The New York State Integrated Pest Management Program has long been involved in school IPM. With the beginning of this new blog, dedicated specifically to providing informative and engaging content, we create a place for education and interaction. We are also actively working to bring IPM beyond the traditional school settings to include childcare facilities.

This blog will be for those who are experienced in the subject of pest management as well as those new to the idea. School and Childcare IPM takes place inside buildings and on their grounds and is the joint responsibility of custodians, groundskeepers, health and safety officers, certified pest applicators, school and childcare staff, parents, and coaches. We will provide valid content and call upon the expertise of experienced pest management educators.  If you have found us, it is because you are also concerned with the health of students and staff.

Here is the link to the New York State Integrated Pest Management Program’s School IPM page. Thanks for visiting us. We hope to see you back here often.
