The document was created with the support of Orkin UK and is now available to download in the member library

BPCA Head of Technical and Membership, Dee Ward-Thompson, said:

"While we're still working on influencing the licensing scheme, the upcoming election will complicate speaking with ministers. 

"We've put together the following guidance to support members with having conversations with their clients.

"We encourage members and their clients to continue to contact us with their concerns regarding glue boards so we can continue to lobby the government on your behalf."
