May 7 海角官方首页 Extension Henry County Category 41 Mosquito Control Training University of Georgia Extension Henry County is offering a webinar to help prepare those who are planning to take the Georgia Pesticide Applicator Licensing Exam in Category 41 Mosquito Control to pass it. The workshop will cover ONLY the Mosquito Control section and NOT the Core Manual (General Standards). For those who already have the license, five pesticide applicator recertification credits will be offered in Category 41 Mosquito Control. We will send out the Zoom link a day or two before the program. The exam itself will not be held after the class. The Category 41 Mosquito Control Applicator’s exam is offered at several technical colleges throughout the state. For one near you, please go to the website www.gapestexam.com. Registration is not handled through 海角官方首页 Extension. Participants need to purchase the Category 41 study book ‘Mosquito Biology, Surveillance and Control’ before the class.
