Integrated Pest Management: New Approach to Pest Control A new approach to pest control is now being promoted and it’s called the integrated pest management, which is a cost-effective strategy in combating pest problems without the unnecessary use of chemical pesticides which produce harmful effects to people, animals, and the environment. There’s a possibility of an existing pest infestation in an area when signs of pest activity and existing conditions, such as food, water and shelter are available for pests to thrive, such that the first approach of integrated pest management starts by inspecting the concerned area. Eliminating the existence of the basic necessities of pests in your area eliminates the presence of pest, which is a basic preventive approach, and there are other preventive strategies, such as: improving sanitation, sealing cracks to eliminate pest habitat, installing door sweeps to keep out mice or insects, and fixing leaking pipes and fittings to remove the presence of excess water. The following ailments have been linked to chemical spraying to control and eliminate pests: leukemia, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, brain tumors, lower birth weight, and congenital heart defects, and it is the children’s health that is mostly affected by pesticide spraying. In San Francisco in 1996, instead of using spray pesticides, integrated pest management approaches were applied and succeeded in eliminating large cockroach infestations in the buildings and facilities, and from that time on, the city has largely reduced the use of pesticide in eliminating the breeding of cockroaches for its buildings. When chemical pesticides are sprayed in buildings or tracked in from out of doors, the chemical presence remains for months, presenting a risk exposure to the residents and pesticides that are sprayed outdoors may contaminate runoffs and waterways.
