As of today (11/1/19), there are only two months remaining in the current private pesticide license block. The block ends on 12/31/19. This means private applicators have until the end of December to earn the 5 pesticide credits (CEUs) needed to renew their licenses.
To check the number of credits you have, visit the Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) website, type in your last name and hit “Run Applicator Report”. Again, if you still need credits, the deadline to get them is 12/31.
To find opportunities to earn credits, click on the “Upcoming Events” tab on this website or contact your local Clemson Extension office.
Once you have earned the 5 required credits, don’t forget to fill out and return your renewal paperwork to DPR. If you have 5 credits and do not receive renewal paperwork from DPR in the mail by the end of the year, please reach out to them. Their contact info can be found here.
