What should a termite-control inquiry describe?
Tell a provider where you noticed suspected activity, whether you saw insects or damage and when you noticed it. Do not treat a photograph or general symptom as proof of termites or structural damage. Ask the provider to identify the organism and explain which areas it assessed.
How is control different from an inspection?
An inspection asks whether evidence supports a termite concern; control concerns the proposed response after an assessment. Ask what was found, what area a proposal covers and how the provider will explain its work. Read termite inspection and termite treatment before comparing those separate conversations. No method can be selected by this website.
What should you verify in Louisiana?
The Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry lists Termite Control as a distinct structural pest-control license type for termites and other wood-destroying organisms. Ask the company for the applicable license, place-of-business permit and insurance, and check the department's company information before agreeing to work. A Baton Rouge ZIP code does not establish that a provider serves your address.
