Fairfax, VA -- April 1, 2025 -- The National Pest Management Association (NPMA) proudly launches April as National Pest Management Month, honoring the essential role of pest management professionals in safeguarding public health, food, and property. This annual observance, organized by the Professional Pest Management Alliance (PPMA), recognizes the dedication and expertise of everyone in the industry, from service professionals to customer service representatives, sales personnel, and managers.

Under the theme "Innovation in Action: Advancing Pest Management for a Healthier Tomorrow," NPMA has created a special webpage for the industry to celebrate the vital contributions of pest management professionals in protecting communities nationwide. The dedicated online resource offers tools for professionals to thank team members, colleagues, and coworkers for their commitment to excellence.

This recognition program is proudly sponsored by Syngenta, whose support underscores the industry's commitment to collaborative efforts in addressing pest-related challenges and promoting sustainable solutions.

"We are grateful to Syngenta for their continued partnership in developing and enhancing this important industry recognition program," said Dominique Stumpf, CEO of NPMA. "As we celebrate another year of National Pest Management Month, we remind the public that pest management is fundamental to protecting public health, preserving food supplies, and safeguarding properties from damage."

Throughout April, NPMA encourages professionals in the pest management industry to utilize the website resources, which include e-cards for colleagues and staff, as well as sample graphics and copy for social media platforms. These resources serve to reinforce the critical role of pest management and highlight the industry's dedication to ensuring healthier, safer communities.

Pest management professionals across the country are invited to join the celebration by using the hashtag #NPMM on social media and sharing their stories about how they contribute to public health protection.

The National Pest Management Month resources are available at www.npmapestworld.org/npmm starting today.
