Gypsy Moth Treatments |
|
Private Landowner Program The landowner provides a map of the property to be surveyed. PFP digitizes property boundaries, completes gypsy moth egg mass surveys, and determines the need for treatment. If treatment is needed the treatment block is then established. The landowner signs copies of the deposit invoice, signature map, and adjacent landowner notification forms. Deposit is paid in late November and final invoice is paid in March. NO1 map files are created and given to aerial contractors for treatment. Contracts with private industry or county-based projects could also be included in this program. If contracted, a dollar amount for the mapping, surveying, and treatment block recommendations would be established. If treatment is necessary then the client would be eligible for a discounted per acre rate.State and Federal Programs PFP will bid on all State and Federal gm programs that are deemed to be within our best interest. |

Invasive Insect Survey Trapping PFP is prepared to establish
contracts with federal, state, and private entities for the placement,
monitoring, and removal of traps for invasive insect surveying and detection,
such as the gypsy moth Slow the Spread program and ongoing efforts to monitor
the inevitable spread of the Emerald Ash Borer.
