Having exhibited at the show for over 15 years, this year the BASF team will showcase its award-winning cholecalciferol rodenticide, Selontra®, which offers pest control businesses a unique solution to solve their rodent problems. 

Since launching to the UK market in November 2020 as part of its Europe-wide roll out, Selontra® has been awarded the Pest Best Product award by the independent UK-based magazine, Pest.

It was hailed for controlling infestations in as few as seven days thanks to its high performance, highly palatable, and non-anticoagulant formulation.

The BASF team will be joined on the stand, by industry instructor Oliver Madge, who will be on hand to discuss any rodenticide queries or issues with attendees.  

Visitors will also be able to take a short interactive, ten-minute Selontra® training course on the stand.

Visitors to the BASF stand will also be in with a chance of winning a host of prizes by trying their hand at the Whack A Rat game, with the fastest time winning a FitBit Watch and runner-up positions taking home a host of BASF merchandise.

Helen Hall, BASF pest control specialist, said: “We’re really looking forward to returning to PestEx this year, having attended this prestigious pest exhibition for many years. 

“This year, we’re delighted to showcase Selontra® to the industry and hope visitors will join us on stands 64 and 28 for a game of Whack the Rat and to learn more about the product and training programmes available to pest controllers.”

The stand will also showcase BASF’s full range of products for pest control operators.
