What are the two categories of pesticide sales licenses in Michigan?

In Michigan, the licensing of pesticide dealers is categorized based on the nature of their business and the type of customers they serve. The correct answer identifies the two categories as commercial and private pesticide dealers.

Commercial pesticide dealers are those who sell pesticides to businesses, such as agricultural producers or licensed pest control operators, and they often provide services that involve pesticide application. On the other hand, private pesticide dealers supply pesticides intended for use by individuals for their own agricultural production or personal pest management, typically not offering services for commercial applications.

This categorization helps regulate the distribution of pesticides according to their use and ensures that those who apply pesticides commercially are adequately trained and certified to handle these chemicals safely and effectively, thereby promoting public safety and environmental health.
