Today (and tomorrow) I’m in St. Louis to attend the first-ever NPMA Nuisance Bird and Wildlife Management Conference & Marketplace. So far, I’m impressed. More than 200 wildlife management professionals (WMPs) from around the country are here.
Today’s sessions included a history of nuisance wildlife management, given by Critter Control’s Kevin Clark; rules WMPs should know about, given by Joe Felegi from Critter Control and Gene Harrington from the NPMA; and a roundatble discussion with Stuart Aust from Bug Doctor/Bird Doctor/Animal Doctor, Scott Steckel from Varment Guard, Brad Whitten from Arrow Exterminators and Felegi.
In addition, there was an interesting session on public relations, given by Jess Phelan from PPMA, as well as a great session on mole control from Jeff “Mole Man” Holper.
Looking forward to tomorrow’s sessions and, as always, taking some video for PMPtv. Stay tuned.
