Who MUST be certified in Categories 3A and 3B?

To apply products like Roundup or Bedweed Pre-Emergents you need to have a 3A Ornamental Pesticide License.

To apply any landscape pesticide including ones that are mixed on a fertilizer including Weed and Feed, Pre-Emergents you need to have a 3B Turf Pesticide License if you are applying to turf.

To apply fertilizer in NJ you need a ProFACT (Professional Fertilizer Applicator Certification) license. With this license you can only apply fertilizer products that don't contain pesticides.
