VIDEO: PestEx 2019 - the pest management show

Did you make it into our short PestEx 2019 video? Take a look at some of the highlights from the UK pest management show.

PestEx is a great opportunity for everyone in the industry to come and meet each other and see what the latest innovations are. From the manufactures that are here to all of the servicing companies that come and meet each and can all see the greatest and latest products that are on the market.

Phil Halpin, BPCA President

Ian Andrew, BPCA Chief Exec, said: 

"It’s exciting to see the sector coming together.

"Pest controllers, manufacturers, distributors, just a great opportunity for people to meet one another, hear what’s new in the sector, to see what new innovations are available for the sector.

"It’s also a great learning opportunity. If anyone who comes here and leaves without learning something new, I’d be disappointed

"PestEx is your chance to come and see what’s happening in the sector. Your chance to meet people, and hear their stories. It’s an exciting opportunity for everyone".

I’ve just seen how there are new detectors coming up on the market where you can actually track the movement of a mouse or a cockroach. This is very useful to me to see how it actually works.

Dessie Dimitrova, PestEx 2019 Visitor

PestEx for me and my company helps with our knowledge and experience. It’s a great networking opportunity and we learn about new products on the market.

Terry Cooper, PestEx 2019 visitor

I think PestEx is a great platform and it’s being organised by what I think is the leading industry association in the world – which is BPCA.
