Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

Abell Pest Control’s philosophy lies in our Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach. Based on prevention, monitoring and control, our IPM program provides pest elimination while reducing the use of control products.

An IPM program incorporates multiple measures to not only eliminate pests but also prevent their attraction to your facility. Some of the pieces such a program would include are:

  • Visual Inspection - to determine pest presence
  • Monitoring - to detect pests and assess level of control success
  • Identification - to determine what the pest is, permitting proper course of action
  • Sanitation - cleaning to eliminate pest food sources
  • Exclusion / Structural Maintenance - keeping pests out while preventing movement within the building
  • Harbourage Elimination - removing hiding areas for pests
  • Mechanical Control - using equipment such as mousetraps or vacuums to remove pests
  • Chemical Control - using insecticides and rodenticides to eliminate pests
  • Record Keeping and Analysis - looking for trends in pest activity to identify susceptible areas
  • Education - informing unit renters of their role in pest management

Organic Facilities Management Program

Abell Pest Control is also a recognized leader in organic facilities management with a nationally recognized technical program.

Our solutions for Organic Facilities Management are extensive. Abell’s industry leading strategy is proactive and combines innovative materials with a scientific strategy to target pests at their source.

Our preference is to deliver results without disrupting your operations, requiring costly preparation or clean up time and without putting you, your staff, your customers or the environment at risk.

Your Organic Facilities Management Program is designed to detect pests, determine the problems and correction, whether that be exclusion, sanitation, or other methods. Control products such as pesticides would only be used as a last option, and with your approval and involvement.
