Expert Review Policy
TermiteHQ routes higher-risk termite education through expert review when professional context is needed before publication.
Core Standards
- Expert review is required or strongly recommended for active infestations, fumigation, pesticide safety, treatment selection, structural damage, report interpretation, warranties, commercial risk, and real-estate transaction context.
- Reviewers check practical accuracy, safety framing, professional decision boundaries, and whether the article clearly tells readers when to contact a qualified local professional.
- Expert review does not replace a property-specific inspection, treatment contract, pesticide label, structural assessment, legal advice, or local regulatory requirement.
- Review status should be stored in ACF fields and checked again in the AuraMSC Quality Gate before publishing.
- If a topic changes materially after publication, TermiteHQ may refresh the page and route it back through review.
How This Protects Readers
Termite decisions often involve inspection uncertainty, treatment cost, possible property damage, report language, warranty terms, and local professional requirements. This policy keeps TermiteHQ content useful without pretending to replace professional inspection, treatment, engineering, legal, or regulatory advice.
