Private Pesticide Applicator Class

February 18, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm

$60.00

Need a Private Pesticide Applicator License to do weed and brush spraying on your own property? Our next Private Pesticide Applicator License Training will be Friday, February 18, 2022 from 1:00pm to 4:00 pm, here at the Wise County AgriLife Extension Office, 206 S. State Street, Decatur TX, 76234. The cost is $60 which includes two training manuals and all the necessary forms you will need to send in to TDA and take the test. The Texas Department of Agriculture license fee is $100 and the required exam will cost $64 and the nearest location to take the exam is Ft Worth or Wichita Falls.

Once you pass the test and receive your license from TDA, it is good for 5 years and you will need to accumulate 15 Continuing Education Units (CEU’s) in that five year period. Of the 15 that TDA requires, 2 CEU’s must be for Laws & Regulations and 2 for Integrated Pest Management, the remaining 11 can be generals or a mix of any of them. You may attend our educational programs we put on throughout the year to acquire the needed CEU’s.

The training class is limited to the first 6 people so if you would like to take this training please contact our office at 940-627-3341.

Please note: The Private Pesticide Applicator License is for agricultural producers and land owners who apply restricted use pesticides to their own property. If you want to do spraying for your neighbor or for hire with a restricted use pesticide you will need to get a Commercial License, the annual fee for this is $200, and you are required to acquire 5 CEU’s per year and renew your license annually. Unlike the Private Applicator license, you do not have to take a training class for a commercial or noncommercial license but I highly recommend you take our training as it will help you prepare for the test. And we provide you with the two manuals you will need for any license.
