These are service industries. Nobody goes and opens an air-conditioning repair business where there are no homes and/or offices. Close the government and nearly all such business as you mentioned would close too. By contrast much of the garment industry in NYC disappeared and almost no one who repairs air-conditioners noticed.

Air conditioning repair. Mosquito abatement. De-humidifiers. To name just a few.
