Pest Control Plan Keeps Plants Glean and Green

摘要

With Earth Day celebrations taking place around the world on April 22, there's no better time to ponder how you can reduce your facility's environmental impact. One easy way to make your plant a little "greener" this year is to re-examine your pest management program. You may be thinking, 'What does pest control have to do with helping the environment? Doesn't my pest control service rely on all kinds of chemicals?' Maybe, but it doesn't have to. In fact, a smart, proactive program can achieve the control your sensitive facility needs with far less pesticide than you might imagine. And, new technologies can reduce the need for pesticides even further. The result? A cleaner, safer facility and ideally, better inspection grades. So how can you be clean and green? Without question, the first step is to set up an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program. True IPM calls for pesticides only when non-chemical methods fail, and then only in careful applications designed to control a specific pest problem.
