If a termite infestation is detected shortly after an OGWIIReport has been issued, what is the obligation to issue a termite contract?

The obligation to issue a termite contract following the detection of a termite infestation shortly after an OGWII Report is contingent upon whether a contract was previously active. If no contract existed at the time of the infestation detection, there is no requirement to issue one. This aligns with standard practices in pest control and maintenance where existing contractual agreements typically dictate the responsibilities of the pest control service provider.

In scenarios where there is no active contract, the service provider is not legally bound to undertake further obligations, such as issuing a new termite contract, unless explicitly requested by the customer or mandated by specific regulations. This is important for understanding the implications of pest management contracts and the responsibilities that arise from them.
