What
is your definition of Integrated Pest Management (IPM)? |
|
IPM is a three-step process: sanitation,
exclusion, and only as a last resort, if at all, use of pesticides.
Pests are a symptom - fix the problem and the symptom will go away. |

We provide quarterly service though our

|
How are pest problems identified? |
|
We have a 64-point checklist to inspect
and identify. An overall view of our method is to inspect exterior,
interior, attic, crawlspace and garage. Next identy three sources
of the pest in each space: the conditions for harborage, the avenues
for insects to enter the structure, and sources of insect infestation. |
