Pest Control Route Optimization
Automate 90% of route planning, cut mileage by up to 49%, and fit 3+ more jobs per technician per day - with intelligent route optimization and scheduling built for pest control operations managing 50 to 1,500+ technicians.
Most pest control operations still plan routes manually - and it shows. Technicians backtrack across neighborhoods, dispatchers spend hours every morning on schedules that still aren't optimal, and customers call asking where their technician is. At scale, these problems compound into millions in avoidable cost. eLogii replaces this with automated, intelligent route optimization built for pest control workflows - from recurring treatments and skill matching to hypersensitivity alerts and real-time re-optimization.
These are the problems we hear from every pest control company before they switch to eLogii.
eLogii's optimization engine groups nearby stops by neighborhood, factors in traffic patterns and service durations, and builds routes that minimize total mileage - not just point-to-point distance. In benchmark testing with real pest control data, eLogii reduced total route distance by 49% compared to manually planned routes.
Emergency callouts slot into live routes in seconds. No-access visits auto-reschedule for retry. Cancellations free up capacity that gets filled immediately. Recurring treatments auto-generate at the correct frequencies and get optimized into existing routes - not scheduled in isolation.
Branded tracking pages, automated SMS and email notifications at every stage, live ETA updates, and self-service rescheduling. Your customers stay informed from booking to completion without ever needing to call your office. Operations handling 50,000+ support calls per month typically see a 25%+ reduction in call volume.
Photos, electronic signatures, GPS stamps, and configurable digital forms - every treatment is documented with auditable evidence that protects you in disputes, satisfies compliance requirements, and gives your customers confidence that the work was done.
Real numbers from eLogii deployments at pest control operations running 500-750+ technicians.
Vergo Pest Management (formerly Terminix UK) is the UK's second-largest pest control operation, handling thousands of service visits weekly nationwide. They evaluated Descartes, Ortec, and other legacy vendors before selecting eLogii.
"We were spending hours a day manually building routes and still not achieving the level of optimization we needed."James Hodges, CIO, Vergo Pest Management
eLogii automated nationwide scheduling, kept planning lean through rapid acquisition growth, and eliminated service backlogs.
"The teams love the platform - the mapping, the interface, the speed. I'd recommend eLogii to any field service business."James Hodges, CIO, Vergo Pest Management

eLogii's API-first architecture means every entity and action available in the dashboard can be managed through the API. Unthrottled at enterprise scale.
Route optimization software analyzes all your scheduled jobs - locations, time windows, technician skills and certifications, service durations, and vehicle capacity - then calculates the most efficient assignment and sequence in seconds. For pest control, this means grouping residential treatments by neighborhood, routing technicians to avoid backtracking, matching fumigation-certified techs to fumigation jobs, and automatically factoring in service duration differences between initial treatments and recurring follow-ups. The optimization engine runs continuously, adapting to cancellations, emergency callouts, and no-access visits in real time.
Pest control companies using eLogii typically see 25-49% reductions in total mileage, fit 3-5 more jobs per technician per day, and achieve 94%+ average technician utilization. For a 750-technician operation, this translates to over $1.1 million per year in fuel savings alone, plus $1.3 million in field tech efficiency gains. Even with a 50% conservatism factor applied, most operations see a 6x+ return on investment within the first year.
Yes. eLogii's same-day re-optimization engine inserts emergency callouts into live routes without disrupting the rest of the schedule. The system identifies the nearest available technician with the right certifications, recalculates the optimal route in real time, and automatically notifies the customer with an updated ETA. Dispatchers retain full control to override if needed.
eLogii supports recurring scheduling with configurable frequencies - weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, or custom intervals. Tasks auto-generate based on subscription schedules and service due dates, then get optimized across date ranges. A customer due for their quarterly treatment gets slotted into an existing route in their neighborhood rather than scheduled in isolation, dramatically improving route density.
Yes. eLogii has a deep bi-directional integration with FieldRoutes. Appointments, subscriptions, technician schedules, and customer data sync automatically. eLogii optimizes routes then writes finalized assignments - technician, date, route, sequence - back into FieldRoutes. Your dispatchers can stay in FieldRoutes or work directly in eLogii. No developer resources needed.
Yes. eLogii's rules engine supports hypersensitivity handling through custom fields and automated alerts. Customers can be notified 24 hours in advance if a chemical they're sensitive to will be used. Technicians receive in-app alerts when jobs fall within a defined radius of a hypersensitive customer. All alerts are logged for audit and can be pushed to CX platforms via API.
Yes. eLogii automatically assigns jobs based on technician certifications, licenses, and equipment. Fumigation-certified technicians only get fumigation jobs. You can configure unlimited skill types - termite defense, bed bug reduction, German roach plans, flea tick treatment - and the optimization engine enforces these constraints automatically during route building.
Most pest control companies go live within 6-10 weeks, with full nationwide rollout in 10-14 weeks. The process covers operational deep-dive and rule definition, configuration and integration setup, a pilot with one or two branches including hands-on training, feedback and optimization, then full rollout. eLogii handles all configuration and provides hands-on support.
Yes. eLogii currently powers pest control operations with 500+ technicians handling thousands of service visits weekly. Built on AWS with 99.95% measured uptime, the platform handles 750,000+ stops optimized daily with no degradation. There is no upper limit on technicians, tasks, or routes. The API is unthrottled at enterprise scale.
eLogii eliminates the majority of "where is my technician?" calls through automated customer communications. Customers receive branded notifications at each stage - scheduled, one week before, three days before, one day before, and when the technician is en route. A branded tracking page shows real-time location and live ETA. Customers can also reschedule directly from the tracking page without calling. For large operations, this typically reduces support call volume by 25% or more.
eLogii integrates with FieldRoutes (bi-directional appointment sync), Samsara (plug-and-play telematics), simPRO, Workday, Genesys, and any system via its REST API and webhooks. The API supports bulk data transfers with no throttling, event-driven webhooks for real-time sync, and data transformers for automatic schema mapping between systems.
