IPM Florida provides statewide, interdisciplinary and inter-unit coordination
and assistance for UF, IFAS integrated pest management research, extension and
education faculty.
To improve the economic benefits of adopting IPM practices and to reduce potential risks to human health and the environment caused by the pests themselves or by the use of pest management practices
National IPM Program Goals
Nursery IPM
• Profitability- cost of pest management (knowledge, licensing, storage, reporting, equipment, resistance management, invasive species)
• Human health- worker protection (pesticide application, reentry)
• Environmental safety- surface
and ground water, air pollution
Why Do We Have Pest Outbreaks?
Alien Invasive Species Local Invasions Pesticide Resistance Disrupted Environments Perceptions
Alien Invasive Species
Florida has > 13,000 insect species
New alien invasive species arrive
A few become established pests
Local Invasions
Pesticide Resistance
The (mistaway) system uses a bio-degradable insecticide derived from the chrysanthemum
flower called pyrethrum.
