3. Service Terms

3.1 Authorization & Access

By scheduling a pest control service, you authorize our licensed technicians to enter your property on the agreed date and time for the purpose of inspection, treatment, or follow-up service. You represent that you have the legal authority to grant such access. You agree to provide safe and reasonable access to all areas requiring treatment.

3.2 Scope of Service

Services are limited to those specified at the time of scheduling. Berner Pest Solutions is not responsible for pest issues arising from conditions outside the agreed scope of treatment, including re-infestation from neighboring properties, structural deficiencies, sanitation issues, or failure to follow pre- or post-treatment instructions.

3.3 Customer Preparation Responsibilities

Certain treatments require you to prepare the premises in advance: for example, removing pets and people from treatment areas, covering food and food-contact surfaces, clearing access points, or temporarily vacating the property. Specific preparation instructions will be provided prior to service. Berner Pest Solutions is not liable for adverse outcomes resulting from failure to follow preparation or post-treatment instructions.

3.4 Results Disclaimer

Pest control results vary based on pest species, infestation severity, structural conditions, environmental factors, and your cooperation with preparation and follow-up requirements. Except as expressly provided in a written warranty for a specific service, Berner Pest Solutions does not guarantee the complete or permanent elimination of any pest species. Re-infestation can occur due to factors outside our control. Re-treatment may be required and may be subject to additional charges depending on your service plan.

3.5 Re-Treatment Policy

Customers on ongoing service plans may be eligible for complimentary re-treatments between scheduled visits if pest activity returns, subject to the specific plan terms, proper preparation by the customer, and technician assessment. Unless the issue is covered by a written warranty for the original service, one-time service customers should contact us to discuss re-treatment options and applicable pricing.

3.6 Cancellation & No-Show Policy

Please notify us at least 24 hours in advance to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Repeated cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice or missed appointments without notice may result in a missed appointment fee or a requirement to prepay future services. We reserve the right to cancel or reschedule appointments due to technician availability, weather, or other circumstances, and will notify you as promptly as possible.

3.7 Payment Terms

Payment is due at the time of service unless otherwise agreed in writing. We accept major credit cards and other methods as indicated at the time of booking. Invoices not paid within 30 days of the service date may be subject to a late fee. Returned checks or declined payments may incur a processing fee. Delinquent balances may be referred to collections. Pricing is subject to change; customers on recurring plans will receive advance notice before any price change takes effect.

3.8 Property Damage Claims

Our technicians take care to perform services professionally and without unnecessary disruption to your property. We are not responsible for pre-existing structural damage, property conditions that facilitated pest access, or damage caused by the pests themselves. Any concern about property damage allegedly caused by a Berner Pest Solutions technician must be reported in writing within 48 hours of service to be considered.

3.9 Licensing & Compliance

Berner Pest Solutions operates under applicable Kentucky pesticide applicator licensing requirements governed by the Kentucky Department of Agriculture under KRS 217B. All treatments are performed by licensed, trained technicians. We use only EPA-registered products applied in strict accordance with label directions.

Some jurisdictions do not permit certain limitations on liability or implied warranty disclaimers. In those cases, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

7. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Berner Pest Solutions LLC and its officers, employees, agents, and successors from any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Site or our services; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any applicable law or third-party rights; or (d) false or inaccurate information you provided to us.

The statute of limitations applicable to any dispute is tolled during this 30-day period.

10. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. For any dispute not subject to arbitration under Section 11, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Fayette County, Kentucky, and waive any objection to venue in such courts.

11. Arbitration Agreement & Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

After completing the informal dispute process in Section 9, you and Berner Pest Solutions agree to resolve any remaining dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or our services (“Claim”) through binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except for Claims that qualify for small claims court and Claims relating to intellectual property (which either party may bring in court).

Class Action Waiver: YOU AND BERNER PEST SOLUTIONS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. No arbitrator may consolidate Claims of multiple persons or preside over any class proceeding.

Jury Trial Waiver: BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU AND BERNER PEST SOLUTIONS EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY.

Arbitration Process: Arbitration shall be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator under the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), available at www.adr.org. The arbitration may be conducted in person, by phone, or by document submission as agreed by the parties. The arbitrator may award any individual relief available in court. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Costs: Filing fees and arbitration costs are governed by the AAA Rules. If you demonstrate the costs of arbitration are prohibitive, we will consider covering a portion of those costs in our discretion.

Opt-Out: You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to info@bernerpest.com within 30 days of first agreeing to these Terms. Your opt-out will not affect any other provision of these Terms.

If any part of this arbitration provision is found invalid or unenforceable, that part shall be severed, and the remainder shall remain in full force.

12. General Provisions

Entire Agreement: These Terms, together with any service agreement or additional terms applicable to specific services, constitute the entire agreement between you and Berner Pest Solutions regarding the Site and our services and supersede all prior agreements.

Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, that provision shall be severed and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

Non-Waiver: Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision in the future.

Assignment: We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms at any time, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. You may not assign your rights under these Terms without our prior written consent.

Force Majeure: We shall not be liable for any delay or failure in performance resulting from causes beyond our reasonable control, including acts of nature, labor disputes, government actions, or utility failures.

Changes to Terms: We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be posted on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date. Continued use of the Site or our services after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
