OCPE Category-7A-General-and-Household-Pest-Control Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

Under the New Jersey School IPM Act (N.J.A.C. 7:30-13), commercial pesticide applicators must notify the School IPM Coordinator and students, faculty, and staff of pesticide applications on school property. This includes advance notice (at least 72 hours prior) and posting signs at the application site. TheGeneral Pest Management: Guide for Commercial Applicators - Category 7A(Chapter 4: IPM in Schools) aligns with these requirements. Option A is incorrect because schools are also required to notify, but the applicator has a direct responsibility. Option C is incorrect, as notification is mandatory, not optional.

The second most common cause of pesticide poisoning for applicators is inhalation, as pesticides can be inhaled as vapors, mists, or dusts during mixing or application, especially in enclosed spaces. TheGeneral Pest Management: Guide for Commercial Applicators - Category 7A(Chapter 3: Pesticide Safety) notes that inhalation exposure often follows dermal exposure (the most common cause, see Question 18) in frequency. Option A (fire) is not a common cause of poisoning, though it poses other risks. Option C (dermal exposure) is the most common cause, not the second.

Chronic toxicity refers to the adverse effects of long-term, repeated exposure to a pesticide, which is a significant concern for applicators who handle pesticides regularly. This can lead to health issues like cancer, neurological disorders, or reproductive problems, as noted in theGeneral Pest Management: Guide for Commercial Applicators - Category 7A(Chapter 3: Pesticide Safety). Option B (acute toxicity) refers to effects from a single, high-dose exposure, which is less relevant to repeated use. Option C (periodic) is not a recognized term in toxicology.
