Pagers do use the frequencies in between our frequencies. About all you can do is monitor them and complain if they are off-frequency. My local field had one that was a little off-frequency for a while. It would cause problems. A real pain to figure out since they don't always transmit. You

I was recently hit with a CB rig on Ch 30. I was too close to a big rig and apparently got swamped by him. Big rigs are known to regularly use 100+ watt linears to Boost their 27 Mh CBs'   Our field in San Diego ran several tests and found that pagers on ch 28-29, 23-24, 11-12, 50-51, 54-55
