Pest management professionals are kept as busy as ever providing cockroach control services. This incredibly important segment drives service calls and sales revenues for PMPs throughout North America and around the globe. According to the 2022 PCT State of the Cockroach Control report, sponsored by Syngenta, about half of pest management professionals (47 percent) say they expect an increase in their firm’s cockroach control revenue next year, and the other half (49 percent) say they are expecting this business segment to remain flat.

But whether infesting commercial kitchens or residential structures, cockroaches present PMPs with no shortage of challenges. It’s for these reasons PCT has gathered an all-star speaker lineup of educators and in-the-field experts for April’s Cockroach Control Virtual Event. This half-day virtual training event has been designed to provide attendees with the latest trends and treatment techniques for both commonly encountered and not-so-commonly encountered cockroaches.

Speakers and sessions include:

Cockroach Control In Multi-Family Housing
Speaker: Dr. Coby Schal, Blanton J. Whitmire Distinguished Professor, North Carolina State University
Lessons Learned: Cockroach Control Case Histories
Ron Harrison, entomologist and director at Rollins
