#1 Safeguard your Health
Pests, in the long run, can trigger various health concerns to the property occupants, including pets. Common household pests such as rodents and cockroaches carry salmonella and thereby spread infectious diseases. Some May even trigger asthma or other breathing issues. Unsupervised use of pesticides can also trigger health concerns, technicians are trained to apply pesticides safely.
#2 Save time and Effort
Who has time to keep up with all the ins and outs of life? You think you have it all together, then you go to relax and realize you have a pest problem! Most people don’t have time to even put forth the effort of DIY pest control or keeping it consistent. Pest companies have knowledgeable strategies to take care of your specific home and pest situation. Imagine the time and effort you’ll save by hiring a licensed professional to take care of the problem from the root.
#3 Save Cost
That probably sounds like the craziest one so far, right? If you think about it and really get to the pest types, severity, time, locations, and duration of infestations.. you may end up with lots of products, money spent, and still have bugs! The consistency of the right product will be the balance you need to take care of pests and keep it as low as possible on the wallet.
While we may be a little biased, choosing a small local company helps cut the overhead costs from big corporate companies.
#4 Eliminate concerns of recontamination
There are several aspects of pest infestation that require expert actions. You might eliminate pests ‘completely’ from your home, but if you fail to treat, inspect, and maintain the barriers.. you are leaving your home open to a new infestation or possibly a repeat. Pest control technicians will also inspect for cracks and crevices where the insects can find their way in.
#5 Prevent Property Damage
Some pests are hard to detect and unknowingly hide from us based on their lifestyle, but if left neglected and unnoticed.. you can have some serious damage to your structures. An average termite colony consumes up to 1/5 ounce of wood in one day, and can cause significant damage in as little as 2 years. Rodents can also be a huge cause of many household issues including wiring and nesting habits.
