How Does a Missouri Certified Commercial Pesticide Applicator Bond Work?
As with all surety bonds, a commercial pesticide applicator bond creates a legal contract between three parties:
- Principal: You, the commercial pesticide applicator filing the bond
- Obligee: The Missouri Department of Agriculture, Plant Industries Division requiring the bond
- Surety: The provider issuing the bond
This holds you financially responsible for upholding all license obligations.
If you break the bond terms, harmed parties can file claims. The surety will pay valid claims up to the bond amount, but you are ultimately responsible for refunding the surety.
How Do I Renew My Bond?
These bonds expire annually. To renew your commercial pesticide applicator bond, simply pay your renewal invoice when prompted.
