To learn more about my IPM Scouting and Consulting Services, please fill out the form below. I will contact you promptly via email or phone.
My IPM programs help clients reduce costs and exposure while improving efficacy. This is accomplished by properly identifying plant pests and problems that reduce crop quality and yield, understanding insect and disease life cycles, and providing effective management strategies that will be implemented at the proper time.
Successful use of this program leads to a reduction in the use of harsh chemicals and run-off-related issues. It will increase worker safety, promote beneficial organisms, and improve environmental health.
