VIDEO: A practical approach to wasp management

Practical wasp management is hazardous work, which is why pest technicians can always benefit from refreshing their knowledge and improving their competency around the control of wasp nests.

In this 1-hour webinar, BPCA's Technical Officer Natalie Bungay takes us through wasp behaviour, biology and treatment methods. 

This is followed by a discussion about products and their labels, with a packed Q & A session at the end. 

All information presented was correct at the time of publication (August 2019).
