As California children return from winter break, theres greater emphasis on safer pest control methods at the places where they learn and play.
The California Healthy Schools Act (HSA) law gives parents the right to know what pesticides are being applied at public K-12 schools and licensed child care centers. New changes to the HSA expand the scope of information for parents, and, aim to minimize pesticide use by educating school staff on the least-toxic ways to control pests.
Pesticides may be used on school campuses to get rid of cafeteria cockroaches, gophers on the gridiron and weeds and more on landscapes and playing fields.
Less pesticide use means students and staff have a reduced risk of possible exposure to pesticides, said Senior Environmental Scientist Laurie Brajkovich, of the Department of Pesticide Regulations School Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program. Integrated pest management is a successful method that reduces the use of chemical pesticides while tackling pests through pest prevention, sanitation, and monitoring.
Expansion of the HSA is required by SB 1405, written by Sen. Mark DeSaulnier (D-Concord) and signed last year by Gov. Jerry Brown. The changes go into effect starting in January and affect 10,000 schools and more than 14,500 child care centers in California.
Schools and child care centers applying pesticides are now required to establish an IPM plan, and report pesticide use annually to the California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR). DPR will soon be posting an IPM plan template to its Web site http://www.cdpr.ca.gov/ to make this transition easier.
Having an IPM plan at schools and child care centers allows for parents to view pest management strategies. These plans will be posted online, or, sent out to parents or guardians and staff with the annual notice of which pesticides are expected to be used at the site in the coming year.
Previously, the law only required pest management companies that apply pesticides at schools and child care centers to report use to DPR. Now, under the amended law, anyone who applies pesticides including school district and child care staff will need to report the pesticides that were used, the time of application, location and amount of the product.
Starting July 1, 2016, anyone who applies any pesticide at a school or child care center will need to complete a DPR-approved training first. This includes school and child care staff, and hired pesticide applicators applying pesticides at those sites.
IPM not only provides an opportunity to implement non-chemical control methods, it can also save time and money. Since prevention is key to a successful IPM program, staff members dont have to buy as many pesticides or be trained on how to use them if they are cleaning properly and monitoring for pests. DPR has held workshops since 2002 to educate school staff about IPM techniques and practices. In 2014, DPR trained 168 people, representing 87 California school districts.
Some of Singapore's rats may be changing their behaviour to adapt and live more easily.
The Norway or sewer rat, for example, traditionally burrows into the ground to make its home, or lives in sewers.
However, as more buildings have gone up across the island over the past few years, pest busters have noticed increasing numbers of them simply living in gaps in or between building slabs and other structural defects.
To better understand how the rats' behaviours have changed, the National Environment Agency (NEA) intends to begin a research project into the matter, The Straits Times understands.
Details of the project are still being worked out, but it is expected to involve finding out the rat population, how they behave, how that behaviour has changed and how the rodents survive in urban areas.
The study will be timely as companies that provide rodent control services said that the rat situation in Singapore seems to be worsening.
Four of them told The Straits Times that they have received up to 60 per cent more inquiries related to rats in the past year.
Star Pest Control, which dealt with the Bukit Batok infestation that made headlines last month, handles nearly 60 cases a month now, an increase of about 40 per cent from 2013.

Bosque Brewing Company has skipped a soft and grand opening and jumped straight to opening the doors of its newest taproom to the public today.
Bosques director of operations Gabe Jensen said the opening of its Public House, located where Nob Hill and the University of New Mexico areas meet, has been a long time coming.
The new Public House has 12 taps and will offer rotating special releases as well as Bosques staples: Bosque Lager, Pale Ryder, Cumulus Wheat IPA, Brewers Boot Amber Ale, Scotia Scotch Ale and Driftwood Oatmeal Stout, according to Jensen.
The 3,000 square-foot space includes an impressive patio area perfect for people watching and enjoying other aesthetically pleasing views.
The patio wraps around the northeast corner of the building, Jensen said during a recent phone interview. Im sitting here looking at the mountains and UNM. There is also a lot of people-watching to do.
The Public House will offer a food menu similar to its mothership location in Albuquerques Northeast Heights, including salads, soups, sandwiches and other fare to curb appetites. The new location has not nailed down its operation hours yet, but will open everyday at 11 a.m., according to Jensen.
The addition of the new location now offers Bosque customers the best of both worlds, according to Jensen. He explained that the mothership location at 8900 San Mateo NE near Alameda, where its beer is brewed, offers a cool, tucked-away atmosphere away from the citys hustle and bustle. He said the Public House is set in the heart of where things are happening in Albuquerque and is walking distance from other breweries and bars in the Nob Hill and UNM areas.
We love being part of the community, Jensen said.

RAIDERS smashed their way through glass doors to burgle homes.
Crooks forced their way through French windows at the back of a property in Badgers Way, Benfleet, on New Years Eve.
They trashed the house before fleeing with jewellery and a black Michael Kors handbag.
The raid was similar to another burglary in Church Road, Benfleet, on New Years Day.
The back patio door was smashed to gain entry and burglars again trashed the house while searching for items. Police do not yet know the extent of what was taken.
Meanwhile in Hall Farm Road, Benfleet, front and rear doors were damaged as raiders tried to gain entry to a property on Saturday.
Again the house was ransacked but a full list of items stolen is not yet known.
Police are appealing for witnesses.
Anyone with information can call Southend CID on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.

Waltham Lido Pool is reopening on Saturday 17 January, with a Welcome Back Waltham pool party on Sunday 18 January.
The Christchurch City Council facility would attract more than 17,000 people each summer before its closure due to earthquake damage. Facilities include a shallow water lido leisure area for young children, a toddlers' pool, a lane pool for lap swimming, a hydro-slide and a landscaped, grassed BBQ space.
David Adamson, the Councils Director Council Facilities and Infrastructure Rebuild, says the pools reopening is an exciting event that the community has been waiting a long time for.
"Wed scheduled a soft opening for Monday 12 January, but some minor hiccups have meant weve moved it to Saturday 17. Needless to say, people in the area know what a great facility this is, and for them Sundays pool party has been a long time coming. Weve had more than 70 people down there this week working hard to have things ready in time for it. The pool looks tremendous and it is credit to the contractors, consultants, staff and subcontractors who have worked tirelessly right through the Christmas break.
"As well as fixing and strengthening the pool, weve taken the opportunity to revamp things a bit, and make effective use of recycled materials," Mr Adamson says.
"In addition to the upgrades - new signage, landscaping, roofing, re-sizing the plant room, fencing, painting, shade sails and other small improvements - weve included the old reception desk from the Lyttelton service centre as well as wall brackets from QEII Park.
"The resulting refurbished pool will be something the community and Council can be proud of."
Sponsors MORE FM and Streets will be at the party with giveaways, competitions and prizes to keep the kids entertained. Details of all the summer pool parties will be broadcast on MORE FM (92.1FM).
