Abstract

Most conservators are now familiar with integrated pest management (IPM) strategies, thanks to previous conferences, publications and workshops. However, actually making IPM work can still be difficult. As Tom Strang from the Canadian Conservation Institute (CCI) pointed out at a previous IPM conference(1996), change is hard. People are busy, and it is difficult to generate the momentum to get programs started, and to structure them so that they will be maintained. This paper will present an IPM case study looking at the management of a multi-institution pest management program in the Adelaide region of South Australia. The paper does not contain descriptions of new technology or treatment methods, but presents some ideas about how a large-scale IPM program can be structured to work successfully.
