Orkin to do $6M fix-up at termite-infested condos

October 8, 2008

Pest-exterminating giant Orkin has pledged to repair a termite-ravaged condominium complex in Sumter County as part of a legal settlement that could cost the company an estimated $6 million in fix-up costs.

The company did not accept responsibility for pest damage at the Sandalwood Condominium Association at Wildwood, a 104-unit residential community near the intersection of State Road 44 and County Road 468.

But Peter M. Cardillo, known as the “bug lawyer” because his Tampa-based practice specializes in termite cases, said the company failed to properly treat Sandalwood’s 13 residential buildings and clubhouse, rid the complex of the wood-eating pests or live up to other promises and guarantees in its contract.

Orkin spokeswoman Martha Craft acknowledged the resolution of the lawsuit but would not comment further “until everything has been formalized.”

The civil trial was set to begin next month and last three weeks.
