What is IPM?

Integrated Pest Management or IPM is a method of combining common sense practices and science to help reduce or prevent pest infestations. The IPM foundation is built on inspection and prescribed methods of treatment with the lowest impact to public health and environment.  IPM is not a single method but a combination of mechanical, structural, chemical, sanitation and cultural strategies.  IPM methods and results are only successful if a partnership between the pest control professional and the customer exists
