1. Fumigation Service:

Fumigation is an advanced control technique to control stored product insect infestation in stored commodities. Fumigation is an act of introducing a toxic gas in an enclosed space in such a manner that it disperses quickly and kill all stages egg, larva, pupa and adult of target insects.

2. Stored Products Monitoring Service:

Stored product insects can contaminate stored foods; cause increases in temperature, moisture, fatty acids, uric acids, and molds; and decrease weight, all of which can result in economic loss, regulatory penalties, customer rejection, and adverse consumer reaction. But the insects are often difficult to detect until populations build because of their small size and ability to live, feed, and breed within the product itself or in small cracks and crevices. 

So, to over come these problems Innovative Pest Management offers Stored product insect monitoring service in which they use pheromone-based monitoring traps to attract target insect species. These Pheromone traps have been used for monitoring stored-product pests in a variety of stored food commodities and based on catch count on traps we can set-up proper control measures for particular stored product insect pest.
