The agreement is only for the specific pests indicated herein and does not guarantee that the covered pest will not return to the property.

4. PERFORMANCE OF WORK

Superior Pest 1, LLC will exercise care while performing any work hereunder to try to avoid damaging any part of the structure(s), plants, or animals. Under no circumstances or conditions shall Superior Pest 1, LLC be responsible for damage caused by Superior Pest 1, LLC at the time the work is performed except those damages resulting from gross negligence on the part of Superior Pest 1, LLC. This agreement covers only the main structure listed on the agreement.

Pest Free Guarantee – the Pest Free Guarantee period is noted on the service agreement and is only applicable to customers with regular recurring service. Superior Pest 1, LLC will provide the necessary service at no charge to the customer, provided the customer has complied with the service agreement as outlined, cooperates with Superior Pest 1, LLC by maintaining an environment that is clean and sanitary and payments for services performed are paid within the agreed upon timeframe..

5. CUSTOMER'S RESPONSIBILITY

Your cooperation is important to ensure the most effective results from our services. Conditions conducive to breeding and harborage of pests must be removed to effectively treat certain pest problems. Customer understands that all services listed or added by mutual agreement must be followed in order to achieve the desired results of both the customer and Superior Pest 1, LLC. Superior Pest 1, LLC may provide specific preparation instructions and ongoing responsibilities that must be completed by the customer or tenant. If these instructions are not followed, we cannot guarantee the service provided and any/all guarantees shall be automatically revoked. Further, additional treatments in the areas that are not corrected will incur additional fees.

Services will be scheduled at regular intervals to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment. If customers' needs or circumstances warrant a change in frequency, this may result in a higher or lower cost per visit and also changes the guarantee period.

Our technicians must also be able to access the property on the set day and time to insure the most effective results from Hoper’s Pest Solutions. If access is denied on a scheduled treatment date, a customer is not available or responsive to repeated notifications, Superior Pest 1, LLC will have no liability in not fulfilling the terms of this service agreement or any extension thereof. For Residential customers, Superior Pest 1, LLC will perform an exterior service to all recurring program customers, to maintain the barrier and ensure the program guarantee at the cost of the regular treatment.

Customer understands that any products or special equipment provided by Superior Pest 1, LLC during the pest services at no cost or leased to the customer will be the customer’s responsibility. If the products are damaged or lost, the customer will be responsible for the replacement cost of such items and Superior Pest 1, LLC will replace them in a timely manner so the quality of service is not compromised. If a customer elects to not replace the items, Superior Pest 1, LLC will have no responsibility for any service problems resulting from not replacing the items.

The customer understands and agrees to communicate that ground traps cannot be tampered with, relocated or moved by its maintenance team, tenants or residents. Doing so will result in a charge for the service and the closure of the job.

6. CANCELLATION OF SCHEDULED SERVICE

Life happens! We get that and occasionally you’re going to have to miss an appointment because something comes up. Our policy for these events is to keep the appointment and treat the exterior/perimeter which will maintain your guarantee. Cancellation within a 24-hour period with a request to reschedule the appointment will incur a fee in accordance with the agreement in place at that time. Please understand that scheduling all of our customers on their preferred dates/times/locations is a challenge. We inform/remind all customers of their upcoming appointment(s) well in advance and more than once, so there is ample time to change the appointment prior to the 24 hour window. Canceling an appointment in the 24 hours prior to that appointment, does not allow us to schedule another customer, so the technician is getting paid for his/her hour with no revenue generated—costing the company money & time. So, please understand we are not trying to be punitive, but must pay our technicians for that time and without the revenue to cover that cost, it puts us in the hole.

7. CHANGE IN LAW

This Agreement shall be interpreted, regulated, and adjudicated in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations as they exist at the time this Agreement is executed. Should any federal, state, and local law regulation change regarding Superior Pest 1, LLC services, Superior Pest 1, LLC, is authorized to take whatever steps are necessary to be in compliance with said laws.

