Georgia Pest Control Practice Test

At which step in the IPM process is the action plan put into effect?

1. Action Plan Monitoring

2. Action Plan Development

3. Action Plan Implementation

4. Action Plan Revision

The correct answer is: Action Plan Implementation

In the Integrated Pest Management (IPM) process, the action plan is put into effect during the implementation phase. This stage follows the development of the action plan, where strategies and measures to address pest problems have already been formulated. Implementation involves carrying out the specific actions that were determined during the development phase, such as applying pest control methods, monitoring results, and adjusting strategies as necessary. By actively implementing the action plan, pest control professionals can address the identified issues in a systematic way, ensuring that the selected methods are executed properly and monitored for effectiveness. This phase is critical, as it sets the wheels in motion for evaluation and adjustment in future steps of the IPM process.
