How PestRouting Works

Analyze. Simulate. Decide.

PestRouting does not schedule today's route faster. It rebuilds the recurring route structure from your FieldRoutes data — then lets you choose the best version before anything changes.

Why this differs from automation
01

Connect

FieldRoutes data pulled via API — technicians, subscriptions, historical routes. No manual exports.

02

Analyze

Build a current-state baseline. Where are miles being wasted? Which territories overlap?

03

Simulate

Generate multiple route structures using your real constraints: frequency, windows, technician skills.

04

Decide

Compare scenarios side by side across KPIs. Miles per stop, drive time, stop distribution — all visible.

05

Implement

You approve. Changes go directly into FieldRoutes. The cycle repeats as your operation grows.

Not Route Automation. Route Intelligence.

Most route tools help you execute a plan faster. PestRouting helps you build a fundamentally better plan — then implement it with confidence.

Typical route automation

Fill the schedule

  • Day-by-day dispatching only

    Fills today's schedule — does not improve recurring route structure

  • Single-output route generation

    One plan produced, no comparison across scenarios or trade-offs

  • Reactive to immediate demand

    No long-horizon analysis of route health or structural problems

  • Execution speed as the goal

    Faster scheduling, not fundamentally better routing

PestRouting

Improve the plan

  • Long-horizon recurring route planning

    Built for weekly, monthly, and bi-monthly service schedules — not just same-day dispatch

  • Multiple scenarios, compared side by side

    Evaluate trade-offs and KPI differences before committing to any operational change

  • Operational analysis, not just routes

    Understand why routes are inefficient — and what structural changes will actually improve them

  • Data-driven recommendations with human sign-off

    Operators retain full control over what changes are approved and implemented

PestRouting is built specifically for recurring pest control operations — not generic scheduling automation.

Built on the Data Your Operation Already Runs On

PestRouting pulls operational data directly from FieldRoutes — no manual exports, no spreadsheets. Route quality depends on input quality: better data leads to more reliable analysis and more practical recommendations.

What data we use

Pulled via the FieldRoutes API — no setup required on your end.

  • Technicians

    Names, service areas, availability, skills, and current assignments

  • Recurring subscriptions

    Service frequencies, treatment types, customer addresses, and intervals

  • One-time appointments

    Included for short-term planning context — not weighted into recurring structure

  • Historical routes

    Prior route data when available — used to establish an honest current-state baseline

  • Prior drive times & distances

    Real-world driving data that informs constraint calibration and scenario comparison

Constraints that shape better routes

Routes are only as good as the constraints that define them. Each constraint reflects a real operational or customer commitment.

  • Recurring frequency

    Weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, bi-monthly

  • Geography

    Territory boundaries, service areas, drive zones

  • Service windows

    Customer time preferences and business access hours

  • Technician ownership

    Existing customer-technician relationships

  • Skills & specializations

    Licensing, treatment certifications, specialist routes

  • Route balance

    Workload equity across the technician team

  • PTO & availability

    Planned time off, coverage gaps, schedule exceptions

  • Drive time limits

    Maximum acceptable windshield time per route

  • Preferred weekdays

    Customer or operational day preferences

Compare Multiple Scenarios Before Making Any Change

The goal is not to generate a route. The goal is to understand which route structure creates the best operational outcome — before anything changes in FieldRoutes.

01

Establish current-state baseline

We document your existing route structure, KPIs, and operational constraints to create an honest starting point — so any improvement is measured against real data, not assumptions.

02

Generate multiple route scenarios

Different constraint combinations and planning approaches produce distinct route scenarios. Each represents a different structural direction your operation could take.

03

Compare scenarios by KPI

Each scenario is evaluated against key metrics: miles per stop, drive time as a percentage of total work time, stop distribution across technicians, and more.

04

Identify the most practical path forward

Not just the most optimal on paper — but the scenario that best accounts for operational realities, customer commitments, and implementation feasibility.

What you receive

After analysis, every engagement delivers outputs your team can review, discuss, and act on — before any changes go live.

Map view per scenario

Geographic visualization of route structure for each scenario

Aggregate KPI view

Miles per stop, drive time %, stops per route — across all scenarios

Scenario comparison

Side-by-side KPI differences between current state and alternatives

Technician-level breakdown

Route assignments, timing, and workload distribution per technician

Operational recommendations

Clear guidance on which changes to prioritize and why

Automation Where It Helps. Human Judgment Where It Matters.

PestRouting helps operators make better decisions. It does not hide the decisions that affect your customers and your technicians.

What is automated

  • Route formation

    All possible route structures are computed automatically across your full recurring schedule.

  • Scenario generation

    Multiple planning approaches are generated without manual configuration for each one.

  • KPI calculation and comparison

    Miles per stop, drive time ratios, and stop distributions are calculated and compared automatically across all scenarios.

What stays human

  • Constraint decisions with customer impact

    Service window changes and technician reassignments affect real customer commitments — those decisions require human review before being set.

  • Analysis and operational interpretation

    Understanding what a KPI difference means for your specific operation requires context that goes beyond the numbers alone.

  • Operational roll-out timing

    When and how approved route changes are introduced to the field stays with your team — not automated on a fixed schedule.

  • Implementation approval

    No route change goes into FieldRoutes without your explicit sign-off. You review the full scenario before anything is applied.

From First Call to Ongoing Improvement

Every engagement follows a structured process. You stay in control at every step — nothing changes in FieldRoutes without your explicit approval.

01

Intro Call

A focused conversation to understand your FieldRoutes setup, team structure, service areas, and routing challenges. We assess whether your operation is a strong candidate for a route audit — no commitment required.

02

NDA & API Access

We sign a mutual NDA before accessing anything. You then grant API access to your FieldRoutes account — no manual exports, no spreadsheets, no technical setup on your end.

03

Route Analysis

We pull your operational data, establish a current-state baseline, and analyze your recurring route structure against your actual constraints. This is where we find what is working and what is not.

04

Scenario Simulation & Presentation

We generate and compare multiple route scenarios, then present the results — KPI comparisons, map views, technician breakdowns, and clear operational recommendations.

05

Implementation in FieldRoutes

Once you approve the recommended changes, we push them directly into FieldRoutes via API. Your technicians see better routes immediately — no disruption, no retraining.

06

Ongoing Optimization

Routes and operations evolve. We continue analyzing, simulating, and refining as your business grows — so route quality compounds over time rather than degrading.

Who PestRouting Is Built For

PestRouting works best for recurring pest control operations with enough scale to benefit from structural route improvements. There is no upper limit on team size.

Strong fit

This is built for operations like yours if...

  • Currently using FieldRoutes

    PestRouting connects via the FieldRoutes API — this is a hard requirement today.

  • 5 or more technicians

    Route structure optimization has the most measurable impact on larger teams.

  • 500–1,000+ monthly stops

    Enough recurring volume to make structural route improvements meaningful.

  • Recurring-heavy service model

    Weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or bi-monthly services — not primarily one-time jobs.

  • Growing or scaling operation

    Adding technicians, expanding territories, or dealing with increasing route complexity.

Not the right fit

Probably not a match if...

  • Not on FieldRoutes

    PestRouting is currently built exclusively around the FieldRoutes platform.

  • One or two technicians

    Very small teams do not have enough route structure complexity to benefit.

  • Primarily one-time or annual services

    Recurring schedule analysis requires meaningful recurring volume.

  • Not open to data access

    A route audit requires FieldRoutes API access — without data, there is no analysis.
