VIDEO: Happy World Pest Day 2021 #TechnicianTakeover

Once a year, (6 June) the whole pest management sector across the world seeks to increase public, government, and media awareness of the important role we all play in protecting public health.

Our #TechnicianTakeover project celebrates the lifeblood of the pest management sector - technicians.

Between 1-5 June, five technicians took over BPCA’s social media channels to show the world the essential role they play in protecting public health.

Please consider sharing it with your friends and colleagues to spread the word.

You can catch up with all the fun of the past week on our social media:

Above all, have a fantastic World Pest Day.

From BPCA, we’d like to say thank you to all the pest technicians, support staff and companies that make our sector so great and keep people safe, even when times are tough.
