PestTech is considered to be UK’s premier pest control exhibition, and also the largest pest control event in Europe, that takes place in a single day. Through this event, exhibitors covering every aspect of the pest control industry come together and connect with each other. Created under the umbrella of the NPTA, PestTech has become over the last years an event where all sectors within the Public Health and Pest Control Industry are present.
The member companies of NPTA can offer advice and alleviate problems ranging from a small insect to big animals that cause your crops damage, such as deer.
This year the exhibition presented pest control companies and their latest methods of control, whether they are biological methods, mechanical ones, exclusion ones, or alternative methods, but also several seminaries on new emerging pests and invasive species, and ways in which a pest control company can improve the productivity of its business.
