Under what condition can a preventive termite treatment permit be suspended?

A preventive termite treatment permit can be suspended if the permit holder has three contacts within a two-year period. This condition is typically tied to the regulatory framework that governs pest control practices. The rationale behind this rule is to maintain a high standard of pest control services and ensure that permit holders remain diligent in their practices. A history of three contacts suggests potential issues with the effectiveness of treatments or customer satisfaction. This level of scrutiny helps protect consumers from inadequate pest management solutions and ensures compliance with established standards in the industry.

In contrast, while the application of pesticides without a license and the use of expired products are serious transgressions that can lead to legal repercussions, they fall under different regulatory measures that may be more severe or different in consequence. Miscommunication with clients is also problematic but does not specifically trigger a permit suspension as prescribed for multiple contacts with clients.
