Landscape Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

Learn how to use the environment to your favor! Integrated Pest Management (or IPM) is a common sense approach to pest control that reduces reliance on chemical pesticides as a sole method of controlling pests. A combination of strategies is used to predict, prevent, and manage landscape insects and diseases. These IPM strategies are proactive, not reactions to the presence of a pest. IPM programs result in effective landscape pest control with diminished economic, health, and environmental risks.

This class covers both turf and ornamentals. Take Day One only to learn IPM philosophy, monitoring, and implementation strategies – or take the full three days for a comprehensive study featuring degree day models, improving soil health, insect and disease ID, creative ways of removing unwanted pests, and more!

Speaker(s): Bill Errickson, George Hamilton, Steve Kristoph, Bruce Neary, Steve Rettke
