The partner's licence, and the limits of this Site
Treatments and inspections arranged through Gaithersburg Pest Control are performed by an independent licensed local pest control company acting as the service partner for Gaithersburg and the surrounding Montgomery County communities. This Site applies no pesticides, performs no inspections and holds no pesticide business licence or applicator certification of any kind.
Compliance is the partner's obligation. It is required to hold the pesticide business licence issued by the Pesticide Regulation Section of the Maryland Department of Agriculture, to designate at least one certified pest control applicator in each category in which it works, to maintain proof of general liability insurance as a condition of that licence, to follow every product label, and to answer to that department, which also receives complaints against licensed businesses and certified applicators. Written wood-destroying insect findings are issued by the licensee on the state's Form MD-1. Where a job involves a jurisdiction outside Maryland, that jurisdiction's own pesticide regulator applies instead.
This Site has not audited any partner's licence, certification or insurance and warrants nothing about their currency or scope. The licence number is available on request by calling (855) 974-4733, or from the technician who contacts you about scheduling, and can be requested before any product is applied; it is kept off these pages for the partner's privacy. Verification rests with the reader, through the Maryland Department of Agriculture's public licence and applicator searches.
Call for the licence number and check it with MDA (855) 974-4733

Safety and product labels
Pest control products must be used exactly as their labels direct; the label is the law. Do not mix products, apply restricted-use pesticides yourself or treat areas a label does not allow. Keep children and pets away from treated areas for as long as the technician advises.
Regulations
Structural pest control in Maryland is regulated by the state pesticide regulator. Rules and product approvals change; information on this Site is a summary, not legal or regulatory advice.
