“…In the following discussion, action thresholds will be considered in the context of direct pest control tactics. Attributes and advantages of total tree health care to minimize pest problems in landscape maintenance have been detailed elsewhere (3,4,5,6). In crop production, researchers have studied plant growth, pest density, and crop yield to determine the level of infestation that justifies a direct control measure.…”

Integrated pest management (IPM) has evolved from theory to practice in the arboricultural industry. Enough technical information and experience exist to enable individual arborists to plan and implement biologically rational pest control strategies rather than using pesticidal cover sprays to reduce aesthetic impact of and damage from pests. IPM's most effective usage is in the context of plant health care. Perhaps a better framework for understanding the role of pest control in arboriculture is to define IPM as integrated PLANT management. After all, our goal as arborists is ecologically sound resource management. This paper introduces and discusses basic concepts of IPM and suggests establishment of action thresholds for key arthropod pests.
