Private Applicators Training March 3

A private applicators license is required by the state, in order to purchase restricted use pesticides. In order to obtain a license, it is mandatory to attend a pesticide applicator training and pass a 100-question test. This course will teach participants proper procedures for applying pesticides. This is the training only. Testing procedures will be explained during the training. A pesticide applicator training has been scheduled for Friday March 3.

The training will be held at the Fayette County Agricultural Building, 255 Svoboda Lane in La Grange. Registration will begin at 7:45 a.m. with the program beginning promptly at 8 a.m.

The cost of the program is $50 per person and you must pre-register at the Fayette County Extension Office by March 1. The registration fee will cover the study manual, handouts, and refreshments. Please bring a pen and/or pencil and a simple calculator to aid with the training.
