How do we prevent or manage
pests?
• Cultural Controls
• Mechanical Controls
• Biological Controls
• Chemical Controls

Control vs Manage
• These terms tend to be used interchangeably, but do they mean the same thing? – What do you think of when someone says
controlling cockroaches?
– What do you think of when someone says they are managing a weed problem?
• Why do you think we call it Integrated Pest Management and not Integrated Pest Control?

It is easier to prevent a problem
than solve it!
(Cultural Controls)
• Cultural control just means we do
things to prevent a problem
– Keep plants healthy with good
conditions and water
![Page 5: IPM-based Pest Management UIS.pdffocused less on plant health and more on the pest. Mechanical controls •Dust strips help keep insects out of buildings Mechanical Controls •Picking](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050522/5fa5747f23c0a7337d38d0ac/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Cultural controls
• Mulch prevents weeds
• Reduces water loss from soil
• Keeps lawnmowers and weedtrimmer that might damage tree away from the trunk

Cultural Controls
Plant the right plant for the area
Hostas prefer shade!

Keep the pest out of the
house or away from the
plants!
(Mechanical Controls)
• Similar to cultural controls, but
focused less on plant health and
more on the pest.

Mechanical controls
• Dust strips help keep insects out of
buildings

Mechanical Controls
• Picking pests off the plant

Mechanical Controls
• Netting keeps pests off plants

Mechanical Controls
• Dislodging,
pruning
• Cultivating

Using what nature gave us!
(Biological Controls)
• Natural enemies – Insect predators or parasites that eat pest
insects or weeds
• Insect pathogens
– Diseases that kill pest insects
![Page 13: IPM-based Pest Management UIS.pdffocused less on plant health and more on the pest. Mechanical controls •Dust strips help keep insects out of buildings Mechanical Controls •Picking](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050522/5fa5747f23c0a7337d38d0ac/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Predators
• Larger and more active than
prey
• Usually eat more than one pest
insect
Lacewing larva Ladybug larva

Parasites
• Smaller than host (food source)
• Live in or on the host
Egg of a parasitic fly

Mechanical controls •Dust strips help keep insects out of buildings Mechanical Controls •Picking](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050522/5fa5747f23c0a7337d38d0ac/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Parasites
• Tiny wasps and flies
• Grow in or on host
• Eventually kill host
– Parasites do not normally kill their host

• The white things are pupa, not eggs
• Tiny wasp

Pathogens
• Disease or infection
• Bacteria, viruses, fungi, nematodes
• Weaken and kill pests
![Page 18: IPM-based Pest Management UIS.pdffocused less on plant health and more on the pest. Mechanical controls •Dust strips help keep insects out of buildings Mechanical Controls •Picking](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050522/5fa5747f23c0a7337d38d0ac/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Chemical Controls
• Substances for killing,
preventing or repelling pests
• Applied control
• Should be used along with
other IPM methods
![Page 19: IPM-based Pest Management UIS.pdffocused less on plant health and more on the pest. Mechanical controls •Dust strips help keep insects out of buildings Mechanical Controls •Picking](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022050522/5fa5747f23c0a7337d38d0ac/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Chemical Controls on
Plants
• Use least toxic products • Soap-based insecticides are less harmful to
natural enemies
• Don’t spray flowering plants • Spraying flowering plants will kill beneficial
pollinating insects

Chemical Control Indoors
• Determine best method of using chemical
– For instance baits are effective for many roach and ant species and do not expose people to as much chemical
• Determine why insects are indoors and take steps to prevent them along with using chemicals
• Be careful applying chemicals so that pets, children and adults do not contact them very much

Discussion Question
• What pests would be most common
indoors and outdoors at your school.
• What steps do you think your school takes
to prevent pest problems?
