~$2M Revenue, $500K SDE, Indianapolis Pest Control + Wildlife Removal
April 28, 2026
by an intermediary from University of Applied Sciences in Vienna, Austria
Family-owned residential pest control and wildlife removal operator based in Indianapolis with a satellite location in Columbus, OH. Posting on behalf of the seller; CT Strategic Partners is buy-side only.
Financials:
- Estimated revenue: ~$2M (owner declined to share; estimate based on stated SDE and cost structure)
- SDE: $500K (after owner compensation)
- Up-and-to-the-right revenue and profit trajectory for 2–3 years
- No outstanding debt
- No customer concentration (no single customer >15–20% of revenue)
Services:
- Wildlife removal (one-and-done)
- Residential pest control (recurring)
- Recurring revenue mix is growing entering spring season
Operations:
- 9 employees: 5–6 technicians + 3 office in Indianapolis, 1 employee in Columbus, OH satellite
- $60K invested in operations management software (scheduling, recurring revenue management, referral programs)
- 97% residential, 3% commercial
Deal context:
- Sole owner; eventual sale is a long-term goal but not urgent
- Willing to stay on post-close depending on salary and deal structure
- Owner referenced industry valuation framing (3x revenue or 10x profit) but deferred to buyer offer
Honest flags:
- Owner did not share revenue on initial qualifying call (estimate is ours, based on stated SDE and headcount/cost-stack math)
- Wildlife removal is non-recurring and seasonal; pest control is the recurring backbone
- Limited commercial diversification (3%)
- Owner is exploring, not under time pressure to transact
Potential fit: pest control searcher, wildlife/pest combined operator, regional pest roll-up looking for Indianapolis or Midwest entry, or independent sponsor with home services thesis.
