From operators, sole traders, commercial entities, as well as trade associations and product M&D through to end-users, IPM Central looks to support professional service delivery. As pests adapt and evolve in a changing world, so must the mindset and skill-set of modern pest management operators (PMOs). Through understanding public and political shifts in attitudes towards pest management and ensuring that those who operate within have the tools to remain safe, legal and competent. Further understand the decision-making processes, based on Pest Risk Management (#PestRiskManagement) between pest control and pest management, the impact on service specifications and the ability to provide long-terms solutions over short term fixes.

What is a CIC?

Supporting Professionals

IPM Central is a not for profit organisation that aims to benefit the and improve the life’s of those people it supports, namely pest management professionals (PMPs) who deliver pest management services, and those who purchase the services of PMPs (end-users).

As part of a CIC, all profits are reinvested into the company and the people it supports, rather than maximising profits for owners and shareholders.

Links between the people we support and the wider community are essential for all parties to understand the risks associated with public health pests and how professional service providers are looking to stay ahead of the world of pest evolution.

CICs generally tackle a wide range of social and environmental issues and IPM Central operates in all parts of the economy.
