Pesticide testing to be held in Washington Dec. 12

Iowa Department of Ag and Land Stewardship (IDALS) will offer pesticide testing on Friday, Dec. 12, at the Washington County Extension office from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

All tests are available at this site and will be given on a first-come, first-serve basis. Tests are administered by the Iowa Department of Ag and Land Stewardship. Because it may be necessary to cancel or reschedule a test date or site, it is recommended you confirm the test time and site prior to travel.

Local testing will not be offered again until March 9, 2015, at the Washington County Conservation Center at Marr Park from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Testing will be offered again monthly at the Washington County Extension office beginning April 10, 2015.

Study materials are available from your local Extension office or online from Iowa State University: https://www.extension.iastate.edu/store/ then select ?Environment? on the left sidebar of the page.
