PestTech gets underway in Milton Keynes

Simon KingBy Simon King6 November 2024No Comments2 Mins Read

PestTech 2024 has opened this morning, with more stands, more seminars, more CPD points available and an encouraging number of pre-registered visitors.

The 31st edition of PestTech is once again taking place at the Marshall Arena at Stadium:MK in Milton Keynes and features a number of seminars and presentations, with CPD points available.

Kevin Lawrenson, NPTA chief executive, said: “PestTech is an event for the technician, and it’s an event where people can come and learn and see things for themselves and touch things. It’s an event for the guys that work on the frontline and that’s why it attracts the numbers.

“Last year 1,200 visitiors came through the doors at PestTech, excluding exhibitors. This year we’d like to push that to nearer 1,500. PestTech is an event on the calendar that pest controllers come to, and pest controllers want to be at.”

Once again, seminars are taking place on Balcony 2; and the rifle range is on Balcony 1.
