Interior Landscape Pest Management

---

In Kansas, subcategory 3C is titled, Interior Landscape Pest Management, and is defined as follows: “This subcategory shall include any commercial application of a pesticide to control pests in the production and
maintenance of houseplants and other indoor ornamental plants maintained or located within structures occupied by humans, including houses, apartments, offices, shopping malls, and other places of business and dwellings.”Plants are used in interiorscapes primarily for aesthetic purposes.

But growing indoors does not exempt plants from attack by a wide array of insect, mite, disease, weed, and nematode pests. Pest management associated with interiorscapes in public areas is a highly sensitive issue. Because of public access to these plants, pest management must be safe to humans and many different plant types. Pesticide selection and application method are important criteria to consider.

A complicating factor in interiorscape pest management is that plants may have originated from greenhouses where intensive pesticide use may have led to pesticide resistance. Consequently, some ornamental plants may be
infested with pesticide-resistant pests when incorporated into malls, banks, and restaurants. Pest management may be more labor intensive because pesticide selection is limited to those labeled for interiorscape use.
