Invasion of noxious weeds is the most serious threat to wild lands in
Montana and much of the western United States. Controlling noxious
weeds is an important step in helping to conserve native plant
populations, improve range condition and productivity, and provide high
quality habitat for the wide range of abundant wildlife occurring
in Montana. Integrated pest management (IPM) is a term describing the
use of different methods or tools to successfully control or prevent
pests (in this case noxious weeds) from reaching levels that cause
unacceptable economic or aesthetic damage to the environment. Some of
these tools are the use of herbicides, biological controls such as
insects or pathogens, and cultural controls such as mowing or rotational
grazing. These tools can be used in combination or solely to reach
management objectives. No property is the same and it is important to
develop a management plan tailored to each property owners specific
needs. Whether you want to manage for improved range condition for
livestock, improve habitat quality for wildlife, or just want to remove
unsightly weeds, Monture Creek Land Management can develop a management
strategy to attain your management goals. Monture Creek Land Management
has an on staff commercial pesticide applicator licensed in the state
of Montana with experience applying herbicides in a safe,
environmentally friendly manner. Pickup, ATV, and backpack spraying is

infestations regardless of the terrain or location
