GREAT WESTERN CONFERENCE 2025 COMING SOON!MASTERMINDSMany talented and competent leaders share similar struggles as you, and they can offer a unique and objective perspective to whatever challenge you’re facing. After all, when it comes to problem solving, two (or more) heads are always better than one. Join us quarterly, on the second Thursday from 1:00 pm until 2:00 pm for a peer-to-peer mentoring group where members give their input and advice to help other members grow their business. Each session will feature a specific challenge that business owners and top level managers encounter and registration is open and free to all AzPPO members.

While such products may be considered (in the legal sense) a pesticide, they are pretty much the same type of products janitorial and custodial workers use; yet, we do not require them to be licensed. In fact, there is an exemption in our laws for those who use such products. Anyone creating a "Covid-19" disinfection service" in Arizona should note that it is not a program that we as an agency have recommended or promoted, anymore than we would of a cleaning company applying disinfectants. However, because disinfectants are classified by EPA to be pesticides, and because we have primacy over the use of a pesticide in Arizona, we will still enforce the laws as it relates to label instructions." - Vince Craig, Associate Director Arizona Department of Agriculture, Pest Management Division PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENTAzPPO provides pest professionals with expert advice on inspection reporting, pest applications, state mandated information, reporting requirements, CE requirements, OSHA requirements and MORE!
