Horticulture Student FAQs

How can I get my Category 24 Pesticide License?

The Georgia Category 24 Pesticide License (Turf & Ornamentals) is earned after a test, administered at any technical college in Georgia. The licensing is through the Georgia Department of Agriculture. To study for a test, we recommend attending Landscape Pro University event in January. To take a test, get in touch with your county's UGA Cooperative Extension office, or ask your horticulture professor for test dates.
