The Structural Pest Control Board regulates the performance of any of the following: identification of infestations or infections; the making of an inspection for the purpose of identifying infestations or infections; the making of inspection reports; recommendations, estimates and bids for work to be performed; the making of contracts; and regulating the use of chemicals or mechanical devices used in controlling or preventing infestations or infections of such pests or organisms.
