VIDEO: Proud to protect - World Pest Day 2020

BPCA has released a video in celebration of World Pest Day 2020.

The short video entitled “Proud to protect” features several BPCA members and people from the BPCA Staff team speaking about what they do to help protect public health through adequate pest management.

WORLD PEST DAY

World pest day aims to:

  • Increase public, government, and media awareness of the important role pest management organizations play in protecting public health
  • Project the professional image of the pest management industry
  • Promote the use of professional pest management in a scientific and socially responsible way
  • Call attention to the big threats caused by small pests.

World Pest Day was initiated in 2017 by the Chinese Pest Control Association and is co-sponsored by the Federation of Asian and Oceania Pest Managers' Association (FAOPMA), the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), and the Confederation of European Pest Management Associations (CEPA).
