Termite.com is a termite control Web site that directs potential termite customers to visit the site and then select their region, state, city etc. Then they are directed to a pest management professional in their area. In 1995, an independent committee of pest control experts joined to provide a comprehensive Web site with consumer protection advice to the general public regarding termites, termite control and pest control services.

"We believe a professional public awareness program is essential to improve pest control industry standards and promote world best practice pest control service," said Glenn DuBois, chairman, Termite.com advisory committee.

Termite.com is listed up front on Google, AOL, AltaVista, AlltheWeb, etc., for "termite control" search keywords, the company says. Each business is listed exclusively on the homepage for their locality, with extensive details on the business as required in order to promote their professional services to prospective customers. Most importantly, the company says, it only wants to be associated with professional and ethical pest control professionals who carry out best practice termite control and pest control services.
