Pest Control Services Listings
The listings compiled on this site aggregate licensed pest control providers across the United States, with a primary focus on termite-specific services. Each entry connects property owners, real estate professionals, and facilities managers to vetted service categories — from initial inspection through post-treatment monitoring. Understanding how the listings are structured helps users identify the right provider type and service scope for a specific infestation or prevention scenario.
How to use listings alongside other resources
The listings function as a practical endpoint within a broader research workflow. Before contacting any provider, consulting the pest control services topic context page establishes baseline knowledge about termite biology, infestation severity levels, and treatment mechanisms. That context shapes more productive conversations with prospective contractors.
For users working through an active infestation, the how to use this pest control services resource page outlines a step-by-step evaluation path — from identifying signs of termite activity through comparing treatment bids. Listings are most useful after that orientation because users can then filter by service type rather than defaulting to the first available provider.
Real estate transactions introduce a separate set of time constraints. Wood-destroying organism reports, required in 30 or more states as part of standard purchase agreements, are typically ordered through licensed inspection firms rather than general pest control operators. The wood-destroying organism reports explained page details what those reports include and which license categories are authorized to produce them. Cross-referencing that information with the inspection-specific listings prevents delays at closing.
How listings are organized
Listings are segmented by service category rather than by geography or company size. This structure reflects the practical reality that termite control is not a single service — it spans at least 8 distinct treatment methods, 4 termite species groups with different biology and distribution, and 3 broad lifecycle stages of treatment (pre-construction, active infestation, and post-treatment monitoring).
The primary organizational tiers are:
- Inspection services — providers licensed to conduct structural inspections and produce official reports, including termite inspection services and termite damage assessment
- Treatment services — further subdivided by method: liquid termiticide treatments, termite bait station systems, termite fumigation tenting services, heat treatment termite control, and orange oil termite treatment
- Species-specific services — providers specializing in subterranean termite control services, drywood termite control services, dampwood termite control services, and Formosan termite control services
- Lifecycle-stage services — termite pre-construction treatment, termite post-construction treatment, and termite monitoring programs
- Contract and warranty services — providers offering termite warranty and protection plans, termite bond explained, and termite control service contracts
A provider may appear in more than one category if its licensing and documented service offerings span multiple tiers.
What each listing covers
Each provider entry includes standardized data fields drawn from publicly available licensing records, state pesticide regulatory databases, and operator-submitted documentation. Fields include:
- License status — verified against state structural pest control board records; the relevant regulatory framework varies by state but typically falls under State Department of Agriculture oversight or a dedicated pest control licensing board
- Service categories — the treatment methods and inspection types the provider is documented to offer
- Coverage area — defined by county or metro region, not self-reported service radius claims
- EPA registration relevance — where applicable, whether the provider applies products registered under FIFRA (Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act), the federal statute governing termiticide products in the United States
- Certifications held — including any credentials from the National Pest Management Association (NPMA) or state-equivalent bodies; see termite control certifications and credentials for classification details
Listings do not include pricing data. Termite treatment costs vary substantially based on infestation severity, structure size, and method selection. The termite control cost guide addresses cost benchmarks separately, using published industry survey data.
Geographic distribution
Termite pressure in the United States is not uniform. The USDA Forest Service maps the country into 4 termite hazard zones — from Zone 1 (heavy) covering the Gulf Coast, Florida, and Hawaii, to Zone 4 (none to slight) in the northern tier states. Listing density reflects this distribution: the highest concentration of listed providers falls in Zone 1 states, including Florida, Louisiana, Texas, California, and Hawaii, where subterranean and drywood termite populations overlap.
Zone 2 (moderate to heavy) states — including the Southeast, mid-Atlantic, and parts of the Pacific Coast — represent the second-largest provider cluster. Formosan termite activity, which the Formosan termite control services page addresses in detail, is concentrated in a narrower band from coastal Texas through the Carolinas and into Hawaii.
Zone 3 and Zone 4 states carry fewer listings proportionally, though subterranean termite activity extends into the Pacific Northwest and the Mountain West. Providers in those regions are more likely to offer combined pest management services rather than termite-exclusive specialization. Users in lower-hazard regions are encouraged to review termite risk by US region before filtering listings, as species presence and applicable treatment methods differ meaningfully from high-hazard coastal markets.
The termite control state regulations overview page documents licensing reciprocity rules and state-specific treatment restrictions that affect which providers can legally operate in each jurisdiction — a relevant filter for multi-state commercial property portfolios and contiguous-county operations near state borders.
