LAMMA 2026 officially levelled up, and Lodi UK came armed with pixels, pests and plenty of personality. As exhibitors at this year’s show, we didn’t just turn up with leaflets and lanyards. We brought a full blown Pest Invaders takeover to the NEC, complete with a nostalgic Space Invaders arcade game that had farmers, pest pros and passers by queueing up to press play.
Held at the NEC in Birmingham, LAMMA is the UK’s biggest meet for the agricultural industry. It’s loud, it’s busy and it’s packed with innovation (and tractors). Which made it the perfect place for us to do what we do best. Talk pest control in a way that actually sticks.
Pest Invaders: Press Start to Control
Let’s be honest, pests are relentless. They invade sheds, stores and buildings like they’re on a mission. So we thought, why not lean into that and turn it into something fun?
Our Pest Invaders theme took inspiration from the classic arcade game we all know and love… Visitors stepped up, grabbed the controls and battled it out for high scores, bragging rights and a well earned break from tractor talk.
The game was a magnet. You could spot our stand from across the hall thanks to the retro graphics, flashing screen and the sound of friendly competition. It sparked conversations instantly. People stopped for the game and stayed to talk pests, which is exactly how we like it.
And of course, Razzle made sure no one escaped without a photo. Our favourite rodent mascot was busy all day, bringing the energy, photobombing selfies and proving once again that pest control does not have to be dull.
Serious Pest Talk, Just Not Seriously Boring
Behind the arcade fun was the real reason we were there. LAMMA is all about practical solutions, and pests remain a huge issue on farms across the UK. From rats and mice damaging buildings and feed stores to insects threatening grain quality, the pressure is very real.
What made LAMMA 2026 so good was the quality of conversations. Farmers were open about the challenges they’re facing, especially with changing regulations, resistance concerns and the need to stay compliant without losing control. The Pest Invaders theme made those conversations easier to start and far more relaxed.
We talked about integrated pest management, responsible use and how good control is about more than one product. Proofing, monitoring and timing all came up again and again. People took the time to ask questions, share experiences and dig into what actually works on farm.
Showcasing Solutions the Lodi Way
Our stand wasn’t just about promoting products on shelves. It was about showing how everything fits together. Visitors explored our agricultural pest control range, picked up advice specific to their farm situation and walked away with a clearer plan for tackling pest pressure head on.
Whether it was rodents around livestock buildings, insects in grain stores or long term prevention strategies, our team were on hand to break it all down in plain English. No jargon overload. No hard sell. Just honest conversations with people who know pests are part of the job and want to stay one step ahead.
Team Lodi, Powered Up
Events like LAMMA are always a team effort and 2026 was no exception. From early starts to end of day stand resets, the energy never dipped. The Pest Invaders theme gave everyone a talking point and made the stand a genuinely fun place to be.
There was plenty of laughter, a lot of competitive spirit around the arcade game and more than a few debates over who really deserved the top score. Catching up with familiar faces and meeting new ones is what makes these shows worthwhile.
Game Over for Pests, Game On for 2026
As the doors closed on LAMMA 2026 and the arcade machine powered down, one thing was clear. Pest Invaders was a hit. The stand was busy, the conversations were meaningful and the feedback was spot on. Pests = 0, Control = 100.
A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by, played the game, chatted pests or grabbed a photo with Razzle. You made LAMMA 2026 one to remember.
If you missed us at the show or want to carry on the conversation, our team are always happy to help. Until next time.
Game over for the pests. Game on for better pest control. 🎮🐀
