Pest Management

Managing Pests in Mississauga

The City of Mississauga is recognized as a leader in Plant Health Care (PHC) and has utilized Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices since 1990. Plant Health Care practices try to minimize pest problems by ensuring healthy plant life.

IPM practices involve the use of various control measures to reduce weed and pest populations in trees and turfed areas. The City manages weed and pest populations through a variety of physical, biological and cultural practices. Pesticides are only used when there are no other effective alternatives. The City has also adopted a practice that neighbourhood and general park areas not be sprayed with pesticides.

For individual IPM practices for specific species, please see the links on the right hand side of the page.
