Additional Pesticide Training & Testing Dates Added
|
|
Kentucky law requires that anyone spraying Pesticides be licensed to do so. To prepare workers to take the certification exam, we provide six hours of instruction, and at the completion of the training, the Department of Agriculture administers the exam. With the material fresh in their minds, 90 percent of workers pass the exam the first time. Training is available for the following categories:
Category 3: Ornamental and Lawn Care
Category 5: Aquatic Pest Control
Category 6: Right-of-Way Pest Control
T2 has added two more Training & Testing dates to our calendar:
March 6
- Natural Bridge State Resort Park, Slade
(Click the date to register.)
