At present, although the international governance of COVID-19 has achieved positive results in phases, COVID-19 is still raging in some countries. The number of confirmed cases and asymptomatic patients is increasing day by day. The daily soaring number of confirmed cases affects countless people heart.

At the same time, pest control (PCO), as an important part of the service industry, played an indispensable role during the epidemic, and received the attention of various national industry associations. Related organizations and people have called for The COVID-19 situation is severe, and pest management still cannot stop. As COVID-19 continues to worsen, the public will raise their awareness of public environmental sanitation governance to a new level, and will pay more attention to public health and pest management. The European Pest Control Association stated in an open letter: The pest control department can play a key role in the following aspects:

• Protect the food supply. Pest management is the key to ensuring that pests do not affect the food retail, food production and pharmaceutical supply chain.

• Ensure the safety of medical staff so that they can continue to treat others.

• By reducing contact with pathogen-carrying pests, PCO can help protect the most vulnerable people and protect those around them from the virus as much as possible.

• Without PCO services, the number of pests will skyrocket. However, disinfection alone does not provide a deep cleaning effect, which will pose a major threat to public health.

A certain environmental science department said: Pests are not afraid of the new coronavirus! At present, public attention is focused on fighting COVID-19, but controlling the infection of pests carrying pathogens is still a top priority. Even if many public places are closed, pests are still active, and their numbers will increase exponentially in an undisturbed environment. This makes it urgent to suspend pest control work. Therefore, in such a difficult time, we should understand: Pest control is an indispensable work that needs to be continued!
