Late changes to the PestTech programme

At the same time IWM gives end-customers the peace of mind which comes from having a proactive, intelligent solution to wasp problems, say WaspBane. The 30 minute session starts at 12.30 in the Crow’s Nest Suite.

As its name implies, the Crow’s Nest Suite is right up on the top floor. This is the venue for all the technical sessions so do make sure you allow time to climb all the stairs.

Trust K9 has also been added to the technical programme with a presentation on bed bug detection dogs. The session will begin at 13.30 and runs for 25 minutes.

The use of beg bug detection dogs has generated a lot of interest over the past few years. The company says that its approach, which combines highly accurate bed bug detection dogs with cutting edge heat treatment, minimises the need for time-consuming and disruptive repeat visits. They offer a range of options to suit all situations and budgets.

Trust K9 say they are happy to work as an extension of your team allowing general pest control servicing companies to offer this specialist service.

These two late additions join the three previously announced presentations. T
