What Is Integrated Pest Management (IPM)?
The United States Environmental Protection Agency defines Integrated Pest Management (IPM) as an “effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest management that relies on a combination of common-sense practices… to manage pest damage by the most economical means.”
Common IPM practices include:
- Disrupting conditions pests need to live and breed (e.g. removing standing water sources where mosquito larvae develop), which is known as a cultural control
- Barring access to your home or business (e.g. installing screens so mosquitoes cannot gain easy entry), which is known as a physical/structural control
- Introducing predators that prey on pests (e.g. mosquitofish, which feed on mosquito larvae), which is known as a biological control
- Using pesticides to reduce pest populations, which is known as a chemical control
Put simply, IPM aims to reduce pest problems without harming the environment, minimizing the use of caustic chemicals whenever possible. At Mosquito Sheriff, we not only offer IPM mosquito control programs, but our spray solution is also 100% all-natural and non-toxic, made from earth-grown ingredients like chrysanthemum and dandelion extract to provide a dual barrier and knockdown effect, without harming pets, plants, pollinators, or people!
Mosquito Control Programs In Owings, MD: Why Choose IPM?
- IPM is a highly effective mosquito control program. IPM isn’t only good for the environment—it’s good for the consumer, too. Multiple studies by the CDC and EPA have borne out the effectiveness of IPM mosquito control programs, so much so that it is now considered the “best approach to controlling mosquitoes” (EPA, 2021).At Mosquito Sheriff, we believe so strongly in the effectiveness of our IPM mosquito control program that we offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. If you’re not completely satisfied with the results of our mosquito control program after 21 days, we’ll return and re-treat your property at no additional charge—Sheriff’s Honor!
- IPM mosquito control programs are less expensive than traditional pest control. Compared to spray-centric mosquito control programs, which require a lot of expensive chemicals, IPM is much more cost-effective. And at Mosquito Sheriff, we price by the acre, not by the gallon, so you get even greater cost control. You can learn more about our prices on the Pricing page.
- IPM mosquito control programs protect Maryland’s food sources. Caustic chemical pesticides not only risk contaminating local food supplies, but also contribute to ecosystem destruction and declining pollinator populations, both of which make food harder for our farmers to grow. In contrast, IPM mosquito control programs are fully endorsed by the Maryland Pollinator Protection Plan. This makes our IPM mosquito control programs a natural choice for restaurateurs, grocery stores, and other businesses that involve food.
- IPM mosquito control programs are pet-friendly. Traditional pest control puts our pets at-risk. Not only does our IPM mosquito control program minimize the use of pesticides, but our spray solution is 100% all-natural and pet-safe, so you never need to worry.
