Who is responsible for enforcing the laws that regulate the use of pesticides for structural pest control?

  1. Wisconsin Department of Public Health

  2. Environmental Protection Agency

  3. Food and Drug Administration

  4. Department of Agriculture

The correct answer is: Wisconsin Department of Public Health

The Wisconsin Department of Public Health is responsible for enforcing the state's laws and regulations related to the use of pesticides for structural pest control. This includes ensuring proper training and certification of pest control professionals, monitoring the use and application of pesticides, and investigating any complaints or violations. Option B, the Environmental Protection Agency, is responsible for regulating the use of pesticides at the federal level, but the state of Wisconsin has its own regulatory agency. Options C and D, the Food and Drug Administration and Department of Agriculture, do not have jurisdiction over structural pest control and therefore are not responsible for enforcing these laws.
