What is Pest Control Insurance?

Pest control insurance is a special type of commercial insurance specifically designed for pest control businesses. Pest control insurance is a comprehensive plan which covers both your employees, equipment and any liability your company may be held to in the event that something goes wrong on a job. 

Employees

Employees of pest control services are exposed to special risks when they are performing their jobs. When dealing with pest infestations employees may be exposed to bites, stings or even sickness due to exposure to the pests. Pest control insurance helps to provide the additional insurance coverage that your employees need in order to stay safe and healthy while employed with you. 

Equipment

Any pest control service will have equipment which is vital to the functionality of your business. During the course of doing regular business, this equipment will be exposed to normal wear and tear as well as the risk of damage. Pest control insurance also covers your equipment. You have a lot of money invested in your equipment, and your insurance will ensure that you do not put that investment at risk. 

Liability

The very nature of pest control places you and your employees inside of people’s homes. While working in people’s homes there is a special risk of damage or other problems that could put you at risk of liability. Pest control insurance covers your company in the event that something goes wrong that would make you liable.
