Regular Field Checks
Harbor Wildlife Control checks fields under contract regularly during the growing season. During certain times of the year, agronomists may visit a field more frequently, should situations arise that require close monitoring. After each field check, clients are given a detailed field report detailing current field and crop conditions.

Detailed Field Reports
After each regular field check, our agronomists complete a detailed field report for the client. Each report contains weed, insect and disease scouting results, maps highlighting field conditions, irrigation scheduling information and ag-chemical recommendations.

Insect Scouting
Our agronomists are trained to scout for beneficial and harmful insects that may be present. When infestations reach threatening levels, our staff recommends the best products and rates for control.

Disease Scouting
Harbor Wildlife Control agronomists are always on the lookout for disease problems that may threaten a client's crop. When conditions require treatment, our staff recommends the best products and rates for control.

Ag-Chemical Recommendations
When weed, insect or disease problems are found in a client's field, the Harbor Wildlife Control staff recommends the best products and rates for control and when and where the products should be applied. We sell no products, so clients can be assured they are getting unbiased recommendations.

Soil Sampling 
Our professional agronomists are trained in the latest soil sampling techniques. Consistent soil sampling is the key to getting accurate soil test results. Harbor Wildlife Control takes soil samples for clients under contract and provides custom soil sampling services for non-contract clients.

What is IPM?
"Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a sustainable approach to managing pests (insect, disease, & weed) by combining biological, cultural, physical and chemical tools in a way that minimizes economic, health and environmental risks."
