Integrated pest management

What Is Integrated Pest Management and How Does It Benefit You? 

Integrated pest management (IPM) is a holistic approach towards pest risk management by utilising proactive control methods. It requires a combination of pest exclusion practices that involves good sanitation procedures along with extensive monitoring. With IPM in place, you can mitigate potential pest infestation eventually saving your business cost in the long run.

Why do you need IPM?

• Early detection of potential pest problem reduces risk of infestation
• Monitoring of pest trend helps determine the right dispersion of pesticides
