How IPM decisions are actually made

IPM is often used as a marketing word for "we use less spray", which misses the point. It is a sequence of decisions: monitor to find out what is actually there, decide whether the level found justifies acting at all, then work through physical and cultural controls before reaching for a product. The discipline is in the willingness to conclude that no treatment is needed.

The IPM decision sequence, applied to a real example
StepWhat happensWorked example: ants in a break room
1. Identify Establish the species, not just the pest group Odorous house ant, confirmed from size and the coconut smell when crushed
2. Monitor Place monitors and record numbers over time Trail active on two mornings out of five; no activity elsewhere in the building
3. Set a threshold Decide what level justifies action here Any trail in a food area is above threshold; a single ant on an exterior path is not
4. Non-chemical first Sanitation, exclusion, moisture and habitat changes Bin relocated, drink spills addressed, gap at the window frame sealed
5. Targeted treatment Apply product only where monitoring justifies it, at the harbourage Gel bait at two trail points; no broadcast spraying in the room
6. Verify Re-monitor to confirm the decision worked Monitors clear at two weeks; no further bait needed
7. Record Document what was found, decided and applied Written into the service report and the trend log
