Actions vs impacts – a pest controller’s quandary

PPC Live Seminar: Every professional pest controller is aware that if they’re not responsible, their treatments can have an impact on our wildlife.

Every professional pest controller is aware that if they’re not responsible, their treatments can have an impact on our wildlife. The problem is many pest technicians lack the adequate training or skills to assess the wildlife that may already be present.

For many reasons, the diversity of wildlife within our urban areas is continually growing. As pest controllers, you’re looking to prevent pests - not wildlife. If your actions have an adverse impact on wildlife you’ll get incredible publicity, but for all the wrong reasons!

The Urban Wildlife team will be using their years of experience to give you practical survey techniques, and observations that you can include in your initial surveys. These tips might be the difference between you efficiently treating a wasp nest or killing a bat and receiving a fine of up to £5,000 or even a prison sentence.

Can you afford to take that risk?

1 CPD point for this seminar + 2 points for attending PPC Live.
