Earn 1 CEUs in GHP. This module has 2 sections. Each section presents information on recognition of cockroaches as urban pests. These are the most important pests of residences, restaurants, and food handling establishments. Some of these cockroaches are domestic, meaning that they live and develop indoors. Others are peridomestic, meaning that they live and develop outside around structures, but invade from the perimeter. Management practices are different for these 2 major categories of cockroaches.You can print out the notes pages so the information is available for you to study. Each section has a lecture followed by questions. Upon satisfactory completion of the module (>75%) you will receive a form for 1 CEUs to print and return to FDACS at the time of pesticide license renewal.
