Dedicated Website Address for your District/School

Is there a cost to the parents/guardians?
No.
How do you know which pesticides I use?
Once you purchase an account, there will be some basic set-up work to do. The easiest way to let us know which pesticides you use is to provide us with a copy of your annual notification letter. From there we can upload your list or you can always choose to enter the pesticides you want.
Is it difficult to send an IPM notification?
No. There are 6 fields to complete – 3 are drop down fields and 3 are text entry fields. It takes about 10 seconds to complete the form. After that, you just click send…and your done.
Recordkeeping – How long does it keep the integrate pest management records.
You are required to keep records for 4 years. Our system maintains the records for 4 years. If you would like to keep them longer, we can do that too. In addition, we have built in fail-safe checks and balances to ensure that accidental deletions do not occur.
What’s with the front/home page of the website?
The front or home page of the site provides an snapshot interface for all the notifications that your district sends. This allows parents to quickly check which sites and which pesticides have been applied. It also serves as a public testament that your district made a notification and when it did so.
Email Messages – How many emails can I send?
You can send unlimited emails or more accurately, post unlimited notices. In addition, our service complies with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, so you never have to worry about spam issues.
Subscribers – How many parents/guardians can sign up?
There is no limit.
What does the actual notification messages look like?
There are 2 standard email messages (one for emergencies and one for 72 hour notifications) contained in the program, but you can customize as many as you like. The standard 72 hour notification looks like this:
