Education to Prevent Pesticide/Wildlife Incidents

Bee

In California, those holding licenses or certificates to handle, sell, or recommend pesticides are required to complete hours of continuing education classes. WIL personnel give presentations at these classes describing causes of pesticide-related wildlife exposure and preventative actions. In this way, licensed pesticide users are kept informed of the latest information available and are able to use pesticides more safely.
