Integrated Pest Management Program
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is the most advanced pest management program available in the market today. Integrated Pest Services approach, utilizes preventive and corrective pest management strategies that include inspection, monitoring, managed product use and record keeping. This systematized program is an excellent method of resolving pest concerns, and Integrated Pest Services will design a custom IPM program to meet your needs.
Inspection
Integrated Pest Services representatives are trained to conduct thorough inspections and identify pests that may be present in your facility. Visual inspections of interior and exterior conditions will provide valuable information regarding the location of active pest infestations and possible control strategies. Additionally, the inspections target areas that are particularly sensitive to insect activity.
Monitoring
Insect monitors are strategically placed in the facility to trap portions of the pest population and identify areas of other pest activity. Additionally, your Pest Sighting Log keeps a running record of pest sightings and monitors the level of activity on a continuing basis. This monitoring component is an integral part of our recurring service.
Managed Product Use
The goal of IPM is to develop a comprehensive system of handling pest management issues without total reliance on pesticide products. For example, Integrated Pest Services may caulk a harborage zone in order to eliminate a pest access point. However, we will also use EPA approved products to resolve infestations. Baiting and trapping techniques are used extensively to minimize the use of pesticide applications to the facility. Your participation is essential to managed product use. Proper sanitation and the reduction of other conditions that are conductive to infestations will help maximize the effectiveness of our services. As with any partnership, your cooperation and participation are valued and appreciated.
Service Visits
Your IPM Program consists of a comprehensive initial service followed by regularly scheduled services.
Initial Services
Integrated Pest Services will conduct an intensive initial service to reduce the pest population below the threshold level you have established.
This includes a thorough inspection to evaluate pest activity, identify access entry points and determine treatment strategies. Complete access to storage rooms, utility rooms, kitchen and food storage areas, stairwells, electrical rooms and other critical areas is an essential part of this process.
