DILG MESSAGE ON THE 21ST NATIONAL URBAN PEST CONTROL/ ZERO WASTE, ZERO PEST WEEK

To the National Committee on Urban Pest Control [NCUPC], congratulations on your 21st National Urban Pest Control and Zero Waste. Zero Pest Week on September 25-30, 2017.


Pest control is underappreciated aspect of our daily life. It is, after all, through this industry's hard work and vigilance that our homes and food are kept free from pests that may destroy our households or carry diseases like Dengue or Zika.

However, despite their important role in keeping citizens' safe, pest control only comes into the picture when infestation problems occur.

This year's event with the theme, "Imagine Food Safety, Public Health & Property Protection Without Pest Control," will hopefully provide increased awareness and vital information on how to prevent the spread of harmful pests in our surroundings and instill to us more proactive prospective regarding pest control.

It is my hope that the NCUPC remains a reliable and constant partner in promoting eco-friendly pest control method to Filipinos. Together, we can achieve a food secure, healthy and empowered citizenry.

May you have a meaningful celebration.
CATALINO S. CUY
Officer-In-Charge
