§ 1993.4. Termite Monitoring Device.
(a) A “termite monitoring device” is defined as a device that:
(1) Solely provides an indication of the possible presence or absence of termites.
(2) Does not provide for positive identification of an infestation.
(3) Does not eliminate the need for an inspection conducted by a Branch 3 Operator or Field Representative prior to any treatment or work being performed.
(4) Does not contain any pesticides.
(5) Does not provide any control measures.
(b) Installation of any termite monitoring device must be performed by a registered Branch 3 company.
(c) Prior to installation of any termite monitoring device(s), the following disclosure language shall be provided in writing to the property owner or the property owner's designated agent:
“Termite monitoring devices are intended to solely provide an indication of the possible presence or absence of termites in the areas where such devices are installed. Termite monitoring devices do not replace the requirement for a termite inspection to be performed by a licensed termite inspector prior to the commencement of any treatment or work being performed. If the termite monitoring device indicates the possible presence of termites, you should consider having an inspection performed. You have the right to choose any registered company licensed to perform these services.”
