Registration open! Discover the latest pest control science, technology and innovation at the UK’s online trade show and conference for pest management.
PestEx 2021 has moved to 2022. Instead of being upset about it, BPCA has decided to launch an all-new digital event to connect us all safely during the pandemic.

WHAT IS PESTEXTRA?
It’s the familiar PestEx vibe in a digital environment. PestExtra is a three-day conference and tradeshow that brings together thought-leaders and public health pest experts from far and wide. Access everything from the comfort of your home or office.
Seminars, product demonstrations, scavenger hunts, CPD trails, competitions and a virtual trade hall will keep business owners, technicians and specialists engaged.
WHEN IS PESTEXTRA?
Tuesday 16 March 2021, 8.30am-12.30pm
Wednesday 17 March 2021, 2pm-8pm
Thursday 18 March 2021, 10am-3pm
PestExtra runs across three shorter days, rather than the usual two full days. We’ve done it this way to help you fit it in around your schedules, to allow access for international visitors and to prevent you from having to sit in front of a screen for too long!
WHY LAUNCH AN ONLINE PEST SHOW?
PestExtra is all about getting the pest management sector together - even in difficult times. We want to connect pest professionals from around the world and celebrate the incredible work we do to protect public health.
You’ll be able to interact and network with the latest pest control technology and services from the world’s leading suppliers.
It’s an opportunity to learn, network and share in a completely digital environment over three action-packed days.
WHERE IS PESTEXTRA?
Access the digital pest management show from anywhere. Connect with a smartphone, tablet or computer. All you need is an up-to-date web browser. If your device has an internal or external camera and microphone, you’ll be able to chat directly with exhibitors.
HOW CAN YOU GET INVOLVED IN PESTEXTRA?
PestExtra will be free to attend for BPCA member companies and UK-based pest management companies (up to five tickets for non-members).
Those wishing to attend from outside of the UK will be able to do so for a nominal price (far cheaper than flights and hotels to London!).
