Pest Management Plan

The district is required to follow Integrated Pest Management (IPM) procedures to control pests on school grounds. Although the district strives to use the safest and most effective methods to manage pests, including a variety of nonchemical control measures, pesticide use is sometimes necessary to maintain adequate pest control and ensure a safe, pest-free school environment. All pesticides used are registered for their intended use by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and are applied only by certified pesticide applicators. Except in an emergency, signs will be posted 48 hours before indoor application. All outdoor applications will be posted at the time of treatment, and signs will remain until it is safe to enter the area. Parents who have further questions or want to be notified prior to pesticide application inside their child’s campus may contact Eric Reimer district’s IPM coordinator at 281-689-3124 or by email at: ereimer@splendoraisd.org.
