⚠️ The Challenge

A pest control company in Rives Junction, Michigan signed with a big named web design company at $280/month for a new website. After more than a month of waiting, there was still no live website. That company was building a bloated 30-40 page site with a complicated pop-out navigation menu that didn't fit the pest control industry at all.

The client did his own research, studying how the biggest names in pest control — Terminix, Orkin — structure their websites. The industry standard is simple: service types, service areas, contact info. Clean and functional. Not a 40-page maze with layered navigation menus.

He wanted a site that was easy for customers to use and made it simple to find services and make contact. The old company was overbuilding and underdelivering. He cancelled them and came to Yeet Websites.

✨ What We Built

We conducted heavy research into the pest control industry to ensure the site followed best practices for this competitive space. We studied how top national competitors structure their sites, what services get dedicated pages, and how customers navigate pest control websites.

The result was an 18-page custom website with:

  • Clean, simplified navigation — modeled after industry leaders, not overcomplicated agency guesswork
  • Full residential pest control service pages — dedicated pages for each major pest type and service
  • Full commercial pest control service pages — complete commercial service suite for business clients
  • Service area coverage — clear geographic targeting for the Rives Junction, Michigan area
  • Click-to-call functionality — prominent phone number on every page, mobile-optimized for tap-to-call
  • Contact forms — easy scheduling and inquiry forms
  • Mobile-first design — fast, responsive, functional on every device
  • Speed optimization — built for fast load times
  • SSL, schema markup, and basic SEO setup — all included standard

The entire site was designed around one principle: make it as easy as possible for someone with a pest problem to find the right service and make contact. No bloat, no unnecessary complexity.

🎯 The Result

The client went from paying $280/month for a website that didn't exist to paying $130/month for a live, 18-page custom site — delivered in 11 days. That's $1,800/year in savings and a site that was actually built for how pest control customers think and search.

Tangible outcomes:

  • Delivered in 11 days from kickoff to launch (November 17-28, 2025)
