How to become a member of PestNet
If you wish to become a member of PestNet, for free, you can do so either by:
opening the ‘Join’ link on the PestNet online app
downloading and opening the mobile app.
Below are details on how to join PestNet using the online app and then the mobile app.
You can view messages to PestNet without joining, and you can search for past submissions. But if you want to post a message or respond to one, we ask you to join. This is to prevent the list of submissions being overwhelmed by malicious software applications, so-called ‘bots’.
Joining via our online mobile app
Joining via the online app
Once you have opened the online PestNet app, click on ‘Join’ on the top tool bar. This will open a registration window that enables you to open a new account. You have the choice of registering in one of two ways:
- creating a new account by providing a username, your email address, and other information, or
- using an existing account that you have with Facebook, Google, etc.
You will be asked to enter a password which must include letters, numbers, and a symbol (for example, $, #, %). Then click on “Log in” and you are now part of the PestNet community. Click on visit and you will see recent submissions to PestNet and can then add your own submission or respond to other submissions, or just read the submissions that are already there, using the search engine to go back in time if you wish.
If you join via social media, click on the one of your choice and follow the directions.
Once you are a member, you can now click on the symbol of a person on the top tool bar to open up a template that enables you to add further details about yourself and your interests and to choose various preferences concerning your PestNet activities – see screen shot below.
