Treatment records document preventive soil barriers, baiting systems, spot treatments, or major fumigation. Regular treatment (typically annual) provides ongoing protection. Lapsed treatment history may indicate infestation opportunity. Records help establish baseline conditions and monitor reinfestation. Professional pest control companies provide documentation and warranties.
Pro Tip
Keep detailed records of all pest treatments. Annual preventive treatments in high-risk areas reduce infestation likelihood.
Example
A home purchase contract required disclosure of treatment history. Records showed annual termite inspections and soil barrier treatment every 3-5 years, indicating consistent preventive maintenance.
