What Our Members Say
Many times we get caught thinking that GPCA is just about recertification hours. Without GPCA however, I would not know about the advances in technology or have a voice at the State Capitol, and most of all I would not have friends in our industry. I accepted an invitation to get involved. Saying yes was the best decision I have ever made.

Rex's Pest Control
Having worked in most states I quickly became aware of the worth, to all size companies, a strong state association was for our industry. GPCA as a very strong association has made our voice heard with: Legislators, Regulators and the public, all this translating to a better business climate for our industry.
