To obtain a private applicator license, you must contact your local county extension agent as they administer private applicator licensing. A private applicator license allows private landowners to purchase and apply restricted herbicides. You will need to purchase a private applicator training manual, and you are required to take an applicator test. The fee is $50.00 and your license is then good for five years.
