Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

Definition: Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest management that relies on a variety of common-sense practices. IPM utilizes a combination of tactics such as habitat modification, exclusion, sanitation and monitoring.

Implementation: The UCSB IPM program works as follows:

A UCSB IPM Committee was established in November 1995 and has been meeting monthly. The goal of the committee is to develop IPM policies for the campus, minimize use of pesticides and maximize utilization of IPM.
