About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the weed-control bond actually covers

Mississippi regulates commercial pesticide and weed-control applicators through the Department of Agriculture and Commerce's Bureau of Plant Industry. A company that performs weed control for hire must hold a license, and the license is conditioned on a surety bond that backs the professional service contracts you sign.

Under the Bureau's Regulation of Professional Services, the bond amount tracks the work you do: commercial weed-control work is commonly a $2,500 bond, while a company licensed for insect, rodent, plant-disease, and weed work together is generally bonded at $5,000. Confirm the amount for your categories on your application.

The bond protects whoever is harmed if a company fails to perform a service contract or violates the applicable law and rules — and if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We issue the amount your category requires; pricing is variable, from $100, and the application collects no credit information.

MDAC Regulation of Professional ServicesThe Mississippi Department of Agriculture and Commerce Bureau of Plant Industry conditions a commercial weed-control license on a surety bond under its Regulation of Professional Services (Miss. Admin. Code Title 2). The amount is commonly $2,500 for weed-control work (AGW/AQW/ROW/HCW categories) and $5,000 for combined insect, rodent, plant-disease, and weed work. Confirm the exact amount for your categories on your application.
