Which code does this activity belong in?
Exterminating and Pest Control Services covers establishments that eliminate pests such as birds, mosquitoes, rodents, termites, and insects from buildings and other locations, including through fumigation. This industry excludes pest control activities conducted as part of crop production or forestry operations. The boundary with Janitorial Services lies in the pest control function itself; Janitorial Services covers general cleaning and sanitation without the specialized extermination focus that defines this industry.
