Consumer Advice BEWARE the licensing system for pest controllers is open to abuse by unscruplous operators FOR EXAMPLE a pest control business may have unlimited "trainees" with little pest control experience, knowledge or supervision. Every year, many pest control businesses start up in spring and disappear in autumn leaving disgruntled customers with serious termite problems BEWARE of such fly-by-nighters or pest control companies with very low prices - usually an indicator of insincere warranties and ineffectual service.
