The Professional Pest Management Alliance (PPMA), which serves as the public outreach arm of the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), today released the results of its 2018 Bugs Without Borders survey to educate consumers about bed bugs during Bed Bug Awareness Week, June 3-9. With 97 percent of U.S. pest professionals reporting they have treated for bed bugs in the past year, PPMA is leading the charge for public vigilance with the launch of various media relations and social media campaigns. Industry members are encouraged to join the cause by devoting their company social media pages to bed bugs during Bed Bug Awareness Week and using the hashtag #BedBugWeek on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest. The toolkit, available for download on PPMAMainframe.org, contains a customizable press release, suggested social media content, Bed Bug Awareness Week logos, high resolution photography, media training documents and a list of video content that can be directly embedded on a company’s website.
