How to become a termite inspector in Texas

At Pest Inspection Network or PIN, we like to keep it simple, we offer training (at a cost) however as long as you keep up with your CE’s, and we will help you with that, and you keep us in the loop on your inspections, IE: send us your reports, it will all go great. 

Becoming an inspector is simple, just take a few classes, 1 - 8 hour termite class (by A&M) and 1 - 6 hour ZOOM class.  20 hours self study and 40 hours OJT (OJT comes mostly from your home inspections) then you take a 50-question test (you pay for that, $64) and in about a month from start to finish you will have your license and will be adding $$ to your Home Inspections. PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU WILL HAVE THREE (3) MONTHS TO COMPLETE YOUR TRAINING AND TEST (after that you will be released from our training and all work and money will be wasted. If you don't have time to complete this licensing in that time, please don't sign up until you do.)

The cost for all this is $850.00.

We pay the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) Application fee, the A&M class fee and we supply you with all the study materials you could ever want and we will supply you with a template for your under the counter stickers.

Once you have your license, whenever you do a WDI (Termite) inspection your client is also our client. You charge what ever you want for your inspections, we as your "Employer" are charging the client $16.85 plus tax on each report you write, (you collect this fee)** the rest is yours.  We bill you every week for the inspections that you did that week. (every report you write we get a copy of)

We will bill you once per week on the reports you have sent us for the week before, 

NO PRE-BILLING.
