Detected July 11, 2026 · in Pesticide & Pest-Control Applicators

The U.S. Supreme Court has affirmed that EPA has exclusive authority over pesticide labels, preventing states from adding their own labeling requirements. This decision reinforces federal preemption under FIFRA, reducing regulatory fragmentation for pest control firms.