SUBTERRANEAN TERMITE BAITING STATIONS

TERMS, CONDITIONS & LIMITATIONS SECTION

The treatment covers only the main structure located on the property. No detached outbuildings, garages, fences, landscape timbers, or storage facilities are covered unless specifically outlined in this agreement. The service agreement and treatment does not include attached fences, trellis, retaining walls, or decks unless specifically outlined in the agreement.
Existing damage: Any structural damage identified on initial inspection or treatment caused by subterranean termites must be repaired as soon as possible by a qualified contractor at the owners' expense. This work must be completed by no later than the first anniversary of the initial treatment, unless waived by Superior Pest 1, LLC. Failure to comply may result in nullification of the service agreement.
Conducive conditions: Owner agrees to maintain the premises free from any condition which would contribute to re infestation by subterranean termites, including but not limited to the following: wood in direct contact with the soil, faulty drainage or plumbing, structural deficiencies which would allow excessive moisture conditions to exist that could continue or contribute to a secondary infestation of termites, and soil, mulch, or ground cover over siding, steps, or deck support posts. Any of the above conditions which are allowed to continue may void the agreement. Any additional inspections which are required to verify owner compliance will be charged a re-inspection fee. Failure of Superior Pest 1, LLC to notify the customer of the above conditions does not alter the customer's responsibility to uphold the provisions of this agreement.
Modifications: Owner will be responsible for notification ofSuperior Pest 1, LLC in advance of any structural additions or modifications such as new/replacement concrete slabs, room additions, decks, finishing basement, waterproofing, etc., so that any additional treatment or installation of baiting system components found necessary by Superior Pest 1, LLC can be scheduled prior to making any of the above changes. Such treatments are to be bid by Superior Pest 1, LLC and paid for by the customer. These treatments may require an adjustment in the annual service fee. Superior Pest 1, LLC will not be responsible for the altered portions of the structure, unless notified in advance by customer in writing and treated by Superior Pest 1, LLC. Failure to notify Superior Pest 1, LLC in advance may result in the nullification of this service agreement.
Hidden damage: Owner agrees that it is possible that hidden damage may be present and exist in areas of the identified structure which are inaccessible to visual inspection on date of inspection and/or treatment. Because this is possible, Superior Pest 1, LLC cannot guarantee that the damage disclosed by visual inspection represents the total of the damage that may exist as of the date of inspection and/or treatment and is therefore not responsible for repairs to or replacement of damage in these areas.
Coverage: Since termites are a living creature and it is impossible to predict if they will ever attempt to re-enter the listed structure, Superior Pest 1, LLC makes no guarantee that the termites will not attempt to re-enter the listed structure. Should any new subterranean termite infestation be discovered at the structure(s) identified while this agreement is in effect, Superior Pest 1, LLC will, upon notification by the customer and inspection by Superior Pest 1, LLC, provide for any corrective baiting or chemical treatment it finds necessary. This agreement is limited to re-treatment only providing there is a live active termite infestation. Superior Pest 1, LLC is in no way implied or otherwise responsible for damage caused by termites or the repair to any part of the above listed structure(s) or its contents, whether it occurs before, exists at the time of initial service or occurs after service is performed by Superior Pest 1, LLC. Customer will be responsible for preparation of areas requiring treatment, and will need to provide physical access to areas needing re-treatment. This may include removing floor covering, moving furniture or stored items, or other obstacles to treatment as specified by Superior Pest 1, LLC.
Payment: Owner agrees that payment will be made upon completion, either by cash, check, MasterCard, VISA, Discover, or American Express, unless other arrangements have been made. In case of nonpayment by the owner, usual and customary attorney and/or collection fees shall be paid by the owner. The obligation of Superior Pest 1, LLC under this agreement is conditioned upon payment in full of the agreed upon price as set forth in this agreement. Failure to pay the entire bill in a timely manner shall nullify this agreement and will immediately discharge Superior Pest 1, LLC of any and all liability including treatments, inspections, monitoring or service obligations. Any amount paid by customer shall become the property of Superior Pest 1, LLC as liquidated damages. After customer is notified, all system components will be removed by Superior Pest 1, LLC.
Arbitration: The property owner and Superior Pest 1, LLC agree that should any claim, dispute or controversy arise out of this agreement between the two parties or against the other, or the employees, or agents of the other regarding the services performed under this agreement to the identified structure, including the applicability of this arbitration clause, that both parties agree to settle such dispute or controversy by arbitration conducted by a reputable local arbitration service mutually agreed upon by both parties. The parties understand that they would have had a right to litigate the dispute through a court, but they chose to have arbitration decide any disputes instead. The decision of the arbitrator shall be a final and binding resolution of the dispute which may be entered as a judgment by any court of competent jurisdiction. It is further agreed that neither party will file a suit against the other party except for enforcement of the arbitrator's decision. In no event shall either party be liable to the other for any consequential, special or incidental charges.

