Why is pest insurance important?
Harsh chemicals, property damage, specialist equipment, and more – getting rid of pests comes with significant risk, even for the professionals. If a claim arrived and you needed to pay compensation, would you have the funds ready? From public and product liability cover to tools insurance and personal accident protection, a pest control insurance policy can provide a backstop for your business.
- pest control liability insurance, for third party injuries and property damage
- rated 4.6/5 based on 39.9K public liability customer reviews
- optional personal accident cover for your own injuries, or anyone on the policy
Insurance for pest control – what’s covered?
Typically, we’ll start with public and product liability insurance, designed to protect pest control professionals against claims for third party injuries and property damage. From there, you can choose to include employers’ liability insurance, plus other popular covers – tools and stock protection are a priority for many pest professionals, as well as personal accident cover for your own injuries.
