Village Green Lawn and Pest Lawn & Pest Technician Plano, TX · Full time Company website

Apply for Lawn & Pest Technician

Village Green Lawn & Pest has been serving North Texas homeowners since 1980. We're a family-owned company based in downtown Plano, and we specialize in lawn health, pest control, and mosquito treatment for residential customers across the DFW area. We're not a national chain. Our technicians know the neighborhoods they serve, our customers talk to a local team when they call, and our leadership has been with the company for decades. That stability shows up in the quality of our work and the way we treat our people. We invest in our team — with structured training, reliable equipment, clear processes, and room to grow. If you take pride in doing a job right and want to build something long-term, you'll fit in here.
