the planner says 6 jobs and 55.5 hours to hit an $800 goal, which is more than a 10-hour day, so the fix is bigger jobs or a better quote.
Why is the inspection fee waived, not deleted?
Because a waived inspection is real money you earned and gave up. The toggle subtracts it from revenue so the true rate stays honest.
What is the warranty trap card?
The expected callback percent times callback hours, priced into every job. At a 15 percent rate and 2 callback hours, each job quietly carries $22.50 of warranty labor.
How are follow-up visits priced?
Number of visits times minutes per visit, at your bar. Trap-check trips are the visits everyone donates, so they get their own line.
Should doors and traps be separate lines?
Yes. One-way doors and traps are materials you buy, and this job shows them separately from the per-point sealant work.
What does the over-10-hour flag mean?
If the planner's jobs times your own hours crosses 10 hours a day, it tells you to price better or book bigger jobs instead of stacking more.
