Question 1

Is Integrated Pest Management (IPM) more expensive than traditional spraying?

Accepted Answer

While initial IPM services may involve upfront exclusion repairs like weep hole netting or door sweep installations, long-term costs are often lower because permanent physical barriers reduce the need for frequent intensive chemical treatments.

Question 2

Does IPM take longer to eliminate an active infestation?

Accepted Answer

For severe infestations, IPM baiting systems work over several days to allow worker insects to distribute active agents throughout the hidden colony, producing complete colony collapse rather than temporary surface knockdown.

Question 3

Can IPM be used for commercial food service businesses in Dallas?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In fact, IPM is the preferred gold standard for commercial restaurants, food warehouses, and healthcare facilities where strict health codes and food safety regulations prohibit broad-spectrum chemical spraying.
