What is Urban Integrated Pest Management?
Urban Integrated Pest Management (UIPM) is an effective and environmentally sensitive approach to long-term management of pest problems by the most economical means, and with minimum impact on human health, property and the environment. UIPM programs are educationally based (Strong knowledge of the target pest population dynamics is required) and use a combination of pest prevention methods, non-chemical treatments and, if needed, least toxic alternatives, to solve pest problems in sensitive environments.