Limitation of liability: The property owner and Superior Pest 1, LLC agree that in no event shall either party be liable to the other for any consequential, special, incidental, or compensatory damages relating to the service provided under this service agreement Superior Pest 1, LLC will also not be liable for any increased costs, loss of enjoyment, business interruption, or any stigma/loss of value due to the presence of subterranean termites or their damage.

Service Guidelines & Specifications for Baiting Systems

Superior Pest 1, LLC will note where the stations will be located around the property.
Superior Pest 1, LLC will perform the following:

Install the baiting system around the property/structure listed in the Service Agreement.
Monitor the stations for the period of time noted in the agreement from the date of installation on the interval determined by the termite activity in the stations, the time of year, weather conditions and manufacturer recommendations.
The results of our checks will be communicated via email with the customer.

2. CUSTOMER'S UNDERSTANDING

Customer understands the following:

a. Intervals between the installation of the stations and termites actually discovering the station(s) and consuming the bait can range from one to many months.

b. Similarly, elimination of the active termite colony can also take from one to many months after the installation of the stations.

Expectations & Limitations

Customer also understands that during the above mentioned intervals possible additional termite damage should be expected to occur.

Additional services, such as ground bait stations or application of spot termiticide are available on a short-term basis, if needed. The active ingredient in the baiting system is a slow acting process that may take several weeks to several months to eliminate the active termite colony.

Customer also agrees and understands that:

If 20% or more of the installed stations are removed or damaged, Superior Pest 1, LLC reserves the right to charge for reinstallation or repair of the stations. Such fees would be subject to the standard payment terms and failure to pay these would result in nullification of this agreement.
The components of the system will remain the property of Superior Pest 1, LLC. The customer has no rights to any of the components other than their use as installed on the customer’s premises under this agreement.
Upon the expiration or termination of this agreement, Superior Pest 1, LLC or its representatives are authorized by the customer to retrieve the stations and other components for appropriate disposition.

3. PERFORMANCE OF WORK

Superior Pest 1, LLC will exercise care while performing any work during the installation of the bait system but will not be responsible for utility or sprinkler lines. We request that all electric, gas, water, telephone, cable, dog fence or sprinkler system lines, etc. be marked by the applicable party within a 10-foot perimeter of the structure. Any lines not marked by customer’s service vendors will be the customer’s responsibility to mark. Superior Pest 1, LLC will not be responsible for any damage caused to those lines in the installation of the baiting system.

Additionally, at no time, will Superior Pest 1, LLC be responsible for damages during the installation of the bait system except those caused by gross negligence on the part of Superior Pest 1, LLC.

4. ENTIRE AGREEMENT & NOTICE OF CLAIMS

Any proposal or other agreement between the Customer and Superior Pest 1, LLC that contains a direct link to this attachment(s) or refers to it as part of the Agreement and is signed by an authorized representative of Superior Pest 1, LLC and Customer, constitutes the entire Agreement between the parties and no other representation or statements, whether oral or written, will be binding upon the parties.
