Wisconsin maintains a Landscape Pesticide Registry. If you're not familiar with it, you ​might wonder what the registry is and what it can do for you, and what may be required from your company. 

Registrant Information​

The Landscape Pesticide Registry allows Wisconsin residents to be notified at least 12 hours prior to a commercial pesticide application to any address located on the block you live on, or blocks that are immediately adjacent. This service is offered by the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP). To be on the registry, you must annually online or by paper application between November 1 and February 1. You must reapply annually to be on the registry for the following season. During the registration process, you will provide your email and phone number. DATCP will use your email to contact you (if necessary) and the commercial pesticide applicators will use your phone number to give you notice of the landscape application.

This is NOT available for plain fertilizer applications or for pesticide applications to: 

• Properties beyond your block or adjacent blocks
  
• Farm fields or other agricultural productions
  
• Buildings
• Utility or transportation rights-of-way.​ ​
  
  

​Business Information

Each year on March 15, the Landscape Pesticide Registry list goes live on this webpage. Once the list is published, there are no revisions made to it. If the customers’ addresses are on the list, you will need to contact the registrants who asked to be notified at least 12 hours prior to the landscape application. Landscape applications include spraying for mosquitos, as well as turf and ornamental applications.
