# Affiliate disclosure


**At present this site carries no affiliate links and no advertising, and earns nothing.**

We are publishing this policy in advance so it is on record before any money is involved.

## If affiliate links are introduced

They will appear only on genuinely appropriate products — monitors and traps, exclusion materials, mattress encasements, moisture meters, and inspection tools.

**They will never point to a pesticide product of any kind**, and never to a restricted-use pesticide, rodenticide, or fumigant.

They will be **prohibited entirely** on the regulations, health, tenant rights, and prevention branches, and on any page whose verdict is "professional required" — regardless of any configuration setting. This is enforced in the build, not by policy alone.

Every affiliate link will carry `rel="sponsored nofollow"` and a visible disclosure above the fold, per the FTC's Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 CFR Part 255).

## What will not change

A recommendation will never be influenced by whether a product carries a commission. In particular, the prevention branch — where the honest answer is frequently "seal the gap yourself, you do not need to buy anything" — will remain free of commercial links entirely. That answer is the reason this site exists, and monetising it would destroy the thing that makes it worth reading.
