Following changes to the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) code of practice, training is no longer acceptable evidence of competence for the purchase of professional rodenticide.

 

Rodents pose a significant risk to farms, food businesses, and commercial premises by spreading disease, contaminating feed and stock, and causing structural damage. While rodenticides are an effective method of control, their misuse can endanger people, livestock, wildlife, and the environment. This training ensures that you and your team are equipped with the correct understanding of legislation, best practice application, and safe storage and disposal methods.

​

Led by our experienced instructors, the course blends theory with practical knowledge, ensuring content is tailored to the real-world challenges you face. By the end of the training, participants will understand how to:

​

• Assess rodent infestations and choose the most appropriate control measures.

• Apply rodenticides correctly and safely, in line with legal and environmental responsibilities.

• Reduce the risks of accidental poisoning to non-target species, pets, and people.

• Store and transport rodenticides securely.

• Implement an integrated pest management approach to achieve long-term control.
