Inspection and Assessment:

Conducting a thorough inspection of the affected area to identify the type and extent of the pest infestation.
Assessing the potential risks to human health, property, and the environment.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM):

Implementing Integrated Pest Management, a holistic approach that combines multiple strategies to control pests.
IPM strategies include biological control, cultural practices, mechanical control, chemical control (if necessary), and ongoing monitoring.

Biological Control:

Introducing natural predators, parasites, or pathogens that target the pest species, helping to control their population.
Examples include releasing ladybugs to control aphids or using nematodes to combat soil-dwelling pests.

Trapping and Exclusion:

Using traps or barriers to capture or prevent pests from entering buildings or specific areas.
Common examples include mousetraps, rodent bait stations, and exclusionary measures like sealing entry points.

Residential and Commercial Pest Control:

Providing pest control services tailored to residential or commercial properties.
Commercial pest control may include restaurants, hotels, warehouses, and healthcare facilities.

Regular Monitoring and Maintenance:

Ongoing monitoring to ensure that pest populations remain under control.
Implementing preventive measures to deter future infestations.

Regulatory Compliance:

Adhering to local, state, and federal regulations regarding pest control and pesticide use.
Licensing and certification for pest control professionals.
