PPC117 puts a spotlight on regulation. We have articles on the new CRRU code changes, using cholecalciferol safely, and how to successfully apply for gull licences in 2025.

We also have a feature on deer management from Dave Archer, plus a useful piece on how the BPCA EDI toolkit can help your business. 

And we meet Rhino Pest Management's Ben Hunt, who talks about the pros and cons of running your own pest control business. 

And don't forget to check out the events and training calendars!
