Held bi-annually, PestWorld East is organised by the National Pest Management Association (NPMA) in partnership with Ecovar, the leading supplier of pest management solutions.

The aim is to unite pest professionals from around the world, but particularly from the Middle East, Africa, South Asia and India.

Dominique Stumpf, CEO of NPMA said: “In today’s interconnected world, pest management challenges transcend borders and demands innovative and collaborative solutions. PestWorld East will provide credible, unbiased information from legal, technical, business and customer-oriented perspectives.

“We are delighted to have drawn together a line-up of world class speakers, a bustling exhibition with exhibitors coming from across Europe, USA and the Far East, plus time within the programme for networking and socialising.”

Speakers from across the globe

The 2025 conference programme focuses on emerging technologies, sustainable practices and regional-specific solutions. Speakers include Dr Faith Oi, University of Florida, USA who will provide an update on termite management.

Dr Chow-Yang Lee, University of California Riverside, USA will present the latest research on cockroach control, whilst the public health crisis of urban rodent infestations and how to stop them will be debated by Dr Claudia Riegel from the City of New Orleans Mosquito, Termite and Rodent Control Board. 

From Europe, the ever-growing use of rodent monitoring equipment will be addressed by Hakan Kjelberg from Anticimex, Sweden whilst overcoming the challenges faced in pest management commercial accounts will be revealed by Marc Aubry from Ecolab, France. 

Exhibition time

Plenty of time has been built into the programme for delegates to visit the exhibition and to find out what’s new. Over 50 exhibitors from the Middle East, across Europe and the Far East will be present.
