However, integrated pest management should not be confused with the terms pest management or insect pest management. These terms refer to any practice or combination of practices designed to manipulate pest or potential pest populations and to diminish pest injury or render pests harmless. Pest management may involve simple manipulations such as spraying a rose bush with a pesticide or emptying water-filled tin cans to prevent mosquito breeding, or it may be accomplished through a complicated integrated pest management system. 4, record 1, English, - pest%20management

The objective of insect pest management is to manage insect populations to reduce pest status to a tolerable level. Reducing the insect pest status means that the presence of insect pests should be expected but at levels that will not cause economic damage. 2, record 2, English, - insect%20pest%20management

Other possibilities include reducing the effort made to maintain a consistently groomed appearance, using more resistant or indigenous species that require less maintenance and reducing pesticide use. Organizations should implement an integrated pest management plan to achieve a semi-natural balance. This involves introducing complementary species of plants that support ’co-operative survival, or insect or animal species that prey on, or otherwise reduce the effects of, destructive pests. 1, record 3, English, - co%2Doperative%20survival

On pourrait également ne plus s'efforcer autant de maintenir systématiquement une apparence soignée aux lieux ou utiliser des espèces plus résistantes et des espèces indigènes qui exigent moins d'entretien ou, encore, employer moins de pesticides. On doit mettre en œuvre un plan de lutte intégré afin de parvenir à un état d'équilibre semi-naturel. Ce plan ferait appel à l'introduction d'espèces végétales complémentaires favorisant la survie d'autres espèces ou à l'introduction d'insectes ou d'animaux qui se nourrissent de nuisibles ou qui, par d'autres moyens, en atténuent les effets. 1, record 3, French, - esp%C3%A8ces%20favorisant%20la%20survie%20d%27autres%20esp%C3%A8ces
