Pest Share
👤 Landon Cooley (Fourth-generation pest pro who built the fix with co-founders Justin and Tom Clements, both from pest-industry backgrounds.)🌐 siteLinkedIn
A fourth-generation pest guy stopped selling software to pest firms and started selling coverage to landlords.
Will it work? · our read
Embedded and sticky. Not a pest app — a way to bill 300,000 rentals for pest coverage every month. VC now believes; the real test is whether landlords keep paying when budgets tighten.

Revenue is not disclosed by the company. The headline $28M Series A, the 300,000 residential units, the 48 states, and the founders all come from Pest Share's own September 10, 2025 press release on PR Newswire, which I fetched as raw HTML and string-matched (exact strings '$28 million Series A', '300,000 residential units', '48 states', 'Landon Cooley', 'started in 2020', 'fourth-generation' all present). Founder bios per PR Newswire and pestshare.com/about-us describe Justin and Tom Clements as co-founders from a shared pest-industry background, not as Cooley's siblings — no source states a familial relationship, so that claim was removed. Third-party Latka estimates about $18M ARR for 2026 and about $10M crossed in 2025; the company has not confirmed a revenue figure, so I treat that as an unverified estimate and do not headline it. Pest Share is VC-funded (this $28M Series A led by Integrity Growth Partners, plus about $5M raised before this round). 'verified' refers to the first-party funding and traction numbers, which are confirmed on the company's press release; ARR is not. We never score you.
