The Vertebrate Identification Flashcards are now available pre-order online, with first orders dispatching 9 June. 

These fab playing cards are a unique tool in supporting the continued development of pest professionals everywhere. A set of 54 deluxe linen cards each depicting a vertebrate image, both pests and mistaken wildlife, on one side and the common and Latin names on the reverse. 

Not only this, but we have also now released a clip variant of our flashcards.

Hang them up in your van, ready for you to grab for an extra 5 minutes of pest species revision.

The secure metal ring holds the flashcards in place and can be unscrewed so you can remove the cards whenever you want to really test your knowledge or make it a team effort. 

All of the Veritas range of learning aides, including cards, posters, puzzle books and eLearning can be found on the Veritas website
