For pest control businesses

An AI receptionist for pest controllers whose callers are mid-panic

Nobody rings a pest controller calmly. There's a wasp nest by the back door, a snake sighting near the kids' trampoline, or the word every homeowner dreads, termites. Panicked callers don't wait through voicemail, they ring the next company. Kora answers instantly, calms the caller down by being useful, and books the treatment or inspection on the spot.

Sound familiar?

  • Panicked callers hang up on voicemail within seconds and ring a competitor
  • Termite inspection enquiries, your highest-value work, arrive as missed calls
  • Routine annual treatments are easy bookings that still interrupt your day
  • Summer brings call surges the same way heatwaves do for aircon

How a call goes

An illustrative example — every business gets its own setup.

There's a huge wasp nest right next to our back door and my son's allergic. Can someone come today?

Okay, that's one to sort quickly. Keep the door closed and stay clear of it in the meantime. Let me check what we've got today. I can do four PM this afternoon, does that work?

Questions pest control businesses ask us

Can Kora book termite inspections?

Yes, and it captures what matters: the property type, what the caller's seen, and how urgent it feels. Termite enquiries are the calls you least want going to a competitor's voicemail.

How does Kora handle callers who are panicking?

By being calm and fast. It skips the fluff, gives a simple practical instruction where appropriate, like keeping pets away, and gets a real booking made, which is what actually reassures people.

Can it manage recurring annual treatments?

Yes. Repeat customers can book their regular treatment into a genuinely free slot without you touching the phone.
