KNOW ALL PERSONS BY THESE PRESENTS, that I, [principal_name] (the "Principal"), a resident of the State of [state_law], being of sound mind and under no duress, do hereby make, constitute, and appoint [agent_name] (the "Agent" or "Attorney-in-Fact") as my true and lawful Agent, to act for me and in my name, place, and stead, with respect to the powers and authority described herein.
WHEREAS, the Principal desires to appoint the Agent to act on the Principal's behalf with respect to certain matters, as more particularly described herein; and
WHEREAS, the Agent is willing to accept such appointment and to act in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this instrument; and
WHEREAS, the Principal intends this Power of Attorney to be governed by the laws of the State of [state_law] and all applicable provisions of the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Principal hereby declares and grants this Power of Attorney as follows:
The Principal hereby appoints [agent_name] as the Principal's Attorney-in-Fact (the "Agent"). The Agent shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Principal in all matters described in this instrument, subject to any limitations expressly set forth herein. The Agent shall exercise such powers in a fiduciary capacity, in good faith, and in the best interests of the Principal at all times. The Agent shall act with the care, competence, and diligence ordinarily exercised by agents in similar circumstances and shall not engage in any self-dealing or conflict of interest unless expressly authorized herein.
The authority granted to the Agent under this Power of Attorney is designated as follows and shall be construed in accordance with the applicable type of authority selected below.
Subject to the type of authority designated above, the Principal hereby grants the Agent the following specific powers and authority: [powers_granted] The Agent shall exercise the foregoing powers prudently and in the Principal's best interests. In the event of any ambiguity regarding the scope of the powers granted herein, such ambiguity shall be resolved in favor of granting the Agent the authority reasonably necessary to carry out the Principal's stated intentions. The Agent may employ and compensate, at the Principal's expense, such professionals, advisors, accountants, and attorneys as the Agent deems reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of the Agent's duties hereunder.
This Power of Attorney shall become effective as of 2026-04-07, subject to any springing provisions described in Section 2 above.
This Power of Attorney shall expire and terminate automatically on 2026-04-07, unless sooner revoked by the Principal or terminated by operation of law. Upon the expiration date, the Agent's authority under this instrument shall cease immediately, and the Agent shall have no further power to act on the Principal's behalf. Any actions taken by the Agent after the expiration date shall be void and of no legal effect.
Any third party who receives a copy of this Power of Attorney, whether original, photocopy, or electronically transmitted, may rely upon the authority granted herein and may act in accordance with the Agent's instructions without liability to the Principal or the Principal's estate, heirs, or assigns. No third party shall be required to inquire into the validity or continuing effectiveness of this instrument, nor shall any third party be liable for acting in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney. A third party who refuses to honor this Power of Attorney may be liable for attorneys' fees and damages as provided by applicable law. The Principal hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any third party who acts in good faith reliance upon the representations and authority of the Agent under this instrument.
The Principal reserves the right to revoke, amend, or modify this Power of Attorney at any time, provided that the Principal has the legal capacity to do so. Any revocation, amendment, or modification shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery of written notice to the Agent and to any third party who has previously relied upon this instrument. Until a third party receives actual written notice of revocation, such third party may continue to rely upon the authority granted herein and shall not be liable for any actions taken in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney prior to receiving such notice. Upon revocation, the Agent shall promptly return to the Principal all documents, records, property, and funds in the Agent's possession or control that belong to or relate to the affairs of the Principal.
This Power of Attorney shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of [state_law], including but not limited to the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted by the State of [state_law] and any amendments thereto. The Principal consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of [state_law] for the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to this instrument. If any provision of this Power of Attorney is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed from this instrument and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
The Agent is hereby authorized to execute all necessary documents required by the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Colorado Department of Agriculture. This includes, but is not limited to, the maintenance of pesticide application records, the submission of inspection reports, and ensuring that all treatment plans comply with the Colorado Consumer Protection Act regarding transparent disclosure of chemical usage. The Agent shall ensure all applications are consistent with label requirements as mandated by the EPA and OSHA chemical handling standards.
In the exercise of personnel-related powers, the Agent shall strictly adhere to Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-5-201, ensuring all job postings and compensation adjustments meet the required pay transparency standards. Furthermore, the Agent shall not execute any non-compete agreements on behalf of the Principal that violate the restrictions set forth in Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-2-113, recognizing that such agreements are generally void in the State of Colorado unless specifically meeting an exception for trade secret protection or highly compensated employees.
The Agent is authorized to enter into and renew Termite Bonds and service warranties; however, the Agent must include a Limitation of Liability clause in all such contracts to the maximum extent permitted by Colorado Law. This clause must specifically disclaim liability for pre-existing structural damage and limit the Principal’s exposure to the total value of the treatment plan, unless otherwise required by law, to mitigate the risk of litigation arising from chemical exposure or alleged property damage during the course of pest control services.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed this Power of Attorney on the date first written above.

Name: Principal
Date: 2026-04-07
In the highly regulated Colorado pest control industry, being unavailable to sign off on termite bonds, inspection reports, or EPA-mandated chemical logs can halt your operations and trigger regulatory fines. This Power of Attorney allows a trusted agent to manage your service routes, handle recurring service disputes, and ensure compliance with the Colorado Consumer Protection Act even when you are absent. By designating an agent with specific authority over chemical handling and property treatment plans, you mitigate risks associated with OSHA standards and FIFRA regulations while maintaining business continuity in the Centennial State.
Yes, if specifically granted in the 'Powers Granted' section. In Colorado, a designated agent can be authorized to manage pesticide application records and ensure that disposal procedures meet federal FIFRA and state-specific environmental standards, provided they hold the necessary certifications or are acting under your direct business license authority.
A POA grants administrative and operational authority, but it should be paired with the liability mitigation strategies outlined in your document. Our Colorado version includes clauses for compliance with OSHA chemicals standards and the Colorado Consumer Protection Act to ensure that your agent's actions regarding treatment plans and inspection reports do not inadvertently increase your litigation risk.
Under Colo. Rev. Stat. § 8-2-113, non-compete agreements are strictly limited. When granting power to an agent who may also be an employee, it is critical that the POA does not attempt to enforce illegal restrictive covenants. Our document is structured to respect Colorado's executive and trade secret exceptions while ensuring your agent's loyalty during the term of their authority.
Yes. To be legally enforceable and accepted by Colorado financial institutions or regulatory bodies like the CDA (Colorado Department of Agriculture), the document must be signed by the Principal in the presence of a Notary Public to verify capacity and intent.
