Pest Control Workers pay in Georgia and Washington
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Pest Control Workers is $37,860 per year in Georgia. It is $51,300 per year in Washington. Georgia is 26.2% below Washington on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 37-2021 and the same annual wage metric. Median means the middle of each area's published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. The larger median is not proof that one place gives a better job or a better result. It is one wage fact from one source period.
BLS lists 5,770 wage and salary jobs in Georgia and 1,430 in Washington. Those are survey job counts, not open posts. Read pay, job scale, local share, and price level as separate facts before you make a choice.
