Initial Pest Management (IPM)
PestOff will conduct initial interior and exterior inspection and provide a written report that identifies problem areas and recommends structural, sanitary and/or procedural modifications to reduce pests’ access to food, water and shelter.
IPM Monitoring Plan:
PestOff may submit a monitoring plan for building manager approval in advance of any contracted work.
The plan may include:
1. An ongoing monitoring proposal for all locations where there is an active infestation, pest evidence or conditions potentially leading to infestation
2. Meetings or calls after treatment of infested areas
3. Recommended procedures for unit turnover
Insect Control
a. All labor and materials will be included in initial cost.
b. All harborage areas (i.e., cabinets, sinks, closets, pantries) and cracks, crevices and breeding sites where pests have been identified will be treated with baits. Monitoring boards will be used to guide and evaluate indoor insect control efforts where necessary.
c. During each service visit, special attention will be paid to active sites, including kitchen and bath areas, spaces beneath sinks, counters, appliances, etc.
Rodent Control
a. Sealing up property any and all accessible entry points using foam, concrete, silicon, etc.
b. Trapping: Setting traps and using bait techniques. We will eliminate interior population (typically in a few visits).
c. Continue monthly services until initial issues are resolved, then go to a lesser frequency. Schedule to maintain success.
PestOff will use all IPM methods when possible.
