IPM makes homes healthier!
Pests Cause Problems• Trigger/cause asthma and allergies• Bite • Contaminate food• Lead people to overreact and ignore pesticide labels• Transmit disease• Hitchhike in belongings• Violate housing codes

Priority Pests• Cockroaches cause asthma in infants, trigger
asthma attacks, and contaminate food.
• Rodents such as mice and rats carry diseases, bite, destroy property, may cause fires, and may trigger asthma attacks.
• Bed Bugs and their bites are a nuisance and are expensive to eliminate.

What You Will Gain
IPM will give you…• A healthier building: Fewer asthma attacks,
less exposure to pesticides, and less of a chance you will take pests home.
• Fewer complaints: A Boston Housing Authority development reduced cockroach work orders by 68% after one year of IPM.
• Fewer pests: You can stop infestations from growing and spreading disease.

“We do IPM because it is the right thing to do and because it works. Allowing our residents to live in a pest-free home is a basic service as well as a huge quality of life issue.”

IPM and Healthy Homes
• Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a key part of a nationwide Healthy Homes movement to reduce housing-based health hazards.
• A healthy home is:– Dry– Clean– Ventilated– Safe– Contaminant-free– Maintained– Pest-free

HUD’s Voluntary Guidance
• “Offers the potential efficacy of pest elimination while protecting the health of residents and staff.”
• “Will extend the useful life of property and, thereby, generate significant savings that offset costs of the pest control operations.”
• “Effective in preventing moisture intrusion and accumulation.”

Another View of IPM
• Invest time and materials for repair and education.
• Protect through exclusion, sanitation, and careful
product choice based on least risk to human health and the environment and compatibility with other management practices.
• Maintain with monitoring, communication, and
documentation so that infestations do not grow.

Concerns with Pesticides• Pests can become tolerant of or avoid pesticides.• Risk from exposure may outweigh the benefit of
killing pests.• Possible harm to pets and wildlife.• Certain populations may be especially vulnerable
or sensitive to some pesticides:– Elderly; children; pregnant women– People with breathing or lung disorders such
as asthma– People with multiple chemical sensitivities

Sanitation
• Good sanitation makes pest control work.
• Eliminate hiding spots, food, and water available at night by- reducing clutter;- throwing away dead cockroaches;- cleaning frass and areas where there were cockroaches with simple soap and water.

35
Targeted Chemical Use
• Sanitation first!• Maintenance staff and residents should not
spray. Spraying should be a last resort and done only by a PMP.
• Read the ENTIRE pesticide label before buying, using, storing, or disposing of a product.
• The label is the law!• Follow the label directions closely.

Baits
• The most effective pesticide option.• Won’t work if contaminated by strong- smelling
cleaners or other chemicals, pesticide sprays or foggers, or nicotine from cigarette smoke.
• Use in every room.

37
Baits
• The bait needs to be the only food in the area—sanitation first!
• Slow to kill: Cockroaches feed on the bait, take it back to their hiding spots, feed their friends, and THEN they’ll drop dead.

Insecticidal Dusts
• Active ingredients may be boric acid or diatomaceous earth
• How they kill cockroaches:– Scratch their outer layers– Dry them out– Plug their breathing holes
• Long-lasting

Insecticidal Dusts• Effective if used correctly.• Light dusting instead of piles.• Use in walls before fixing them.• Under and behind cabinets at turnover or when
making large repairs…but clean first!
