Server-side guardrails
The guardrails you manage in the admin, enforced before Fred replies.
Every pest control deployment runs the Pest Control pack. This is the compliance panel you manage in the admin: the industry pack automation, your own custom rules, and the hard limits Fred holds no matter how it’s asked. All of it is enforced in code before a word reaches the visitor. Not a suggestion in a prompt a clever question can talk around.

Hard limits
The boundaries Fred holds, no matter how a visitor asks.
- Never coaches anyone to apply restricted-use pesticides
- Never gives DIY fumigation, tenting, or termite-treatment steps
- Always routes pesticide-exposure symptoms to Poison Control and your team
- Never promises a result a licensed applicator hasn’t assessed
Your custom rules
Layered on top of the pack, unique to your business. No developer required.
The pack is the starting line, not the ceiling. Every deployment can add its own rules in the admin, block, warn, or just log on any phrase you choose, in either phase, with your own response message. They run right alongside the pack.
- BLOCKoff-topic requests that aren’t your business
- WARNbefore anyone is quoted a price over chat
- LOGwhen a visitor mentions a competitor by name
These industry rules stack on top of the always-on baseline, your region’s privacy and crisis rules, and macro overlays. See how the guardrail layers work
Know which job to call back first.
Every conversation lands in your CRM with a lead score, a purchase probability, and a plain-language summary. The termite job and the commercial account get called before the one-time ant question, so your team works the highest-value lead first instead of guessing.
Pest control questions.
What happens if someone is exposed to a pesticide?
Fred recognizes exposure language, tells the caller to contact Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222 or 911 for serious symptoms, captures the details, and connects them with your team right away.
Will Fred tell someone how to treat it themselves?
No. Fred won’t give DIY chemical, fumigation, or termite-treatment instructions, and it won’t recommend restricted-use products. It books an inspection instead.
Can Fred set up a recurring plan?
Yes. Fred captures the pest situation and the cadence the customer wants and routes it so your office can lock in the recurring service.
Does it handle commercial accounts?
Yes. Commercial and property-management accounts are qualified separately and flagged as higher-value leads so they reach the right person quickly.
Book every pest inspection. Stay in your lane.
