Green Shield Certified will host a webinar titled “Advanced IPM Techniques for Green Pest Management” on Oct. 4, at noon (CST).
 
IPM is a common sense approach to preventing pests through inspection, monitoring, sanitation and exclusion while reducing reliance on pesticides. IPM practices can range from a basic "treat when over threshold based on monitoring" approach to advanced techniques focused on eliminating pest-conducive conditions.
