Callers may not know what they have seen.
Preserve their description instead of turning it into a confident pest identification.

WHY THE DETAILS MATTER
Different calls. Different decisions.
New enquiries and return visits need different context.
Ask whether this relates to existing service before creating the callback brief.
Treatment questions can become promises.
Keep inspection, treatment choice and any guarantee with your qualified team.

Decisions your team keeps
Do not identify pests with certainty, prescribe treatment or promise eradication. Staff assess the situation.
THE NEXT SYSTEM IN YOUR WORKFLOW
A prepared brief, with a path to your existing tools.
A future field-service connection should distinguish new inspections from follow-up visits linked to existing work.
CRM and scheduling connections are planned. Tell us the app you use so we can assess the connection, required fields and approval rules.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Before you get started.
What if the caller cannot identify the pest?
Record what they saw and where. Identification and treatment decisions belong to the pest-control team.
Can repeat-service calls be handled differently?
The intake can capture existing-customer status and a general reference. Staff verify the prior work and any service entitlement.
