Arizona Structural Pest Control Commission

The Commission was established to protect the public from chemical harm and harm caused by inadequate or improper structural pest control through licensing and regulating pest control businesses and applicators. Although the Commission appropriately investigated most inquiries and complaints, it should improve investigation timeliness and develop policies for violations its staff handle. Additionally, the Commission should ensure that all companies are inspected at least every 2 years, and that additional inspections are selected based on recently developed guidelines. Finally, the Commission should continue its efforts to improve its information management systems.
