- Market Outlook / Competition
- While pest control companies are common, few in the area offer full mosquito control programs, and none to the standard and effectiveness Pest-Hunters-Mosquito Hunters has established. In a humid, sub-tropical climate, pest control is an essential, year-round business.
For holiday and permanent lighting, the Corpus Christi area is nearly an un-tapped market. There is only one other well-established company in town, with all others coming from out of town, lawn services offering in their down time, or "I paid my lawn guy to put up my lights." - Opportunities for Growth
- We are in the very beginning stages for holiday and permanent lighting. With very little advertising, Humbug Holiday lighting was profitable in just it's second season. Permanent lighting started only in 2025, and has even more growth potential.
For pest control, we started the business as only servicing for mosquitoes, fleas, and ticks. Recently expanding our services to general pest control has increased the potential value of each customer and broadened the range of potential clients looking for pest control. The vast majority of our general pest control is still only outdoors leaving even more earning potential from standardized indoor services.
