What are the lawn marker dimensions and mounting requirements?

• A. A six by six inch blue sign attached to a metal pole.
• B. A four by five inch white sign attached to a dowel or other supporting device of not less than twelve inches.
• C. A three by four inch orange sign on a wooden stake.
• D. A five by seven inch sign with no mounting length specified.

Answer: (B)

Lawn marker requirements focus on making the treated area clearly visible and properly secured. The best choice matches the standard: a four-by-five inch white sign attached to a dowel or other supporting device that is at least twelve inches long. The white color and 4x5 size ensure readability in turf, and the minimum twelve-inch stake helps keep the sign above mowing height and resistant to wind or being knocked over. The other options miss the mark because they use the wrong color or size, or they don’t specify the required mounting length—for example, a blue six-by-six sign on a metal pole isn’t the specified white 4x5 sign with a stake, a small orange 3x4 sign on a wooden stake is incorrect in color and size, and a larger sign without a stated mounting length fails to meet the requirement.
