Pest and Wildlife ManagementPricing and Revenue Strategy4HighHomeowner$ implied
A homeowner is being quoted an unexpectedly high price ($18k-$25k) for mice exclusion and insulation work, and suspects the company might be overcharging elderly customers.
No transparent, upfront pricing or price comparison tool for pest exclusion services; customers feel vulnerable to being overcharged without a way to verify fair market rates.
