New Waste Guidance Launched

The BPCA Code of Best Practice on Pesticide Waste has been updated and is available for free via the BPCA website.

The document has been reviewed by the Environment Agencies of the four home countries and pulled together by BPCA Technical Manager Dee Ward-Thompson. While the majority of the content is similar to the 2014 version, there are some important changes. We recommend every pest controller reminds themselves of their obligations by reading this document.
