What New York license categories mean

New York licenses carry category codes that say what work the license covers. These are the categories that appear on the records PestPin processes, with the official category names:

New York pest control license categories and official names
CodeOfficial category
8Public Health

A code on a record means the license covers that category of work. It does not confirm the company currently offers the service; ask the company directly.
