Every infestation call answered, day or night.
Vossat is a 24/7 AI answering service for pest control companies. It picks up every call on the first ring, finds out what pest the caller is dealing with, flags urgent jobs, and books the inspection straight into your calendar, even while your techs are under a house or in an attic.

What Vossat does for pest control
Most pest control jobs start with a worried homeowner on the phone. Vossat works as your pest control virtual receptionist: it answers in a calm, natural voice, asks the questions your office would ask, and turns the call into a booked job.
It's an AI phone answering system built for how a pest control business actually runs. It learns your services, prices, service area, and which pests you treat, so callers get real answers instead of "someone will call you back." You get a text summary of every call, and the customer gets a confirmation.
A wasp nest by the front door or a termite swarm in the living room can't wait until Monday. Vossat asks what the caller is seeing and where, recognizes the jobs you mark as urgent, and passes them straight to whoever is on call (on the Growth and Scale plans). Routine requests, like a quote for general pest treatment, get booked into the next open slot.
Vossat collects the address, the type of property, the pest, and how long the problem has been going on, then books the inspection or treatment in Google Calendar or Outlook. Your tech shows up already knowing what to expect, and the customer gets a text confirmation (plus a reminder before the visit on the Growth and Scale plans).
Why calls get missed
Pest control is a phone business, but the people who answer the phone are usually busy doing the work. Calls slip through for the same reasons every season:
Swarm season and summer rushes.
Termite swarms in spring and wasps, ants, and mosquitoes in summer bring waves of calls all at once.
Techs on the job.
Nobody can pick up from a crawl space, an attic, or the middle of a treatment.
After-hours problems.
Homeowners notice mice in the kitchen or bed bugs in the bedroom at night and on weekends, when the office is closed.
Small teams.
In a one- or two-truck company, the owner is often the tech, the salesperson, and the receptionist.
When a homeowner with an infestation reaches voicemail, they rarely wait. They call the next pest control company on Google. An answering service for pest control closes that gap by making sure every caller talks to someone who can book the job.

Sample scenario
Termite swarm, Saturday 7:15 PM
Caller
Hi, there are a bunch of flying bugs coming out of the wall by our back door. I think they might be termites.
Vossat
I'm sorry you're dealing with that. Flying insects coming out of a wall in spring are often termite swarmers, so it's smart to get them checked. Are they inside the house or only outside?
Caller
Some are inside, by the kitchen window.
Vossat
Got it. I can book a termite inspection for Monday at 8:00 AM or 1:00 PM. Which works better? And can you confirm the address?
Caller
8 AM. It's 42 Maple Drive.
Vossat
You're booked for Monday at 8:00 AM at 42 Maple Drive. You'll get a text confirmation in a moment.

A live answering service gives callers a person but usually just takes a message, which means your office still has to call back. Vossat answers, qualifies, and books the job on the same call. Virtual assistants for pest control can help during office hours, but they clock out. Vossat gives you the round-the-clock coverage of a call center for pest control without hiring night staff or buying call center software.
