Integrated Pest Management RPC s service is based on a comprehensive Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program. The goal of IPM is to deliver effective pest control while at the same time reducing the volume and toxicity of pesticides used. IPM is a process for achieving long-term, environmentally sound pest control through the use of a wide variety of technological and management practices.

7 Integrated Pest Management RPC s service is based on a comprehensive Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program. The goal of IPM is to deliver effective pest control while at the same time reducing the volume and toxicity of pesticides used. IPM is a process for achieving long-term, environmentally sound pest control through the use of a wide variety of technological and management practices. Control techniques of an IPM program include a combination of pest monitoring, good sanitation practices, education, appropriate solid waste management, building maintenance, alternative physiccal, mechanical and biological pest control, and the use of pesticides when warranted according to a predetermined hierarchy of pest management choices, formulations and application techniques, which will minimise the exposure and potential risk to people and the environment. Within RPC s IPM system we include all standard pesticides, consumable materials, fully trained and approved service technicians, supervision and consultation. When conducting an IPM program, certain tools, dependent on the environment, are required to a successful program. The basis of these tools is to deliver effective pest control while at the same time only targeting those areas that are infested. This creates a process for achieving long-term, environmentally sound pest control while reducing the use of pesticides, minimising the exposure and potential risk to people and the environment. RPC formulates control strategies based on the clients requirement, safety considerations, building to be protected, environment and pests likely to be controlled. The following lists of commonly encountered pest details the reason for controlling such pests and many of our standard control solutions

8 Fly and Mosquito Control Flies and mosquitoes are a major vector pest in spreading disease. Flies live and breed in filth-riddden environments and can spread food poisoning bacteria and viruses when they land on our food. Mosquitoes are transmitters of numerous fatal diseases, such as Malaria and Dengue fever, which kill millions of people worldwide every year. Some of RPC s fly and mosquito control solutions are: Removal of Breeding Sources In order to control flying insect pests to optimal levels, the breeding sources must first be eliminated. RPC pays particular attention to its inspections and reporting systems that highlight breeding sources to the client, and provides suitable recommendations for rectification. Plastic Strip Curtains, Window Mesh Screens and Air Curtains As part of the initial Fly Control strategy, plastic strip curtains, windows screens and powerful air curtains can be used to provide a permanent physical control system to building openings. Electronic Fly Killers (EFK s) EFK s are often used to supplement an IPM system to help control flying insect pests. Effectively posittioned EFK s will provide a permanent control system solution that will intercept fly pests once they have passed the initial control systems. Professional EFK s are supplied by RPC in order to help control flying insect pests. We are able to offer a full range of models to suite every specified need. These needs could be based on the size of the area, operation and food safety requirements, as well as the need to blend in with the design of a public area. In order to ensure your EFK s work to optimal levels, RPC also offers EFK servicing programs. These include regular cleaning, checking of electrical grids, and replacement of UV lamps and glue boards. Window Fly Traps Once flies enter a building are often attracted to windows where they are drawn to natural UV light. IN such cases, RPC supplies a cost-effective, discrete window fly trap that can be easily installed and serviced. Fly Bait Bottles Where flies are a problem outside, such as in gardens, around pools and busy delivery bays, discrete odour attractant fly traps can be supplied by RPC. These will catch many flies and will help to reduce pest fly numbers. Larvicide s Treatment Where mosquito or fly breeding sources are located, RPC will normally apply a very low toxic larviccide directly to the source. This type of treatment is designed to stop the juvenile stages of the pest hatching in to the adult flying insect pest, helping to reduce pest swarms, complaint and spread of diseases. Fogging and ULV Space Treatments When flying insect pests are encountered it is often necessary to bring down the infestation level promptly. This can be achieved by applying selective insecticides as a fine mist or fog; these are commonly known as space treatments. The insecticide particles float in the air and will quickly come into contact with the fly pest as it flies through it. Space treatments are short-lived and unless the fly pest breeding source is located and the causes of the source rectified, it is likely that ongoing space treatments will be required.

