Every two years, the Vertebrate Pest Council hosts a series of seminars providing updates and information on managing vertebrate pests. It is time for our next cycle! This year the seminars will be virtual. They will be hosting three 2-hour sessions spread across three days. Each day will have a different theme:
Day 1 (March 30): Field rodents
Day 2 (March 31): Updates and information on the use of rodenticides
Day 3 (April 1): Managing commensal rodents
These are unique seminars in that there generally is not any other place where you can get continuing education credits exclusively for vertebrate species. They have experts from around the state lined up to provide these seminars. The link for the website with all the details can be found here: http://www.vpconference.org/. A flyer can be found here as well: https://ucanr.edu/sites/VPC/files/345087.pdf.
