Proudly Serving the Hulet and Devils Tower Community
If you would like to be able to apply pesticides to your property, Crook County Weed & Pest encourages you to attend this fall’s local Private Pesticide Applicator Program class, hosted by UW Extension.
The class will be held from noon to 4 p.m. on November 13 in the community room of the Crook County Courthouse.
It is tailored for people who want to be able to apply or supervise the application of restricted use pesticides on their own or leased properties, or to do so for other people for no charge or as an exchange of services (in other words, non-commercially).
The class is also open to those who need four continuing education classes for their commercial license.
The class includes an overview of the certification requirements; an overview of pesticide laws and regulations; education on the use of pesticides including safety, handling, groundwater contamination, misuse, public concerns and disposal; and education on the safe use of equipment and calibration.
No exam is included in this class and your license will be issued after the class. Once you have received your license, you will be able to purchase restricted use pesticides.
If you are unable to attend the class, you can also schedule an appointment with the UW Extension Office to pass the exam required for your license.
