World Pest Day

Every June 6th marks World Pest Awareness Day, a date dedicated to highlighting the fundamental role that proper pest management plays in protecting public health, food safety, the environment, and people’s quality of life.

Pests, such as insects, rodents, and other harmful organisms, can transmit diseases, contaminate food, cause structural damage, and affect agricultural production. Therefore, professional and responsible control of these species is essential to prevent health and economic risks.

This anniversary also promotes the adoption of sustainable and safe integrated pest management practices, prioritizing prevention, monitoring, and the rational use of control methods that minimize environmental impact.
