A BPCA Code is a set of written rules which explains how people working in our industry should behave in a particular situation. Members must abide by Codes of Best Practice in their day-to-day work.

BPCA Technical Compliance Manager, Natalie Bungay, said: 

“Drainage inspections, fogging and ULV treatments are all specialist technical activities. 

"Members have been requesting best practice codes for these subjects, so we worked closely with a group of member volunteers to produce documents which will help them stay on the right side of the law, be the best professionals we can be and keep customers safe."
