Specific rules and regulations:
Reference material you won't find anywhere else:
Extensive appendix full of California State reference materials and forms, as well as many extras—TOTAL OF 247 PAGES!

For so many years I tried to find materials to teach new technicians the rules that the government passes down for all of us to follow, and present it in a way that the student wouldn’t fall asleep. I also had a hard time outlining what I had read so as to make it easy to review. With the technician in mind we have developed this training manual combining many factors of the business. We have outlined it for easy review, splitting it up between laws and all the other aspects of the business which technicians will need to understand. We also designed it to be used as a reference book that can be carried on the job, as it has many aspects of identification for the common insects, weeds, and funguses that are usually encountered. This is not intended to be an all-encompassing book, but I wish I could have found all of this information in one place when I took the exam over forty years ago. It is now even more difficult!

WHAT ARE PEST CONTROL COMPANIES ARE SAYING ABOUT THE BOOK

• We now have a go-to guide to help our technicians pass the state exam. The overall insect, pesticide, and industry information was so useful that we now have the guides in every branch in the various states we operate--Technical Director
• We do a great job training new hires for the state exam but our failure rate is still higher than I would like. The two technicians that recently passed the exam said that this guide was instrumental in their passing. Need I say more?--Owner
• After failing the exam the first time this study guide helped me pass the exam on my next try--PCO
• I wish I had this guide 10 yrs ago! It is now a staple part of our new technician training program--Owner
• We found that our office staff loved it even more than the technicians because they continually went to the book for pest information for our clients—General Manager
