Title

  • Day Care Centers and Schools Could Face Fines If Indoor Pest Forms Are Not Filed

Description

  • To protect children in day care centers and schools from pests such as cockroaches, spiders and rodents, as well as from unnecessary applications of pesticides, the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) is reminding schools and day care centers they could be fined if they do not comply with the states Integrated Pest Management (IPM) regulations. State law requires public schools and licensed day care centers to file an IPM form with the Department to document how they plan to implement IPM. IPM uses a variety of non-chemical methods as well as pesticides, when needed, to reduce pest infestations and to minimize childrens exposure to pesticides.
