Pesticide Products
To meet the requirements of the Healthy Schools Act of 2000, the Simi Valley Unified School District has adopted an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program. IPM is a system of controlling pests by combining biological, cultural, mechanical, and physical control methods in a way that eliminates or minimizes the use of chemicals, while protecting environmental and economic health. Use of these products may take place after methods of IPM have been considered and implemented. Pesticide treatments that are not exempt by the Healthy School Act will take place after proper notification and posting warning signs. When the use of a pesticide on this list is required, every effort will be made to apply the product when students are not present. Many of the products on this list are derived from plants and inorganic materials such as orange oil, tree oils, and borate salts. The majority of applications will be placed in cracks and crevices and other areas that are out of reach of students.
Applicators shall receive annual training according to the specification of each Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-approved label. For additional information on pest management products, you may access the California Department of Pesticide Regulation website at www.cdpr.ca.gov.
In the event that a product is required to be used that is not on the approved list, you will be notified 72 hours in advance. (Exception: Emergency circumstances that warrant an immediate response.)
If you believe your child’s health and/or behavior could be influenced by exposure to pesticide products and you would like to be notified each time a pesticide application takes place at your child’s school, please notify the district IPM coordinator, in writing, at Simi Valley Unified School District, Maintenance and Operations, 101 W. Cochran Street, Simi Valley, CA 93065. (EC 17612, 48980.3)
