Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a license to practice pest control in California?
Yes, you have to apply for a California pest control license through the California Structural Pest Control Board.
Can I still work if I have a violation against my pest control license?
Any violation or accusation could result in a possible suspension, which would affect your ability to work in a career that would require said license.
What is the process of investigating an accusation against my pest control license like?
A formal accusation acts as notice to a California Pest Control Operator that the Board wants to revoke the Pest Control Operator License. You only have 15 days to file a Notice of Defense from the date the accusation was served (not received, but served). If you fail to file the Notice of Defense in time, you may face a default, which will result in your Pest Control License being revoked immediately.
