Who We Are

The Association of Structural Pest Control Regulatory Officials (ASPCRO) is a professional association comprised of the state regulatory officials, responsible for regulating services provided by the structural pest control industry in their respective states. The Association’s primary goal is to protect public health in the management of household (structural) pests performed by professional pest control companies. ASPCRO accomplishes this goal through the ongoing working relationships it has with the structural pest control industry, federal partners such as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the pesticide chemical industry and academia, all working toward improving the public health services provided to consumers nationwide.
