Pest Prevention with Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

Terminix Canada employs a pest prevention technique called integrated pest management (IPM). An effective IPM strategy is composed of four unique sections. These are prevention, observation, intervention and exclusion.

The first three stages of integrated pest management are fairly straightforward. Meanwhile, many people are unaware that exclusion is a crucial part of any pest control services. This is because preventative pest and animal control measures eliminate potential problems before they occur.

How Integrated Pest Management Prevents Pest Problems

Our organic IPM, which includes pest exclusion, is designed to keep pests and wildlife out of your home before they’re even a problem. Pest exclusion methods include temporary solutions such a sprays and deterrents. Secondly, permanent pest management solutions, like vent covers, require no further attention beyond the initial implementation.

Terminix Canada helps your home remain a pest-free zone for the foreseeable future. We ensure this by using a unique combination of sanitation, pest extermination (when required), and organic IPM.

We’ll work with you to determine the best pest control services to keep pests and animals out. Our goal is find solutions that are effective, but require as little maintenance as possible. This can include structural modifications which deter nests and roosting. Elsewhere, covers and nets that keep pests out, to chemical sprays that act as short-term deterrents.

We recommend pest prevention methods to our customers, especially when it comes to humane wildlife control. Exclusion often requires relatively small changes that can make a big difference in stopping a problem before it occurs, eliminating the need for more expensive pest extermination treatments down the road.
