I would think that you need a license to apply the chemicals. I don't know what chemicals are used now. I remember before a lot of pesticides were restricted, to treat for ground termites, my dad mixed up a 50 gal. drum of a chlordane solution and poured it along the foundation with a coffee can, sometimes crawling on his hands and knees! He lived to 91 years, healthy to the end, but I would never have guessed that he didn't poison himself.
