We provide bags, the proper form to fill out, and a mailing label. The lab that we use is located in Fort Wayne, IN. Send in your sample with a money order or check and when the results are in, we will discuss them with you!

Bring a sample of the insect or plant that you want to identify to our office, or send a picture of them via email. Samples may be sent in to Purdue's Plant and Pest Diagnostic Laboratory (PPDL) for further study or identification for a fee.

St. Joseph County Extension offers opportunities to achieve a private or commercial pesticide or fertilizer applicator license through the Indiana State Chemist Office.
