The publication addresses self-help pest control, Integrated Pest Management, pest treatment services, wild animal removal, and pesticide purchases. It requires sanitation, pest-control efforts, service limits, and accountability for authorized pesticides.
Applies to: This instruction applies to all facility managers and occupants of Real Property facilities to include the 932d Airlift Wing (AFRES) and the 126th Air Refueling Wing (ANG).
Facility managers and occupants eligible for self-help will control the following pests when they occur in their quarters or facilities: cockroaches, crickets, earwig firebrats, flies, silverfish, sow bugs (pill bugs), mice, miscellaneous flying and crawling insects that do not destroy Air Force property. (paragraph 2)
All of these pests can be prevented or controlled through Integrated Pest Management (IPM) measures, such as good housekeeping/sanitation, proper food storage, pest exclusion, and minimal use of self-help insecticides or supplies. (paragraph 2)
When facilities with pest infestations do not respond to properly applied self-help or units with structural deficiencies that make self-help control methods difficult, IPM personnel may take measures after 30 days. (paragraph 2)
TLF quarters and dormitories will not be treated if dirty or unsanitary. (paragraph 2)
Pest management personnel will not treat quarters, dormitories or facilities if it is evident occupants or facility managers have not attempted to control pests through a self-help program. (paragraph 2)
