(Newswire.net — September 19, 2016) — Almost everyone loves nature. Provided that it stays of course, in nature and doesn’t make itself at home in your home. And aside from the nuisance factor of having insects and wild animals as housemates, some of these species can do real structural damage, and often can prove to be serious health risks, as well.
But as a homeowner, you may be reluctant to try more extreme methods of getting rid of these pests, because of safety concerns that you may have regarding older extermination methods. However, like so many other industries, the pest control field now concentrates on removal methods that protects both homeowners and the environment. So to clear out pest infestations, or better yet, to deal with them before they even become infestations, working with pest control professionals is a homeowner’s best bet. And what methods and techniques do “green” professionals use to make a client’s home pest free?
Inspection
It’s pretty obvious that those little buggers or critters have taken up residence, but any pest removal plan needs to begin with a thorough inspection by pest control professionals of the client’s property. This allows technicians to assess
how intruders have accessed a property, where they are living on it, how they may be travelling around it, and the presence of any “attractive nuisances” that may have drawn them onto the property in the first place. These pest inspectors will then share their findings with homeowners, and make their recommendations, which will include:
-
pest removal options
-
cost of methods
-
time involved in removal methods
If any removal methods will require homeowners to make temporary changes to their normal routines or do advance preparatory work for technicians, inspectors will address these needs at the time of the inspection. And in these gentler, greener, pest control times, what are some methods that inspectors may recommend?
Bait Gels
While there’s much to admire about cockroaches, unless you’re another cockroach, you don’t want to share your living space with them. One of the reasons that this pest can be so difficult to get rid of, especially for DIYers, is this insect’s resilience and finicky eating habits. Gel baits have proven to be successful in eradicating cockroaches, but because of these baits’ limited life spans, and the particular eating habits of cockroaches, this method is best employed by professional pest control experts. These specialists know both the best delivery method for this type of pest control, including where in homes such traps should be applied, and the best application methods, such as gel guns.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
As with everything else in life, the concept behind IPM is that problems are best handled if they are identified and controlled before things get out of hand. An IPM program helps homeowners to avoid serious property infestations and recurrences of pest populations. Generally, with IPM, only one type of pest is targeted for removal, and with this method, the pest is removed without impacting on other environments. The IPM approach is much greener than past pest-control methods, and has shown equally successful results within the home, backyards, and agricultural properties. IPM often uses a combination of techniques, including natural methods, trapping, and monitoring.
Greener Materials
One of the drawbacks to DIY pest control is that products available for non-professional use still contain environmentally damaging chemicals, and don’t permanently remove pests. The materials used by professional pest control technicians like UltraPro Pest Protection include natural predators and competitors, and methods including clearing, removal, and exclusion, to insure that pest problems are gone without creating new ones.
