    Wildlife Exclusion Technician (Physical / Skilled Trade / Career Track)

    Jacksonville, FL Coastal Wildlife & Pest Services

    This is not a typical pest control job.

    If you want easy work, air conditioning, or to “give it a try and see,” stop reading now. This role is for someone who wants a real, hands-on trade, takes pride in hard work, and is looking for a long-term career with advancement, not a temporary paycheck.

    The Reality of This Job (Read This Carefully)

    You will:

    Climb roofs in the Florida summer heat

    Work in attics and crawl spaces

    Carry materials, tools, and equipment

    Use ladders daily

    Perform detailed exclusion and light construction work

    Get dirty, sweaty, and tired — and still do quality work

    This job is physically demanding. It is uncomfortable at times. And it is not for everyone.

    But for the right person, it is incredibly rewarding.

    Who This Job Is For

    This role is a great fit if you:

    Enjoy working with your hands and solving real problems

    Like seeing clear results from your work at the end of the day

    Take pride in doing difficult work the right way

    Want to build a career, not bounce between jobs

    Are dependable, coachable, and mentally tough

    Prefer working in the field rather than behind a desk

    You do not need prior wildlife experience. You do need the right attitude, work ethic, and physical capability.

    We can teach skills. We cannot teach grit.

    What You’ll Be Doing

    As a Wildlife Exclusion Technician, you’ll focus on permanent solutions, not quick fixes.

    Your responsibilities include:

    Inspecting homes and businesses for wildlife activity and structural entry points

    Performing professional wildlife exclusion work (roof returns, soffits, vents, crawl spaces, attics, etc.)

    Using hand and power tools to seal and fortify structures

    Setting and removing wildlife traps as needed

    Educating homeowners on what was done and how to prevent future issues

    Following a structured daily schedule prepared by our office

    Communicating job updates clearly through our systems

    Participating in a rotating on-call schedule (typically one weekend per month)

    Most days you’ll work independently, but you’re never on an island — our team supports you.

    Physical & Practical Requirements (Non-Negotiable)

    To be successful in this role, you must:

    Be comfortable working on roofs, ladders, in attics, and crawl spaces

    Be able to lift and carry 50+ lbs repeatedly

    Work safely in heat, humidity, and confined spaces

    Have a valid driver’s license and clean driving record

    Follow safety procedures and company standards consistently

    Communicate professionally with customers and teammates

    If any of the above is a dealbreaker, this is not the right role — and that’s okay.

    Pay, Benefits & Growth

    We take care of people who take care of the job.

    What we offer:

    Competitive pay based on experience and performance

    Company vehicle, cell phone, and most tools provided

    Health insurance reimbursement up to $200/month after 6 months

    Paid holidays and vacation time

    Performance incentives and bonuses (including 5-star review bonuses)

    Extra income opportunities through emergency calls and weekend pickups

    Ongoing paid training and skill development

    Clear advancement paths into Senior Technician, Lead Technician, and Leadership roles

    Quarterly team outings and events

    This company is growing. People who perform well and want more responsibility move up.
