Level 2 Award in Pest Management

Demonstrate your professionalism in pest control by taking our Level 2 qualification.

​

Overview in brief

Our qualification will assess your knowledge and understanding of pest control for four different pest species- rodents, insects, birds and wildlife. It covers everything from their biology and behaviour, to surveying and treating infestations. Upon successful completion of this qualification, you’ll gain a Lantra qualification certificate and a Skills ID card.

The finer details

​
It consists of four mandatory units covering the:
  • Control of rodent pest species
  • Control of wildlife pest species
  • Control of bird pest species
  • Control of insect pest species.
 
Our qualification is assessed through a combination of an assessment paper and professional discussion.
You'll need to know about the latest legislation and integrated pest management (IPM). You should understand the biology and behaviour for each pest type.  
And of course, you should know how to survey an infestation and how best to eradicate it and guard against future infestations.
​To ensure that other species aren't harmed, you should take a control risk hierarchy approach.
Worth noting: Lantra has several pest control training courses which support this qualification.
