Quote, schedule, get paid, come back.
Schedule around the weather, not despite it
Exterior barrier sprays want a dry day after them; interior work doesn't care. Write both as rules and each visit is checked at its own address from the National Weather Service forecast. Programs repeat monthly or quarterly with an end date, and every visit lands on the calendar on its own.
- Programs generated as recurring visits for the year
- Dry-day-after rule for exterior sprays, no rule inside
- Rain flags per property, from the rule you set
- Day-before reminders so the customer knows you're coming
Quote it before you leave the site
Quote a quarterly program flat, with an initial treatment, exclusion work, and one-time jobs as lines from your price book. Offer quarterly, bimonthly, and monthly as three packages on one quote. The customer approves from their phone with the initial paid in the same tap.
Get paid without chasing
Each visit or each program period becomes an invoice in a click, with a card or bank pay link. Overdue reminders go out automatically, up to three, in your wording. One-time jobs take a deposit at approval and the balance by link.
Keep every customer for the re-do
A program customer is a customer for years. Every property keeps its program, treatment history, the photos you sent, and the balance, so the renewal is a click and the termite call starts from the record.
Give every customer a portal
One private link per customer: messages with photos, documents you request, a heads-up on any contract waiting for their e-signature, and invoices they pay. No app, no password, free.

FAQ
Pest control questions, answered straight.
Is it really free for pest control operators?
Yes. Unlimited customers, properties, quotes, scheduling, and invoices, free forever, not a trial. No monthly plan, no seat fees, and no credit card to start.
Does it handle quarterly and monthly programs?
Yes. Set the program to repeat monthly with an interval and an end date and the visits generate onto the calendar, each with a day-before reminder and the property's forecast.
Can customers see their treatment history?
Yes. Every customer gets a private portal link with their visits, the updates and photos you sent, documents, and invoices with balances. No app, no password.
Does it track chemical usage for compliance?
No. MakeHay keeps notes, photos, and files on each visit and property, but it doesn't have a regulated chemical-application log. If your state requires one, keep it in your existing system.
How do one-time jobs work alongside programs?
Exclusion, termite, and nest jobs are quotes with their own lines and a deposit at approval, on the same customer as the program.
What's the catch for a pest control business?
No catch. The software costs us almost nothing per operator to run, so it is free. Online card and ACH payments carry processing costs, as they would with any provider.
