Everything California Requires — Built In, Not Bolted On
No other pest control software handles all four of these.
California 43M-41 WDO Report
The official SPCB inspection report form, auto-populated from your inspection data. Section 1, Section 2, and Section 3 findings with property diagrams. Not a fillable PDF — a native generated report.
Consumer Notice (B&P Code §8516)
California law requires the Consumer Notice before any inspection. Bug HQ generates it, collects the client's signature, and stores it in the audit trail automatically — every single time.
Chemical Use Report (CDFA)
Monthly pesticide application records required by California law. Bug HQ compiles them automatically from every job — one click to export and file.
SPCB Filing Tracker
Track stamp inventory, filing deadlines, and submission status. Alerts before you run low or miss a window.
✨ BugBot and AI Diagram Scanner — Built In
Real AI built into the platform — not a marketing claim.
🤖 BugBot AI Assistant
24/7 pest control expert. Ask about treatment protocols, Vikane rates, SPCB regulations — instant accurate answers.
📐 AI Diagram Scanner
Sketch the property layout on paper during the inspection. AI converts your field photo into a positioned digital diagram for the 43M-41 report.

Case Study
From paper to platform: Ultimate Termite Control's switch to Bug HQ
Bug HQ was built by Ryan Berry, founder of Ultimate Termite Control — a California Branch 3 operator running WDO inspections across Orange County, Riverside County, the Inland Empire, and LA County (CA License #PR7791).
Before Bug HQ, Ultimate Termite Control ran on paper. Every inspection meant printed contracts, printed field sheets, hand-filled 43M-41 reports, and a stack of paperwork moving from technician to office every evening. Forms had to be re-bought when the box ran low. Reports got lost between truck and desk. Filing the SPCB stamps was its own end-of-day project.
Switching to Bug HQ ended that overnight. No more printed contracts. No more field sheets. Every inspection is captured on a tablet, the 43M-41 generates from the inspection data, the customer e-signs in the field, and the report files itself with SPCB.
The operational lift was the part Ryan didn't expect. Ultimate Termite Control tripled its inspection volume after the switch.
Bug HQ is the result. Pest control software built by a working California Branch 3 operator for the workflows other software doesn't handle.
