Pesticide Use
The Monterey Peninsula unified School District provides parents the name of all pesticide products expected to be applied at school facilities during the school year in its annual Parent/Guardian and Student Information Handbook.
Only fully certified pesticides can be used on school grounds. This includes the name and active ingredients. The school's Integrated Pest Management Plan (IPM) is updated by June 30th of each year. The IPM, pesticide names and active ingredients, and application dates are posted on the school and/or district website.
Parents and guardians may register with the school or district if they wish to receive notification of pesticide applications at a particular school or facility. Notice of an application and written notice of unlisted pesticide use will be given 72 hours in advance. For an emergency application, 72 hours notice will be the goal. Each area of the school where pesticide is being used will be identified by a posted warning 24 hours before (or upon application, if an emergency) through 72 hours after use.
