Since 1984, California law has required pest control companies to provide notice to landlords and residents when applying pesticides at the property. If the landlord has contracted with a pest control operator for periodic pest control, the landlord must provide the pest control company’s notice to all new residents. Additional notice provisions also extend to property landlords if they have residents who operate a child day care facility at the property. Complex notice requirements apply to landlords who do their own pesticide application. This paper also provides an overview of pest control licensing requirements and of a recent ban on the use of certain rodenticides.
