Free Webinar, Thursday, October 4, 1 EDT, 12 CDT, 10 PDT.
There are many shades of green when it comes to managing pests. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices can range from a basic “treat when over threshold based on monitoring” approach to advanced techniques focused on eliminating pest-conducive conditions. So how can you transition your pest management program from basic to advanced IPM?
Green Shield Certified®, an award-winning, independent certification for practitioners of effective, prevention-based IPM, will host a free webinar on Thursday, October 4, at 12:00PM CDT. Participants will learn how to use green pest management techniques to solve even the most difficult pest problems. Topics include:
- Basic vs. advanced IPM
- Importance of advanced IPM
- Using green techniques to eliminate pests
- Unique examples of difficult pest problems
- Benefits of offering an advanced IPM service
Speakers include: Dr. Austin Frishman, president, AMF Pest Management Services; Keith Willingham, vice president of technical services, Western Exterminator Company; and Dr. Thomas Green, president, IPM Institute. Time will be provided at the end of the presentation for Q & A.
