Pest control customers locked into long contracts with poor escape clauses is a service problem in Home & DIY. It has a heat score of 17 (demand) and competition score of 38 (existing solutions), creating an opportunity score of 0.0.
Homeowners sign annual pest control contracts with early termination fees, then discover service is ineffective or experience improved results after switching, but cannot escape without penalties. Existing pest control companies resist month-to-month options, making it hard to test alternatives.
