Hi John,

Everyone in our community deserves a safe and healthy home, and that includes a pest-free environment. Whether it’s cockroaches or bedbugs, no one should have to deal with recurring infestations and the health hazards they bring.

Luckily, Regional Asthma Management & Prevention (RAMP) has developed a prevention-focused approach to pest management that helps affordable housing developers and on-site staff get ahead of the issue before it gets out of control.

RAMP’s Brandon Kitagawa will join expert Andrew Sutherland on Wednesday, October 26 from 12:00PM - 1:30PM PT to provide a look into strategies for keeping people in our affordable housing units and keeping the bugs out. Their session, Preventing Pest Infestations: Lessons Learned Using Integrated Pest Management In Affordable Housing, will offer an overview of their model, as well as the essential tactics, challenges, and analysis you should be aware of in implementing a strong pest-prevention plan.

 

Deadline: Monday, October 24 at 5:00PM PT
