A day in the life of a Pest Control Technician is full of creepy crawlies, rodents, and a ton of paperwork. Every job may be different, but the level of paperwork required to get through each visit is vast.
In 2014, Cleankill approached Bantham, keen to see if our digital solutions could take the sting out of their paperwork. Cleankill were reliant on completing carbonated forms in the field, returning them to the office and entering the data into their operating system.
Cleankill found that working this way meant carbon copies could be lost, the imprint could fade, and handwriting would be difficult to decipher. This all slowed Cleankill’s business processes.
Pest Control Collaboration
With many daily visits and an expanding team, Cleankill were keen to start their digital transformation and get their field technicians communicating seamlessly with the office teams and their clients.
Cleankill and Bantham’s, collaboration commenced, and the Pest Control Technicians were soon to have a new bit of tech. The Digital Smartpen!

This solution kick started a new way of working for Cleankill. With the help of the digital pen, staff out in the field were sending real-time data back to the office.
So how does the Digital Smartpen work? Its a seamless paper light solution that uses self-generated digitised paper. The magic happens when the forms data is instantly sent by pairing the Digital Smartpen with your mobile device. Every hand stroke written on the form is recorded.
