Editorial: The sustainable pest management magazine

PPC 110 | Editorial

The year’s first issue is always the most complicated to put together. 

If you flip PPC110 upside down, you’ll be reading the PPC Live showguide. The professional pest control show is back on Wednesday, 22 March 2023, at the stunning Yorkshire Event Centre in Harrogate.

Just like the magazine the show is named after, PPC Live is a truly unique event. It sprawls outside and focuses on demonstrations and interactiveness.

Like the mag, it’s designed for those on-the-ground pest professionals, out there every day, protecting clients. If you’ve never been before, please join us for the day.

Register in advance, and we’ll even throw in a free breakfast roll and a hot drink on arrival.

Also packed into this issue is the BPCA Annual Report 2022.

This is where our member volunteers reflect and report to the sector all we’ve achieved. 2022 was another demanding year for the Association, but thanks to the 70+ member volunteers, we’ve made headway on some exciting projects.

You’ve probably noticed a few changes in this issue of PPC – especially if you’re reading the print version. We’ve scrapped the plastic wrap and moved to a more sustainable paper that’s easier to recycle.

We’ve still packed in the same in-depth technical features and member interviews. However, now it won’t take 500 years for the mailing sheet to decompose!

We hope you’ve had a great start to 2023. As always, if there’s ever anything the PPC team or BPCA can help support your business with, please shout up.

See you in March at PPC Live!
