Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) - Pest Control Product Registrant Inspections Database

Canada regularly inspects registrants that sell or distribute pest control products. These registrants are usually companies that own the pesticide registrations. Every year, PMRA inspect about 10% of companies. Inspections usually take 4 to 8 weeks; an additional 4 weeks may be needed if samples have been sent to the federal laboratory for testing. A list of all inspections on pesticide registrants conducted by Health Canada since April 1, 2016 will be included within the database. Information published will include registrant information (i.e. name, address), date of the inspection, inspection rating, inspection observations, and whether corrective actions are requested by Health Canada.

Definitions Compliant rating: A compliant rating indicates that the company meets the regulations.
A compliant rating that contains observations could indicate: - there were technical deficiencies - the risk to health or the environment is low For a compliant rating with observations, corrective actions are often required.

Non-compliant rating: A non-compliant rating contains observations that could indicate: - there were deficiencies - the risk to health or the environment is moderate or significant Immediate corrective action is required within a definite time frame. (Current to August 13th , 2020.)
