  • MISD follows an adopted Integrated Pest Management Policy based on accepted tenets of Integrated pest management tactics compatible with human health and environmental protection. This includes the identification of pest problems, monitoring programs to determine when pests are present or severe, use of non-chemical strategies whenever practical, and preferential use of !east-toxic chemical controls when pesticides are needed. 

    State regulations followed by the district include requirements to notify students, staff, and parents of pending pesticide applications; keeping proper pesticide application records, including copies of labels and Material Safety Data Sheets {MSDS) for all pesticides used on school facilities; adherence to a 12-hour waiting Interval between pesticide application and student occupation of treated facilities; use of least hazardous pesticides according to the pesticide approval process for schools; and licensing of all staff who apply pesticides. Persons shall not store or apply pesticide on district property without an appropriate pesticide applicator's license

    Administrators, teachers, coaches, custodians, or any district employees who store and use unapproved pesticides are in violation of MISD policy and are subject to fines and penalties administered by the Texas Structural Pest Control Board, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Federal Insecticide/Fungicide and Rodenticide Act.

    For questions about MISD’s IPM practices, please contact Daniel Contreras at 972-882-5554.
