Full-Time Exterminator / Certified Pesticide Applicator (NYSDEC 7A& 7F)
Job Description
$55,000 – $65,000 per year + benefits
Monday–Friday days, occasional urgent response | Reports to the Administrator
About the Role:
Cirrus Manor is a 200-bed adult home on Culver Road, and we are making a serious, funded investment
in pest management: a full-time in-house exterminator, a rebuilt Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
program, structural exclusion upgrades, a weekly pest control vendor partnership, and administrator-
level backing.
This is a rare in-house position — no route, no sales quotas, no commission chasing. You will own the
program and see the results of your work every day in a building 160 people call home.
What You’ll Do
• Run daily monitoring rounds and maintain the facility pest map.
• Inspect every resident room on a rotating schedule (each room at least monthly).
• Perform bed bug and rodent treatments — heat, residual, and biopesticide protocols.
• Place and service interceptors, monitors, and tamper-resistant bait stations.
• Maintain all pesticide application records required by NYSDEC (6 NYCRR Part 325).
• Co-lead the weekly pest control meeting with our contracted vendor and escort the vendor on all
service visits.
• Inspect incoming furniture, resident belongings, and hospital returns.
• Train staff and educate residents on prevention and reporting.
What You Need
• REQUIRED: Current NYSDEC commercial pesticide applicator certification, Category 7A (Structural
Rodent Control).
• STRONGLY PREFERRED: Category 7F (Food Processing). If you do not hold 7F, we will pay for the
upgrade course, and your salary moves to the top of the range when you certify.
• 2+ years of structural pest control experience with hands-on bed bug work.
• Clean, consistent documentation habits.
• The people skills to work respectfully around elderly residents in their home.
• Employment is contingent on the background screening required for New York adult care facilities
(including the Justice Center staff exclusion list check).
What We Offer
• Weekly pay — every Thursday.
• Health coverage, PTO, and NYS paid sick leave.
• Paid recertification credits and DEC license renewal fees.
• All equipment provided.
• A stable Monday–Friday schedule
