Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an environmentally sensitive and sustainable approach to pest control that combines different management strategies and practices to grow healthy crops while minimizing the use of harmful chemicals. It focuses on understanding the life cycle of pests, their interaction with the environment, and the most effective methods to control them with the least possible risk to human health, beneficial organisms, and the ecosystem. In the context of hygiene, sanitation, and waste management, IPM plays a significant role because poor sanitation and improper waste disposal often create breeding grounds for pests such as rodents, flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, and other disease-carrying organisms. IPM is based on a combination of biological, cultural, mechanical, and chemical methods to control pests in an integrated and systematic manner. Unlike traditional pest control methods that rely heavily on chemical pesticides, IPM emphasizes prevention, monitoring, and controlled intervention. The goal of IPM is not necessarily to eliminate pests completely but to keep their populations at manageable levels where they do not cause significant harm to human health, agriculture, or the environment. One of the primary components of IPM is prevention. Preventive measures include maintaining proper sanitation, eliminating pest habitats, managing waste effectively, and improving environmental conditions that discourage pest growth. For example, proper disposal of organic waste reduces the availability of food for pests such as rats and flies. Maintaining clean surroundings, covering food items, sealing cracks in buildings, and removing stagnant water sources help prevent pests from breeding and spreading. In both rural and urban environments, sanitation practices are essential in reducing pest infestations. Monitoring and identification are also key elements of Integrated Pest Management. Regular inspection and surveillance help in identifying the type of pest and assessing its population level. Accurate identification
