  • Online Course: Back to the Basics: PMPs as Protectors of Public Health

Back to the Basics: PMPs as Protectors of Public Health

Professional pest management is one of three key factors attributed to providing the quality of life enjoyed in the United States. That’s because pest management professionals control dangerous pests such as rodents, cockroaches and flies that contaminate our food, spread disease, and damage our structures. In this session, learn how PMPs use their extensive knowledge of a pest’s biology and behavior to guide their management practices, and how their day-to-day services help to minimize health risks posed by many structure infesting pests.

This course can be used to prepare for the NPMA PRO Certified exam and counts for one (1) technical credit OR one (1) industry professionalism credit towards NPMA PRO recertification.
