Florida General Household Pest (GHP) CEUs, online
Two FDACS-approved CEU hours in the General Household Pest category, self-paced on any device. $25, with your FDACS-13325 attendance form filled in and emailed the moment you pass.
What a GHP certified operator needs each year
Under Fla. Stat. §482.111(10), a certified operator renews every year with 2 hours of Core plus 2 hours in each category on the certificate. If General Household Pest is your only category, that is 4 hours: this 2-hour GHP course plus the 2-hour Core course. Your renewal is due on the anniversary of your certificate's issue date (ch. 2024-137, effective July 1, 2024).
The courses that cover it
Cockroach Mastery: Florida Species, Biology, Inspection & Treatment
A deep-dive 2-hour CEU course on cockroach control for Florida certified operators — biology, lifecycle, all seven Florida species, professional inspection, IPM strategy, and the modern bait-and-IGR product toolbox.
Florida Chapter 482 for Operators: Statute, PPE, and Label Safety
A 2-hour Core CEU course for Florida certified pest control operators — Chapter 482 statutory framework, Rule 5E-14 records and audits, the EPA pesticide label as the law, PPE selection by formulation, respiratory protection, spill response, and exposure-incident reporting.
Who this course is for
Florida certified operators (JF) who hold the General Household Pest category and need their annual category hours. If you hold more than one category, you need 2 hours in each, so pair this course with the matching course for every other category on your certificate.
ID cardholders (technicians) follow a different requirement under §482.091(10). See the technician training page for what they need.
What the GHP course covers
Cockroach Mastery goes deep on one pest group instead of skimming many. It covers cockroach biology and lifecycle, identification and habits of the cockroach species found in Florida, professional inspection and sanitation, building an IPM program, and the bait, IGR, and insecticide options with resistance management.
