The new site has been unveiled by the Executive Committee of ICUP and acts as a focal point for the nine previous conferences, along with a link to the forthcoming 10th ICUP in Barcelona to be held on the rearranged dates of 13-15 September 2021.

As well as information about the upcoming conference, all papers and posters published in the ICUP Proceedings from past conferences can be accessed on the site. All these documents are key word searchable and can be downloaded, in full, free-of-charge.

Virtually 30 years of international urban pest science are chronicled – ranging from the advent of insecticide gel baits, the bed bug resurgence, the rise of rodenticide resistance, termite baiting techniques, invasive species, along with the development of natural products and biological agents.

Amounting to over 1,000 papers and posters, this searchable facility is an outstanding reference resource for all those working in the pest management sector.
