How often is a full inspection and report required to be filed on a property under a control service agreement?

A full inspection and report under a control service agreement is required to be filed once every three years. This time frame ensures that there is a thorough assessment of the property for any pest issues, allowing for appropriate treatments and management strategies to be implemented. Fewer inspections over a longer period can help streamline services while still providing adequate oversight to manage pest populations effectively.

While other frequencies of inspection such as yearly or semi-annual may seem practical for ensuring ongoing pest management, California regulations specify the three-year interval for the submission of a full report to maintain compliance and efficiency in pest control operations. This outer limit balances the need for regular assessment with practical scheduling and resource allocation for pest control professionals.
