PPC Live 2025 has opened at Yorkshire Event Centre in Harrogate this morning, with more than 1,000 delegates pre-registering to attend.
Organised by the British Pest Control Association (BPCA), PPC Live in Harrogate is designed for UK pest technicians, managers and company owners, including local authority pest control staff.
The exhibition and conference will be a chance to get hands-on with the latest and greatest pest management innovations, and to pick up some new skills along the way. This year’s event consists of practical indoor and outdoor product demos and seminars.
Covering topics including behavioural resistance in rodents, the biology of bed bugs and life after Bendiocarb, presentations will be taking place in a silent technical seminar theatre. With seating for 100 people, delegates will be able to listen to seminars via headphones – as they do at PestEx – so you won’t miss a single word.
Lauren Day, BPCA event manager, said: “We had feedback last time that visitors really liked the hands-on demonstrations at PPC Live, because that makes it different from everything else, so we’ve got an extra indoor demonstration area this time – there are some really good things for people to get stuck in to.
“There are more hands-on things to do. We’ve also got a roundtable discussion area that are being led by some of the committees to get people’s views and get them involved in big subjects.”
