Illustrative example

What does a pest inquiry look like?

InstantResponse.AI

Google Local Services Ads message lead

We keep hearing scratching in the attic at night and found droppings in the garage.

Thanks for the detail. About how long has the noise been going on, and are there pets or young children in the home?

Two weeks or so. Two dogs, no kids.

Got it. Attic activity for roughly two weeks with garage evidence and two dogs on site. I am marking this urgent for our team, who will confirm an inspection window and the treatment plan options available for your property size.

What happens next

An immediate reply, your configured pest, location, and sensitivity questions, and a notification that reaches your technician team with the details a treatment plan needs.

Sample conversation for illustration. Your questions, starting-at prices and urgency rules are set per business profile, and the AI never quotes a price you have not configured.
