Responsible Pest Control with USX Pest
USX Pest Control relies on an integrated pest management (IPM) approach to handle pest problems safely and effectively. These flexible, dynamic strategies allow us remove pests and prevent them from returning while posing a minimal risk to people, pets, wildlife, and the environment.
We use this method to effectively eliminate pests with a focus on prevention and maintenance. At the heart of IPM are various factors related to the ecosystem that naturally impact pests’ abilities to thrive now and in the future.

Integrated Pest Management Methods
Biological Pest Control
Using this type of IPM involves using a pest’s natural predators to keep its population in check. This type of IPM can be used to manage various pests, including insects, unwanted weeds, and mites. The three biological pest control strategies include:
- Importation: Introducing a pest’s natural enemy to gain control
- Augmentation: Administering large populations of a pest’s natural enemies to specific locations for fast control
- Conservation: Maintaining populations of pest’s natural enemies using routine reestablishment methods
Physical Pest Control
This IPM method includes physically removing pests, adding barriers, and using controls to make the environment unappealing or unfit for pests. It could mean adding barriers to cut pests off from food sources, introducing hazards to discourage them, using traps, mowing, vacuuming, and implementing other physical removal methods that are appropriate for the specific pest.
Cultural Pest Control
Making it harder for pests to survive in the environment can effectively eliminate them. This includes removing food sources and water and reducing areas that can be used for shelter. By minimizing favorable conditions, we can help to deter pests from affected areas without resorting to potentially harmful chemicals that could impact the ecosystem.
