Fera Science - PUS Amenity Survey
Received: 13 May 2025
We would be extremely grateful for your help regarding the weed control used between January and December 2024. This is a Government survey, funded and managed by both Defra (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) and CRD (Chemicals Regulation Division).The current survey covers the usage of pesticides (primarily weed, pest and disease control but excluding pest control such as rat, mouse, bedbug and cockroach control) used in amenity situations during 2024. The survey is fully supported by the Amenity Forum, BIGGA, and the UKLCA as a means of obtaining vital and much needed information. Your participation can help inform the process by which the risks associated with the use of pesticides are assessed and demonstrate the professionalism of users in the sector. The industry has made many significant changes over the past few years, particularly regarding training, awareness and sprayer testing - it is intended that this survey will capture these changes.If you could follow the link below and complete the survey, I would be extremely grateful:https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2MRT7T2If you are not the best person to contact, I would be extremely grateful if you could forward this email, either to someone else in your organisation or alternatively, please let me know the best person to contact where sub-contractors are responsible for weed control.You and Your DataAll information supplied will be treated in complete confidence and individual participants will not be identified.
