How Tinylawn Fits In

It Slots Into How You Already Work

Tinylawn sits in front of your phone and your schedule — catching the calls you miss and handing qualified leads to the tools you already use. You keep your number, your software, and control of the job.

Your phone number

Works with your number, not instead of it

Keep the number that's already on your trucks, yard signs, and Google Business Profile. With conditional call forwarding, Tinylawn picks up the calls you can't get to yourself — after hours, on weekends, and when the line is already busy.

  • Keep your existing business number — nothing new to advertise
  • Forwarding routes only your missed, after-hours, and overflow calls to the AI receptionist
  • Every plan comes with a dedicated Tinylawn number — it is up to you whether to market it as a standalone 24/7 hotline

Your scheduling

Fits your scheduling — it doesn't replace it

Tinylawn is the intake layer in front of your operation, not your dispatch board. It answers, qualifies, and books the intake so you can confirm the lead and run the job in the software you already use.

  • Captures and qualifies every caller on a simple intake calendar
  • You review qualified leads, then schedule the approved work in your field service software
  • Works alongside Jobber, Housecall Pro, your CRM, and the tools you already run

Better Pest Control Lead Records

Know What You Are Calling Back About Before You Dial

A voicemail that says "I have bugs" forces your team to restart the entire intake. Tinylawn captures the practical details while the caller is still on the line, then gives your office, owner, or dispatcher the call summary, transcript, photos, and property context in one place.

That is especially valuable during termite season, mosquito program season, and any week when after-hours calls decide who wins the job.

Details Tinylawn Can Capture

  • Pest type or best caller description
  • Where activity is happening: kitchen, attic, crawl space, yard, unit, exterior, or foundation
  • Severity indicators: swarms, bites, stings, droppings, visible damage, nests, or recurring sightings
  • Property address, property type, and useful access notes
  • Urgency, preferred timing, and whether the call should be booked or escalated
  • Photos, call recording, transcript, and AI summary attached to the lead record

Tinylawn caught two termite calls after hours that would have gone straight to voicemail. By morning I had the address, photos, and notes ready for inspection scheduling.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Tinylawn triage urgent pest control calls before they hit my schedule?
Yes. Tinylawn can ask what pest the caller is seeing, where the activity is happening, whether there is visible damage, whether anyone has been stung or bitten, and how quickly they need help. That helps you separate urgent termite, wasp, rodent, bed bug, and wildlife calls from routine quarterly service or prevention requests.
What information does Tinylawn collect for a pest control lead?
Tinylawn can collect the caller name, confirmed phone number, property address, pest description, location of activity, severity, timeline, property type, service history, access notes, and whether the caller is a new or existing customer. Instead of a vague voicemail, you get a qualified lead summary with enough context to quote, dispatch, schedule an inspection, or follow up later.
How is Tinylawn different from a generic call center for exterminators?
A generic call center usually takes a basic message and passes it along. Tinylawn is built for field-service intake, so it can ask pest-aware follow-up questions, capture property details, answer configured FAQs, request photos by text, and classify calls as quote requests, appointments, cancellations, reschedules, general questions, or spam.
Can Tinylawn help during termite season or mosquito season call spikes?
Yes. Seasonal surges are one of the best use cases for an AI receptionist. When termite swarms, mosquito outbreaks, rodent pressure, or wasp activity cause multiple callers to contact you at once, Tinylawn can answer each call immediately instead of sending overflow to voicemail or leaving callers on hold.
Can Tinylawn ask different questions for termites, mosquitoes, rodents, and bed bugs?
Tinylawn can be configured around your services and FAQs, so the conversation can collect different details depending on what the caller describes. A termite inquiry may need visible damage, swarm location, foundation notes, and inspection timing. A mosquito inquiry may need yard conditions, standing water, wooded edges, and program interest. A bed bug or rodent call may need room, unit, severity, and access details.
Can I use Tinylawn only for nights, weekends, or overflow?
Yes. Many pest control companies start with after-hours, weekend, emergency, or overflow coverage. You can use conditional call forwarding so your office handles live daytime calls and Tinylawn steps in only when the line is busy, the team is on another call, or no one answers.
Does Tinylawn work with my current pest control phone number?
Yes. You keep your existing number and forward calls to Tinylawn. Customers still call the number on your trucks, yard signs, and online listings, so there is no need to reprint marketing materials or retrain customers.
Will callers know they are speaking with AI?
Tinylawn uses a natural-sounding voice and answers with your company name, service area, and configured greeting. Most callers experience it like a professional front desk. If a situation needs a human, Tinylawn captures the details and alerts you so you can jump in quickly.
Does Tinylawn replace my pest control software or CRM?
No. Tinylawn is a phone answering, lead qualification, scheduling, and call intelligence layer. It does not replace your routing, invoicing, chemical tracking, or pest control business management software. It helps make sure the phone call is answered and the lead record is detailed before the work moves into your existing process.
Can Tinylawn collect photos from pest control callers?
Yes. After the call, Tinylawn can text the caller a link to upload photos of the pest, damage, droppings, entry point, nest, or affected area. That is especially useful for vague descriptions like "little brown bugs," suspected termite damage, rodents in a garage, or bed bug activity in a multi-unit property.
How much does Tinylawn cost for a pest control company?
Plans start at $49 per month for 30 calls, with Growth at $149 for 120 calls and Scale at $299 for 300 calls. Every plan includes 24/7 coverage, bilingual answering, virtual site visits, and a 14-day free trial with no credit card required.
