The most effective type of cockroach control
Use several methods simultaneously to reduce
Cockroach populations. specialists
Pest control farms used this
way for years. This method of multiple tactics
It's called Integrated Pest Management (IPM).
The basic components of MIP are:
1) Identify the pest.
2) Understand biology and behavior
from the plague.
3) Determine if control is needed.
4) Determine all control measures that are
appropriate to the specific situation,
Including measures without chemicals or with
Chemicals.
5) implement safe monitoring tactics and

6) Evaluation of control efforts.
