Bridging Scientific Research and Residential Pest Management.

Research • Education • Standards • Publications • Field Validation

Welcome To
Pest Science Group.

Pest Science Group is a research initiative focused on how pests interact with homes. We connect scientific literature with residential field investigations to better understand pest activity and evaluate ways to manage it.

Our work brings pest biology, building science and professional experience together. Through research, publications and education, we're developing knowledge that homeowners and pest management professionals can use.

Our Approach.

We study pest activity where it happens: in homes, where buildings, environmental conditions and people's decisions interact.

About
  • Observe And Document

    Field investigations begin with observations of residential conditions and pest activity.

  • Consider The Whole Home

    We examine how pest biology, building systems and the surrounding environment work together.

  • Explain The Evidence

    We distinguish established science from field observations and working hypotheses, and explain the limitations of our findings.
