Joseph Latino, president of Allergy Technologies, led a panel discussion for affordable housing leaders at the National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials (NAHRO) National Conference and Exhibition in San Diego on Sept 22.
Titled “Bed Bug Prevention and Control in Affordable Housing,” the panel included pest management professionals, the president of a Philadelphia affordable housing resident association, a property manager, and member of Philadelphia’s City Council.
The discussion focused on the launch of ATACH, a collaborative, proactive, and facility-wide approach to bed bug prevention and control in affordable housing that has reduced bedbug incidents to near zero levels in a 480-unit housing complex over a 30-month period.
“This turnkey strategy for the prevention and control of bed bugs in affordable housing was extremely well received, particularly because it not only saves time and money for those in affordable housing communities, ATAHC also improves ‘Quality of Life’ for residents and staff in the industry,” Latino said.
