Registration Program?

B. Inspectors

B. Eight hours of training every five years per category
C. Four hours of training every five years per category

,D. Eight hours of training every two years per category

health and the environment. Proper use and disposal are part of these regulations.

5. Which of the following certification categories are not administered by the Georgia
Structural Pest Control Act?

A. Household Pest Control (HPC)
B. Lawn and Ornamental Pest Control (L&O)
C. Control of Wood Destroying Organisms (WDO)
D. Fumigation (F)
- CORRECT ANSWER: B) Lawn and Ornamental Pest Control (L&O)
Rationale: The Georgia Structural Pest Control Act does not cover Lawn and Ornamental Pest
Control. This category typically involves outdoor pest management and is regulated separately.

B. Effective date of contract and price of work
C. Renewal conditions and what happens if structure is changed

A. Subterranean and Drywood Termites
B. Carpenter Bees and Carpenter Ants
C. Powder Post Beetles
D. Wood Boring Beetles
E. Wood Decay Fungi
- CORRECT ANSWER: B. Carpenter Bees and Carpenter Ants
Rationale: These insects do not typically cause the same level of structural damage as termites
and other wood-destroying pests, and thus are not included in standard wood infestation
inspection reports.

8. Which of the following procedures is not a minimum treatment requirement for
subterranean termite jobs?

A. Remove wood debris from crawl spaces
B. Remove wood to earth contact of untreated wood
C. Remove termite tunnels

B. All services must be consistent with a school's written pest management policy
C. Application areas on outside school grounds must be clearly marked or secured by a fence or
similar barrier.
D. All services must be delivered by a Certified Applicator.
- CORRECT ANSWER: D. All services must be delivered by a Certified Applicator.
