Inspection
Inspection is the foundationto any good pest managementprogram

Review Existing Problem with Customer
An interview with the customer is important
The customer’s perception of the problem may be differentthan the PMP.
The customer is a good guide to evaluate current pest problems.

Identify PestThe proper identification of pests is crucial
It is necessary to properly identify pests to properly plan a pest management strategy.
Misidentification can result in the use of ineffective control methods.

Determine Tolerance Level
Each customer will have a different sensitivity to pest populations
There are many variables that go into determining tolerance levels
Fear of pestsPerceived or real impact on health or propertyRisk of contamination to products or production equipmentIf tolerance levels for a particular pest have been exceeded, it is time for IPM
![Page 6: P.C.O.C. Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a0550346895db3ba17/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Assess Target and Non-Target Species
The inspection and interview will reveal which pest species are of particular concern.
Effort must be made to ensure the safety of non-target species.

Bait Stations
In situations requiring baiting, properly secured tamper resistant stations will help reduce the hazard to non-target species.
Non-chemical treatment techniques should be employed in environmentally sensitive areas where non-target species are present

Identify Harborage Areas
Harborage areas should be identified for the pests of concern.
An action plan should be developed with the customer to find the best way to reduce the pest harborages.
![Page 9: P.C.O.C. Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a0550346895db3ba17/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Determine Conducive Conditions
It is necessary to identify where pest are living
Actual and potential harborage areas should be identified for the pests of concern.

An action plan should be developed with the customer to find the best way to reduce the pest harborages.

Identify WaterwaysIt is necessary to identify any waterway on or near the property to be treated
Applications should be avoided in close proximity to lakes, ponds, rivers, streams, and other waterways
![Page 12: P.C.O.C. Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a0550346895db3ba17/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Identify potential run off areas
Treatments with residual materials in and near drains, gutters, ditches and other areas where water flows during precipitation or irrigation must be avoided.
![Page 13: P.C.O.C. Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a0550346895db3ba17/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Evaluate Irrigation System/Watering Cycle
Irrigation is needed but the impact of irrigation water on pest control materials and pests must be considered.
1) Over watering could cause trace amounts of pesticides to end up in waterways.
2) Over watering can also attract pests which may result in the need for additional chemical applications.
![Page 14: P.C.O.C. Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a0550346895db3ba17/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Assess Environmental& Weather conditions
The PMP should evaluate weather conditions prior to making a chemical application.
If precipitation is expected, exterior treatments should be postponed or limited to areas protected form the weather.
![Page 15: P.C.O.C. Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a0550346895db3ba17/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Identify Landscape Type and Treatment Surfaces
Hardscapes, such as concrete and asphalt do not hold some materials very well.
Different soil types vary in how well they retain pesticides.
![Page 16: P.C.O.C. Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070410/568146a0550346895db3ba17/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Identify Landscape Type and Treatment Surfaces
Care should be taken to place treatments into pest harborages such as cracks and crevices to maximize effectiveness and minimize the amount of materials needed.

Documentation
It is necessary to communicate the findings of the inspection in writing
When making recommendations for correction to a customer, do so in writing. This will reassure the customer that what you are saying is important and increases the chances that they will follow your professional recommendations
