Nisus a Sponsor of Pest Summit

The third biannual Pest Summit convention was held this August in Bangkok, Thailand (Khun Suchart Leelayouthyotin, Chairman). Pest Summit is an international three-day conference that gathers together pest management professionals from Southeast Asia and other parts of the world, including pest control operators, industry experts, suppliers and technology experts. This year’s event was organized by the Thailand Pest Management Association along with the Indonesian Pest Control Association of the Philippines and the Singapore Pest Management Association. The theme for Pest Summit Thailand 2008 was “Global Warming and Its Impact on Pest Management”.

Dr. Jeff Lloyd, vice president of research and development at U.S.-based Nisus Corporation, attended the conference and shared his expertise on the use of borates in green pest control. While in Bangkok, Lloyd gave presentations both at Pest Summit and at Kasetsart University, the first agricultural university in Thailand and one of their oldest universities.

Nisus was among the sponsors exhibiting at the conference. The Nisus booth was created and run by Khun Numchai Loyrithiwudthikrai, manager of Chieng Thai Trading L.P. The exhibit emphasized the Nisus line of green pest control products. Khun Numchai L. is responsible for the Bora-Care treatment of the famed “Giant Swing”, a huge welcoming arch in front of Wat Suthat, one of the oldest and largest temples in Bangkok.

Pest Summit 2010 will be held in Indonesia.
