Insect and Pest Control Clause Samples
The Insect and Pest Control clause outlines the responsibilities for managing and preventing infestations of insects or pests within a property or premises. Typically, this clause specifies whether the landlord or tenant is responsible for regular pest inspections, treatments, and any necessary remediation if an infestation occurs. For example, it may require the landlord to arrange for annual pest control services, or obligate the tenant to promptly report any signs of pests. The core function of this clause is to ensure a safe and habitable environment by clearly assigning duties related to pest management, thereby preventing disputes and maintaining property standards.
Insect and Pest Control. Monitor plant materials for any insect or pest problems. Spray or dust with appropriate insecticides and fungicides as necessary to maintain plants in a healthy and vigorous condition.
Insect and Pest Control. The sterile insect technique (SIT), when part of an area-wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM) approach, can be used for insect suppression, containment, and/or eradication. AW-IPM can be used to establish pest free areas and areas of low pest prevalence, thereby providing better options to address International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) standards and technical barriers to trade and other phytosanitary issues covered by the World Trade Organization (WTO). AFRA shall promote technical cooperation in the use of the IAEA supported technologies for the control of insects and pests. These techniques include: o The development and transfer of a genetic sexing technology for the Mediterranean fruit fly (now used in South Africa and Tunisia and in preparation for use in Morocco), storage and long distance shipment protocols, and molecular marking technologies, using PCR (polymerase chain reaction) primers specific for genomic or mitochondrial DNA; o The development and transfer, as part of tsetse SIT, of the pupal sexing systems using near- infra red spectroscopy; semi automated membrane-feeding and holding systems; non- destructive PCR method for detection of salivary gland hypertrophy virus (SGHV) and alternatives for the processing of blood for tsetse flies; o The development of the SIT package for the mosquito Anopheles arabiensis, a vector of malaria; o Technologies supportive to and essential for efficient use of the SIT against the tsetse and trypanosomosis problem and the application of the area-wide concept of integrated pest management (AW-IPM).
