Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an approach to controlling pests such as insects, spiders and mice that uses regular monitoring and inspections to determine if and when treatments are needed. IPM employs a combination of strategies and tactics to prevent pest damage or annoyance. Biological, cultural, physical, mechanical, educational, and chemical methods are used in site-specific combinations to solve pest problems. Are you having problems with insects, spiders, and more… if so, check out Insects, Spiders, Mice & More from UNL Extension in Lancaster County for resources to help identify and find solutions in dealing with these pests.

The Department of Entomology’s Urban Pest Management Program conducts the annual Urban Pest Management Conference, provides information on public health pests, and does research to help determine innovative ways to control pests such as termites, ants and cockroaches.
