Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

(225 ILCS 10/5.6)

Sec. 5.6. Pesticide and lawn care product application at day care centers.

(a) Licensed day care centers shall abide by the requirements of Sections
10.2
and
10.3 of the Structural Pest Control Act.

(b) Notification required pursuant to Section 10.3 of the Structural Pest
Control
Act may not be given more than 30 days before the application of the pesticide.

(c) Each licensed day care center, subject to the requirements of Section
10.3 of the Structural Pest Control Act, must ensure that pesticides will
not
be
applied when children are present at the center. Toys and other items mouthed
or
handled by the children must be removed from the area before pesticides are
applied.
Children must not return to the treated area within 2 hours after a pesticide
application or
as specified on the pesticide label, whichever time is greater.

(d) The owners and operators of licensed day care centers must ensure that lawn care products will not be applied to day care center grounds when children are present at the center or on its grounds. For the purpose of this Section, "lawn care product" has the same meaning as that term is defined in the Lawn Care Products Application and Notice Act.
