ProActive Prevention Bed Bug Symposium Announced

AMBLER, Pa. — Allergy Technologies, makers of ActiveGuard Mattress Liners announced sponsorship of a “Proactive Prevention Bed Bug Symposium” series being conducted at three (3) Florida locations: June 6th at the Fort Lauderdale Broward County Convention Center; June 7th at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress in Orlando; and, June 8th at The Florida Aquarium in Tampa. The Symposia’s goal is to increase the awareness, education and cost-effective viability of bed bug preventive programs targeting commercial sales and pest professionals who provide service programs. Ultimately the benefit of prevention is to protect their clients, beds, guests/residents, and reputation from the ever-increasing challenge of bed bugs.

Dr. Phil Koehler, Endowed Professor, Urban Entomology at the University of Florida, Gainesville, will discuss the latest research findings on bed bugs. Highlights of Dr. Koehler’s presentation will include information on the recently uncovered tropical strain and most effective control strategies. CEU credits are available for pest management. Joseph Latino, President of Allergy Technologies will discuss unique approaches for establishing bed bug prevention in commercial accounts; address how to ‘finally’ stop bed bug re-infestations and re-emergence once and for all; and uncover the financial benefits of bed bug prevention to both client and provider.

These Symposia are for everyone in the pest management industry that offers service programs to commercial accounts such as: hotels/motels, colleges/universities, nursing homes, multi-occupant dwellings. “We are extremely excited to sponsor this Symposia series tailored toward learning and understanding how to offer proactive bed bug prevention programs to commercial clients,” said Joseph Latino, President of Allergy Technologies. “Bed bug prevention until now has been a huge unaddressed opportunity for our industry. Simple but elegant strategies, including products labeled for prevention, are now available that can significantly reduce the degree of bed bug infestations in otherwise highly challenged accounts.”
