What must you do if a pesticide sensitive person cannot be contacted prior to application?

• A. Provide written notice on their door at the time of application
• B. Publish a notice in local newspaper
• C. Post on social media
• D. Send an email after application

Answer: (A)

When a pesticide sensitive person can’t be contacted before treatment, the aim is to ensure they’re informed in a timely and location-specific way. Post a written notice on the door at the time you apply the pesticide so anyone entering the space—and the person who lives or cares for them—knows a treatment is happening and can take appropriate precautions. This method provides immediate, direct notice right where it matters. Publishing in a local newspaper, posting on social media, or sending an email after the application wouldn’t reliably alert the specific residence before exposure, and they don’t meet the required need for on-site, upfront notification.
