PESP Partnership

Mosquito Joe® was recently admitted into the Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program (PESP) established by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Through this partnership, our goal is to provide low-risk pest management so that the outdoors is fun again—without the hassle of mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas—and with the peace of mind that Mosquito Joe is taking every precaution necessary when handling, applying, and disposing of our products.

Program Information

Created by the Office of Pesticide Programs’ Environmental Stewardship Branch (ESB) in 1994, the PESP program seeks to increase education about Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and reduce the health and environmental risks associated with using pesticides in areas where people live, work, play, and farm.

Integrated Pest Management Approach

According to the EPA, an Integrated Pest Management approach is “An effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest management that relies on a combination of common-sense practices. IPM programs use current, comprehensive information on the life cycle of pests and their interaction with the environment. This information, in combination with available pest control methods, is used to manage pest damage by the most economical means and with the least possible hazard to people, property, and the environment.”

What This Means For You

Our partnership with PESP demonstrates our commitment to providing low-risk outdoor pest control. As one of a small number of member organizations, we are committed to educating our customers about integrated pest management.
