Not all pest control products used for pest management are registered, regulated pesticides. Some of the common examples are glue boards used for rodent control or EPA-exempt insecticides formulated entirely from natural botanical extracts. These pest control products do not have EPA Registration Numbers and do not require registration with New York State. These products do not need to be included in your PRL report.  Other product that are sometimes mistakenly reported are fertilizers, adjuvants, surfactants and active ingredients.

 

Be certain that the product in question is exempt from reporting requirements — and that you have not just missed the EPA Registration Number on the pesticide label. If you have any questions or concerns, contact the NYS DEC.
