ATLANTA, GA – August 4, 2016 — The National Pest Management Association is pleased to announce that Chuck Tindol, Vice President of Active Pest Control, will serve as the President of the National Pest Management Association (NPMA). Mr. Tindol has become the third generation in his family to serve as President of the NPMA. He, and the entire Active Pest Control family, is known throughout the industry for honesty, hard work, and leadership.

“I couldn’t be more pleased to have the opportunity to work with Chuck in this leadership position. His integrity and passion for the industry underscores the professionalism we look to provide to consumers,” said Dominique Stumpf, Chief Executive Officer of the NPMA. Stumpf went on to say, “I have no doubt that under Chuck’s leadership we will be able to continue to grow and evolve to serve the consumer in our role as protectors of public health and property.”

Prior to the July 1, 2016 election his grandfather, Red Tindol, was NPMA President for 1976-1977; his father, Rufus “Bubba” Tindol, held the same title for 1988-89. Reflecting on this legacy Mr. Tindol states, “Because of the example that my grandfather and father set for me, I have always felt a desire and willing obligation to follow in their footsteps.”

He continues, “I am thankful to all the partners at Active Pest Control for what they do every day. It allows me the honor of representing them in our national trade association. I am also honored that my peers have given me this opportunity and will work hard to earn that trust.”

Mr. Tindol is eager to join the newly appointed CEO and Board. Under his leadership, the NPMA will continue to work hard on its mission to protect public health and property and to be a proactive resource for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and our national legislators, as well as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in the ongoing management of vector borne diseases including Zika Virus, West Nile, Lyme disease and Dengue fever.
