Monthly data release
US Pest Control Licensing Snapshot: November 2026
By Vijaygopal
23,340 pest control businesses are matched to state license records marked active at our last check across 35 licensing jurisdictions (states plus the District of Columbia) and 5,157 cities, processed through .
Observed movement, last 30 days
State regulators publish only the current roster, so change history exists only from the date we began recording it (). These are changes PestPin noticed between one check of the state's records and the next, not a regulator's own change log. A state we integrated during the window arrives as one big batch of first appearances, so those are reported on their own line below rather than counted as movement.
186
license records that appeared for the first time on a roster we were already processing before this window. A company holding several licenses can appear more than once.
21
status or eligibility changes observed on existing records
Where those first appearances were: Florida (42), Texas (35), California (25), South Carolina (20), Virginia (19).
About this release
Compiled from official state regulator sources; every count is computed live from the underlying records at the time you load this page, so the figures above are the current ones rather than a stored edition. The per-state version of these movement figures, month by month and with the businesses named, is linked from each state's license lookup page. Full state-by-state coverage, with a link to each state's official source, is on the license data page, the machine-readable summary is on the licensing report, and the method is documented on the methodology page.
