Section C / Operator notes
What the register says about Bug Cops Pest Control, Inc.
Bug Cops Pest Control, Inc. holds pest control business licence no. JB148758 from the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS), Division of Agricultural Environmental Services. Active on the FDACS register, record dated 28 Aug 2026 (public records request P054357-082726), with the licence expiry recorded as 31 Aug 2027. The original issue date on file is 29 Mar 2007, so the pest control business licence was about 19 years old at the snapshot.
Florida issues one pest control business licence, and the FDACS public-records export does not carry the wood-destroying organism endorsement, so this record cannot say whether the business is certified for termite work. The same limit applies to all 10 licensed businesses listed in Palatka, FL. Ask which certified operator on the licence holds the WDO category, then check the licence number on the FDACS licensing portal before booking a termite inspection or treatment.
The registered address is 1098 N County Rd. 315, Melrose, FL 32666, in Putnam County. That places it in the Palatka, FL micropolitan area, where the FL register holds 10 licensed operators.
