Insect Control. All turf/grass will be monitored during maintenance program to ensure early detection of existing or anticipated problems. Contractors must focus on maintaining a healthy turf/grass. If insects are suspected of causing a problem with the plants, the contractor will contact the COR and suggest a method of pest management to maintain a healthy turf.
Insect Control. The Contractor shall use non-pesticide methods of control wherever possible, such as: • Portable vacuums rather than pesticide sprays for initial clean-outs of cockroach infestations, for swarming insects, and for control of spiders in webs • Trapping devices rather than pesticide sprays for indoor fly control • Other methods that preclude chemical pesticide usage As a general rule, the contractor should apply insecticides as “Crack and Crevice” treatment only (using an appropriate application tool or nozzle). For the resulting contract, such treatment is defined as treatment in which a formulated insecticide cannot be contacted or seen by a bystander during or after the application. • Application of insecticides to exposed surfaces or as space sprays including fogs and, mists applications should be restricted to unique situations where no alternatives exist. • The contractor must coordinate space spray treatments with the Office of Capitol Facilities (OCF) prior to application to ensure that no occupants are present or potentially harmed. • Bait formulations should be used for cockroach and ant control whenever appropriate. The contractor is encouraged to use new technology that would result in improved effectiveness over existing methods. • Sticky traps should be used to guide and evaluate indoor insect control effort.
Insect Control. Appropriate chemicals applied to all trees as recommended by sub-consultant HSI (Xxxxxx XxXxxxxxx) in the spring prior to spring flight to protect evergreens. Spraying shall occur again during the summer and once in the fall of all trees (evergreen and deciduous) and shrubs with timing as determined by HSI. The cost of this service will be proposed separate from the based contract.
