Adam Warren
: I like Ivana's "pest control" - perhaps "pest infestation report specialist"?

: Termites are the most commonly checked "infestations" in France but I always have assumed that "parasitaire" refers to all forms of insect and rodent infestation

On second thoughts I think your suggestion of "pest control" is more natural. This firm (Audoise) deals with termites. See this link, this site uses the term "pest control"
http://www.termitecontrol.com.au/index.html
So maybe, "le cabinet Audoise, a pest control firm..."

Pest Control Consultant
"Un expert" is more often than not "a consultant" and "une expertise" a consultancy.
hence "cabinet d'expertise parasitaire" = a pest control consultant
A pest control consultant license and certificate are required if a person is engaged in the business of offering or supplying technical advice or supervision, inspecting for or identifying pests, or recommending the use of specific pesticides for the purpose of controlling pests.
