Does insurance cover key industry risks like pesticide spills, equipment theft, or environmental damage?

Yes, with the right policies: 

  • General Liability can help if pesticide application causes property damage, like staining siding or damaging landscaping. 
  • Workers’ Compensation covers employee health issues such as pesticide-related illness or injury from equipment. 
  • Commercial Property or Equipment Coverage protects sprayers, traps, and other tools from theft or fire. 
  • Pollution Liability may be necessary if spills or chemical misuse cause environmental contamination or regulatory fines. 

Because pest control work involves toxic substances, protecting against chemical and environmental risks is a critical part of staying compliant and safe.
