AQUATIC PEST CONTROL
These are one-day 4-hour Pesticide Training Classes for recertification credits.
This is an annual class that is held every fall.
To apply pesticides in aquatic environments, like lakes and ponds, you need an Aquatic Pest Control License. This requires passing exams and meeting specific experience or training requirements. Requirements for licensing and re-certification vary by state.
