How to Use This Tool

1. Rate the infestation severity. Based on your inspection findings, select the level of pest activity observed at the property.

2. Check all observed pests and conditions. Select every pest type found and every conducive condition present. More factors = higher risk score.

3. Note prior treatment history. Properties with lapsed treatments have escalating risk over time.

4. Review the recommendation. Use the output as a starting point for your treatment proposal and customer education.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an IPM score?
An IPM (Integrated Pest Management) score is a numerical risk assessment that combines pest severity, conducive conditions, prior treatment history, and maintenance quality into a single number. Scores of 0-5 indicate low risk, 6-10 moderate risk, 11-15 high risk, and 16+ severe risk requiring immediate action.
What is integrated pest management?
IPM is a science-based approach to pest management that prioritizes prevention, monitoring, and targeted treatment over blanket chemical application. It combines biological controls, habitat modification, exclusion, and chemical treatments as a last resort to minimize environmental impact while effectively controlling pests.
How do you assess pest risk for a property?
Assess pest risk by evaluating infestation severity (none to high), counting conducive conditions (moisture, gaps, debris, vegetation contact), reviewing treatment history and intervals, and rating the property's maintenance quality. These factors combine into an overall risk score that guides treatment recommendations.
