Ground squirrels have been the bane of early pioneers and homesteaders since the opening and settling of the West.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a strategy to attain sustainable, long-term pest control. IPM uses all viable options (chemical and non-chemical) to keep pest damage below economic levels while reducing negative impacts on the environment.

The Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus), also known as the brown, common or sewer rat, is the most common species of rat found on the Canadian Prairies.
