Now Hiring in Tampa for part-time pest control positions with on-the-job training provided

Safari Pest Control, LLC is hiring for a part-time position in Tampa, and experience in pest control is a plus but not required. If you're looking for work that combines technical skill with customer service and offers the opportunity to learn a skilled trade, this role provides hands-on training in pest identification, treatment application, and property assessment. The position serves residential and commercial clients across the Tampa area, and the work varies daily based on service calls and seasonal pest activity.


The role involves learning to identify pest issues, apply treatments safely and effectively, and communicate with property owners about prevention and follow-up care. Training covers proper handling of treatment products, understanding pest behavior patterns, and recognizing conditions that lead to infestations.

What the Position Involves

You'll be working alongside experienced technicians who will train you in pest identification, treatment methods, and customer interaction. The job includes both indoor and outdoor work, travel to multiple properties throughout the day, and physical tasks such as carrying equipment, accessing crawl spaces, and applying treatments in various weather conditions. Training covers safety protocols, proper equipment use, and Florida-specific pest behavior patterns that affect treatment timing and approach.


After training, you'll notice that you can recognize pest entry points that most property owners overlook, understand why certain treatments work better in Florida's humidity, and explain to customers what they're seeing and why specific steps prevent future problems. The work becomes more efficient as you learn which pests are most active during different seasons and how to adjust treatment plans based on property conditions.


The part-time schedule offers flexibility, though peak seasons for certain pests may require additional hours. You'll learn to work independently once training is complete, but support remains available for complex cases or unfamiliar situations. The position provides practical skills that transfer across the pest control industry.

Questions About the Pest Control Position

Applicants often ask about the work environment, training process, and what a typical day involves before applying.

  • What does the training process include?

    Training begins with ride-alongs where you observe service calls and learn pest identification, then progresses to supervised treatments where you apply techniques under direct guidance, and eventually moves to independent work with ongoing support for complex situations.

  • What kind of schedule does part-time mean?

    The position typically involves several days per week with shifts that align with customer service windows, and scheduling can flex around other commitments while still meeting service demand during Tampa's peak pest seasons.

  • Do I need any specific certifications to start?

    You don't need certifications to begin because the company provides the training required for Florida pest control licensing, and you'll work under supervision while completing necessary certification steps.

  • What does the physical work involve?

    The job requires carrying equipment weighing up to 50 pounds, accessing tight spaces like attics and crawl spaces, and working outdoors in Tampa's heat and humidity throughout the year.

  • Why would someone without experience be considered?

    Pest control skills are learned on the job, and the company has found that training new technicians often produces employees who follow protocols carefully and develop strong customer service habits from the start.

Safari Pest Control, LLC is looking for reliable applicants who are comfortable with physical work and interested in learning a skilled trade. Call 813-703-4673 to discuss the position and determine if your availability aligns with current scheduling needs.
