Private Pesticide Applicator
Certified Applicator
Commercial For Hire Pesticide Applicator
Unlicensed Applicator

The correct answer is: Commercial For Hire Pesticide Applicator

The role described pertains specifically to an individual who applies pesticides for compensation on properties they do not own, rent, or lease. This function is clearly defined under regulatory frameworks that differentiate between various types of pesticide applicators. A commercial for-hire pesticide applicator is engaged in the business of applying pesticides on the properties of others, which includes residential, commercial, and agricultural sites. They must comply with specific licensing and certification requirements, ensuring they have the knowledge and skills to handle pesticides safely and effectively. Contrast this with the other categories: a private pesticide applicator typically applies pesticides to their own property or for agricultural production on their own land. A certified applicator is a broader category that could include various licensed individuals skilled in applying pesticides, but doesn’t specifically imply the business or compensation aspect without the context of “for hire.” Unlicensed applicators would not possess the necessary legal authority to apply pesticides on others' property.
