Pest Management
Integrated pest management (IPM) is an effective approach to managing pests in urban environments. Urban pest management includes the management of pests such as rodents, insects, and birds, which can cause health and safety concerns in residential and commercial areas. IPM in urban pest management involves a combination of strategies such as sanitation, exclusion, habitat modification, and biological control, which can reduce pest populations and prevent future infestations. In addition, IPM programs can help minimize the use of pesticides and reduce the risk of pesticide exposure to humans and non-target organisms. Successful implementation of an IPM program in urban pest management requires a comprehensive understanding of the pest biology and behavior, and a tailored approach that takes into consideration the specific needs and challenges of each urban area. By using IPM, urban areas can not only effectively control pests, but also create a healthier and safer environment.
The four Fundamental Principles of IPM are:
(1) Denial of Entry of Pests by Exclusion method.
(2) Denial of Food & Water by eliminating the sources of food and water.
(3) Denial of shelter by eliminating harbourage and breeding stations.
(4) Destroy. Application of Pesticides as a last resort.
Chemicals will be applied only on an “as needed” basis. The need for chemicals will be determined by an initial thorough inspection and follow up monitoring of pest activity.

Ants are social insects that belong to the family Formicidae, which includes over 12,000 known species. They are found on every continent except Antarctica and inhabit a variety of ecosystems, including forests, deserts, and grasslands.
Ants are known for their organized and highly cooperative societies, where each individual has a specific role and contributes to the success of the colony as a whole. The queen ant is the largest member of the colony and is responsible for laying eggs, while the worker ants are responsible for foraging, caring for the young, and defending the colony. Ants communicate with each other through chemical signals called pheromones, which they use to mark trails, identify members of their own colony, and signal danger. They can also solve complex problems and have been shown to use tools to solve puzzles and obtain food. Ants are omnivorous and will eat a variety of things including nectar, seeds, and other insects. Some ant species are known for their ability to grow mushrooms or raise aphids for honeydew. Ants play an important role in the ecosystem as both predators and prey. They help regulate insect populations, aerate the soil, and are a food source for many other animals. They are also important for seed dispersal and soil nutrient cycling.
Bed bugs are small, reddish-brown insects that feed on the blood of people and other animals. They are usually found where people sleep, such as beds, sofas, and chairs. Bed bugs are nocturnal and can be difficult to spot during the day as they hide in cracks and crevices.
Bed bug bites can cause itching, swelling, redness and can lead to secondary infections. They do not carry disease, but their bites can be very unpleasant and in some cases may require medical attention. Bed bugs are known to be difficult to get rid of once they have settled in a room. They can move from place to place on clothes, luggage, and furniture, so they can easily spread to new places. Treatment usually involves thorough cleaning, treatment with pesticides, and the use of special equipment such as steam cleaners. Prevention is key when it comes to bed bugs. Avoid bringing home used furniture or clothes, check hotel rooms before moving in, and take steps to keep your home clean and uncluttered to reduce places where bed bugs can hide.
Based on fossil records, cockroaches have remained little changed for 200 million years. There are over 4000 different species of cockroaches worldwide – not all are regarded as pests.
American cockroach: Adult size 34-53mm; the adult is reddish brown in colour and is fully winged. Male wings extend beyond the tip of the abdomen. Female wings do not.
German cockroach: Adult size 13-16mm; the adult is light brown in colour with two dark almost parallel longitudinal stripes on their pronotal shield. They are found throughout buildings but show a preference for warm humid areas; they are good climbers, being able to climb vertical glass or tiled surfaces; an infestation of these cockroaches can be quickly established once they have entered any premises
Houseflies are potential vectors of a wide range of diseases such as dysentery, gastroenteritis and tuberculosis and can also transmit intestinal worms. These flies move from filth to food indiscriminately and may therefore move pathogens from dirty to clean areas. Fly Spotting is produced when feeding and defecating.
Breeding time is generally during the months June to September.
Rodents have the ability to adapt themselves to almost any environment. Their great reproductive potential, natural cunning and survivability puts them among the most successful animals on earth. Rodents use the five senses of smell, touch, hearing, sight and taste in order to survive.
Rodents can cause damage to food intended for humans, by consumption, contamination with faeces and urine, as well as other physical and microbiological contaminants. Rodents have the capability to spread many
human pathogens, such as Salmonella spp, Listeria spp, Escherichia coli, Cryptosporidium parvum, Leptospira spp, Hantaviruses, Bubonic plague and Toxoplasmosis.
Mosquitoes are blood sucking insects that are responsible for the transmission of many diseases throughout the human and animal populations of the world. Most mosquitoes disperse less than two kilometres; some move only a few metres away from their original breeding place, others can fly some 5 or 10 kilometres, and a few species will disperse up to 50 kilometres downwind from the larval habitats. On average, a female mosquito will live 2-3 weeks, but the male’s lifespan is shorter. Within their lifetime both adult male and female will feed on nectar and plant fluids, but it is only the female that will seek a blood meal. Malaria, Dengue fever, Chikun gunya are the major deadly diseases transmitted by Mosquitoes.
Termites are often termed as the collateral destructors. When we see mud tubes on the walls inside the house, we come to know that there is termite infestation. This stage normally reaches after 2 to 3 years of harborage of termites beneath the building. By this time majority of the wooden door frames, other woodworks etc would be damaged by 85%. They even eat up the electrical wiring pipes and even wiring insulation which lead into electrical short circuits and accidental fires.
