Pest Management is a small shop that falls under the 5th Civil Engineer Squadron at Minot Air Force Base, N.D. The shop works to contain and control the pests living on base, such as dakrats, mosquitos, skunks and many more. Pest Management also helps keep not only the base looking sharp, but the flight line as well by killing weeds that grow on and around it.
