MINOR
The bill was updated to include a second sponsor and expanded its scope by adding a new requirement that purchasers must have a valid permit or certification to buy restricted rodenticides. Additionally, the exceptions for agricultural use were broadened to allow certified applicators to apply these chemicals remotely under supervision, rather than requiring them to be physically present on-site.

The bill now applies to certified pesticide applicators and technicians who can apply restricted chemicals remotely for agricultural purposes, and it introduces a permit requirement for general purchases.
