INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT

Niagara Parks takes great pride in our commitment to sustainable garden management through our integrated pest management approach. We prioritize environmentally friendly pest control practices to minimize our ecological footprint. By focusing on planting disease-resistant species and using mechanical methods to control weeds, we reduce the need for chemical interventions.

When biopesticides are necessary, we carefully monitor our gardens for severe pest threats and use these natural solutions with precision. To keep our visitors informed, we post public notices 24 hours before and 48 hours after any biopesticide application.

Discover the ever-changing beauty of the Botanical Gardens every month throughout the year, from the vibrant tulips and daffodils of spring to the rich, colourful peonies and roses of summer.
