rare these days so we encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity.
Interested individuals who are not licensed but wish to learn about these topics are
also welcome to attend.
Light refreshments will be served. Three Idaho recertification credits will be
offered to Idaho pesticide applicators. Reminder the seminar will be held at the
