The goal of a turfgrass IPM program is to keep pest populations or damage at a tolerable level. This is called the pest response threshold level. It is determined by the number of pests or the amount of pest damage that can be sustained before an unacceptable reduction in turf quality occurs.
This course is approved by the Washington State Department of Agriculture for Pesticide and SPI License Recertification credits.
