Calling all bed buggers!

Get involved | PPC92 September 2018

First came the birds, and then came the bees - now it’s time to take everyone’s favourite night-time creepy crawly into the limelight.

Calling all bed buggers

BPCA is looking for people who are passionate about protecting the British public from bed bugs. Bed bug control is a specialist area of pest management and therefore requires knowledgeable experts to commit to getting together to share best practice and guidance for the whole sector.

A BPCA special interest group gets together to discuss a single specialist issue. The guidance they put together gets fed-back to the BPCA Servicing Committee, and then gets turned into guidance documents, PPC articles and best practice.

If you’d like to get between the sheets and make a real difference to the future of bed bug control register your interest today. Contact hello@bpca.org.uk
