The Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services — the state agency that licenses and regulates pest control businesses and pesticide applicators in Virginia.

VDACS oversees pesticide applicator certification in Virginia, split into categories — for example, Category 7A covers general household pest control, while Category 7B covers wood-destroying insects (termite work) specifically, requiring a separate certification.
