AWARDS

The winners of the National Pest Awards, organised by Pest magazine, were announced at a ceremony in London last week.

Once again, BPCA members were heavily represented amongst the winners, taking the gongs in all but one category. 

Organised by Pest in conjunction with British Pest Control Association, the National Pest Technicians Association and Basis Prompt, the National Pest Awards are aimed at recognising and rewarding the best in the industry.

They're an opportunity for pest control companies to showcase their best and brightest talents, and the initiatives that are changing the way their businesses work.

Pest magazine editor, Simon King, said: 

"The breadth of skill, knowledge and passion on display in this year's entries was fantastic. We were delighted to host the industry in London and had a great night celebrating the winners and all those who were shortlisted. 

"We look forward to doing it all again in 2027!"
