Get ready, Bryan-College Station! A buzz is in the air as the 79th Urban Pest Management Conference and Workshop is just around the corner, scheduled for January 8-10, 2025. This year’s event promises to be a fantastic opportunity for anyone interested in pest management to get the lowdown on the latest trends and techniques. Hosted by the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, this is an event you don’t want to miss.

What’s on the Agenda?

The conference will take place at the Brazos Center, located at 3232 Briarcrest Drive in Bryan. The main conference sessions will kick off bright and early, starting at 7:45 a.m. on January 8, and continuing the next day from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. There’s a whole lot to learn, with a focus on everything from pest insect biology to novel pest management approaches and pesticide safety.

Attendees will dive into courses covering a variety of pests including pesky bed bugs, relentless termites, annoying mosquitoes, sneaky rodents, and invasive weeds. Sounds fun, right? Along with all that knowledge, participants will have the chance to earn more than 30 Texas Department of Agriculture-approved Continuing Education Units (CEUs) throughout the three-day event. It’s like leveling up in your pest control career!

Costs and Registration Details

Feeling interested? Registration is currently open for just $275 per person if you sign up before January 7. But hey, don’t sleep on this opportunity; if you wait until the conference days, the price goes up to $300. It’s a small investment for a wealth of knowledge and networking opportunities!

Special Training Programs

If you’re looking for something more specialized, mark your calendars for January 9. An eight-hour technician training course is scheduled from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Rollins Urban and Structural Entomology Facility in College Station. This course aims to prepare noncommercial applicators for the Texas Structural Pest Control Services general exam. You’ll explore everything from pesticides and application methods to safety measures and integrated pest management.

Focused Workshops Galore

But wait, there’s more! On January 10, three focused workshops will take place from 8 a.m. to noon at different venues—so whether you’re into rodents, structural fumigation or commercial kitchen insect management, there’s a workshop with your name on it. Here’s the lineup:

  • Rodent Workshop with Janet Hurley at the Rollins Urban and Structural Entomology Facility
  • Structural Fumigation Workshop led by Gregory Aguirre at the Scotts Miracle-Gro Facility
  • Commercial Kitchen Insect Management Workshop by Mike Donewar and Tony Holm at Covenant Presbyterian Church
