Workshop Location: DoubleTree by Hilton Norfolk Airport, 1500 N. Military Highway, Norfolk, VA 23502

Cost: VPMA Member $209 - Non-member $330
Recertification credits have been applied for in 7a and 60 in Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, Washington DC, and West Virginia. Workshop Summary: The homes and structures that PMPs (Pest Management Professionals) work to protect are often attacked by structurally-damaging insects. But sometimes, Occasional Invaders crawl, slink, or fly their way into a structure simply looking for harborage, food, or they may have just wandered in. While they may not cause structural damage, they can certainly alarm the human residents of a structure. As a technician, having a firm understanding of the wide variety of creatures that fall into this category can equip you to better assure your customers that you can provide a solution to eradicate these invaders.
