Introduction to IPM

Run your Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program in Conserv Cloud together with your environmental data.

Dashboard

To access the IMP dashboard, sign in to Conserv Cloud and select Pests from the left navigation menu.

Pest Monitor

The Pest Monitor tab lets you organize your pest monitor locations similarly to how you organize your data loggers.

Observe

After you set up your pest monitors in their designated locations, you can take pictures of the pests that you caught and add those observations to Conserv Cloud.

Identify

This is where you identify the pests from your photos and observations. You can classify and track the types of pests captured, allowing for better management and action planning.

Analyze

The analyze tab displays the graphs that you need to make reports. You can also download tables of your IPM data.

Manage List

The Manage List tab lets you customize which pests appear as options when you identify what you catch in your monitors. The general list is drawn from the Museumpests.net database.

Pest Database

This database provides an embedded Airtable version of the Museumpests.net database. Use it to help you become familiar with pests and read more information on them so you can figure out what they eat and what they need to survive.
