Who is responsible for posting notices for pesticide applications?

Who is responsible for posting notices for pesticide applications?

• A. Residents and owners.
• B. Tenants.
• C. Applicators and owners.
• D. The general public.

Answer: (C)

Posting notices for pesticide applications is a duty shared by the person applying the pesticide and the property owner (or owner’s authorized agent). The label and state rules require that occupants be informed before and during an application, with notices kept in place for the required period after treatment. This protects people from exposure and helps them know when it’s safe to re-enter. Tenants or the general public aren’t responsible for posting notices; they may see the notices, but the responsibility lies with the applicator and the owner/manager.
