What are your standard IPM protocols

Clean the tent and around it, between every round. Wipe every surface and corner with bleach or something else. Yesterday a friend gave a tip I'm going to try...https://purolyt.com/ check them out! Sounds good and my friend told me they'd work good. Interested about that virus blocking part...would it affect HLVD!? Anyone familiar with those products?
If I still get something I'll get predatory insectes for them.
 
1). Soap nuts , Monterey horticulture oil , captain jacks made into spray , weekly
2), old brown bottle of Lysol or bleach for scrubbing
3). Bronners sal suds or other bronners soaps
4) . EM 5 , caps og bio war packs / acts
5). BB+ from build a soil but cap has it now too
6). Common sense 😜
 
I am going to try one of Infinity's filter boxes. I have a 6" inline fan adding fresh air to my tent. It is also part of my air circulation under the canopy. I live on a dirt road in a dusty little town. Dust is everywhere here. I clean as much as I can inside the tent. I figured why not clean the air I am giving them. PM spores can be any and everywhere.
 
I typically just preventive maintenance with regular room cleanings after every harvest and once a month in veg room. IPM preventative protocol is every other Sunday, preventative dose of either Athena IPM (peppermint, lemongrass, and geranium oils) or Mammoth Cannatrol (thyme oil) rotating between them. Main culprits indoor are fungus gnats and PM. No matter how much I clean the house, I cannot seem to eradicate them for good. Occasionally something else will wander in off me and I’ll do treatment dose 3 times, once every 3rd day. Any ipm treatment is a drenching spray down of entire plants with an electrostatic sprayer including top of soil.

Also, diatomaceous earth is a great friend too.

SF-Nematodes do a good job for the fungus gnats. Have to be watered in.
