The National Pest Management Association (NPMA) released a revised version of the NPMA-33 Wood Destroying Insect Inspection Form this year. The revised NPMA-33 form is available for purchase as a hard copy through NPMA’s BugStore, or as a digital form on the newly redesigned forms website: www.npmaforms.com.

NPMA hosted a webinar highlighting the changes to the NPMA-33 form in August. If you missed the training course, you can view the recording on NPMA’s Online Learning Center to learn about the new and improved form. The previous edition of this form will become obsolete after December 31, 2019.

For questions on purchasing NPMA forms or the new NPMA forms website, contact Michael Bentley at mbentley@pestworld.org. Please direct all questions or concerns regarding the updated NPMA-33 form to Jim Fredericks at jfredericks@pestworld.org.
