INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
Benefits of Integrated Pest Management
Before telling you what IPM is, it is valuable to tell you what the benefits are. Instead of bathing your home or business with toxic chemicals, many of which are known carcinogens, we use common sense, our knowledge of pest biology, and a well-designed set of actions to get pests out and to keep them out. Pesticides treat the symptom, and once their toxicity has faded, the pests will return and you’ll have to spray again. This is unhealthy, bad for business, especially for restaurants, and completely unnecessary.
Using IPM eliminates the need for frequent reapplication of pesticides. We attack the problem at the root and stop re-infestations.
Another thing to note is that pesticides often make their way into our water system, where their endocrine-disrupting ingredients can have extremely detrimental effects to the environment and your health.
