What is ‘IPM’?

  • Integrated Pest Management
  • Effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest

management that relies on a combination of commonsense practices

  • IPM is not a principle that can/should be strictly and

equally applied to every situation, but a philosophy that can guide the practitioner to use it as appropriate for the situation.