9 Fly Bait and Residual Insecticides To help control fly insect pests, RPC can use a number of fly baits and residual insecticides that are targeted at the adult fly pests. These will often be applied to areas where the fly congregates, such as garbage areas, delivery bays, pool sides and external dining areas. Rat and Mice Control Rats and mice can be responsible for the spread of a range of diseases. They also contaminate millions of dollars worth of foodstuff every year with their urine and faeces, and can damage our property through their gnawing habits. RPC regularly encounters properties where rats have gnawed through electrical and IT wiring. Not only does this create loss in output and revenue, there is also a risk that this could cause fires. Rodent Bait Stations Rodent poison baits are a cost-effective control solution against rats and mice. Placed in professsional tamperproof rodent bait stations, they provide a practical, safe, ongoing control system that requires little servicing. RPC will strategically position rodent bait stations around your building to create a control system against rodents foraging around your property and to reduce incursions. Internal rodent bait stations are often used in conjunction with non-toxic traps and monitoring blocks. This allows our techniccian to effectively monitor rodent activity and to take prompt action as required. The following trapping methods are used to supplement rodent bait treatments or in situations where circumstances disqualify the use of rodent bait stations; where there is a risk of secondary poisoning or a high risk of rodents dying inside the building and creating bad odours, for example. Snaps Break Back Traps Professional break back rodent traps are used to control rodents that have intruded your building. They are an effective control tool for promptly redducing rodent infestations or quickly trapping and controlling an individual rodent. Glue Boards Like with the snap break back trap, RPC also uses professional glue boards. These are slightly more cost effective and, as a result, are often used in high numbers against rodent infestations. Live Rodent Cage Traps Live rodent cage traps can be used and can trap multiple rodents without the need to reset the trap

10 Termites Termites and other wood-boring insects can cause considerable damage to your property. It is estimmated that millions are spent every year in replacing damaged wooden fixtures and fixings caused by termites and other wood-boring insects. Most termite work we experienced is against subterrranean termites. This species of termite live in large underground colonies often containing over a million individuals that will feed on cellulose-containing items, such as wood and paper. Pre-Construction Termite Control Buildings can be pre-treated with a range of specialised chemicals designed to repel or kill that are applied before the building flooring and foundations are laid. Such treatments will normally provide protection for up to three years, after which time the chemical begins to biodegrade and becomes ineffective. Integrated Subterranean Termite Control In order to help protect your property and give you peace of mind, RPC can offer an Integrated Subtterranean Termite Control System. This service involves regular inspections by a qualified technician in order to locate any early signs of infestations. If located, specialised termite baits and termiticides can be used; these are designed to contaminate and control the entire termite colony over a period of time. Below-ground termite foraging termites around the building, and to reduce the risk of nay attack to you property. Drill and Injection Treatment This type of treatment is commonly used in the industry for when termites have gained access to a building. It involves drilling holes through the floor slabs in and around the property and in areas where termites are gaining access. This is then followed by applying a long-lasting chemical barrrier to the soil below in order to create a chemical barrier through which termites cannot pass and survive. Although this can be an effective solution, floors and water membrane will be damaged, sub utilities risk damage, and considerable amounts of toxic chemical are required. For this reason, RPC will normally recommend the use of its Integrated Subterranean Termite Control system in most cases. Fumigation Numerous species of insect pests can regularly infest bulk stored food stuff. Such pests are classified as SPI (stored produuct insects) and damage billions of dollars of food worldwide every year. When encountered within bulk stored food, gas fumigation can be carried out to eradicate the infestation. This is a process that involves creating an airtight environment in which the goods need to be fumigated and then introducing a toxic gas into the area under strict controlled and managed conditions. Fumigation can be carried out to shipping containers, goods cased under tarpaulin, silo s, ship hulls and sealed buildings. 10

11 Birds Birds such as Feral Pigeons can spread diseases through their faeces. Many public health insect and rodent pest infestations are also often associated with pigeons living in close proximity to man. The mess caused by pigeon infestations can lead to drainage systems becoming blocked, corroding of masonry and paintwork. The cleanup bills and risk of litigation due to pigeon infestations can be considerably high, so proactive steps should be taken to control pigeons and other birds on your building. Pigeon Trapping Programs This is a system often used by RPC to reduce and maintain minimal pigeon flock numbers on a property. Professional pigeon traps, using special bait and feeding regimes, are strategically placed and regularly serviced by the RPC technician. Trapped birds are humanly removed from the traps and are despatched offsite. Pigeon shooting Programs When persistent birds or the odd pigeon is encountered and prompt control is required, RPC offers professional shoots from a qualified marksman using a 22 air rifle under controlled and managed conditions. Pigeon Proofing Work Where birds and pigeons regularly frequent, RPC can offer a range of permanent physical control barriers that are fixed to the building in key areas. These barriers include a discrete bird repellent net that is professionally installed through a framework of stainless steel guide wires, and the use of a stainless steel spike repellent system that can be installed on ledges. Our experience and available resources in bird control allows us to select the right choice of soluttion for our clients, increasing efficiency and eliminating risk in wasted time and money on unsucccessful treatments. 11
