Why Hire a Pest Control Professional?

Your Home—The Perfect Habitat for Unwelcome Pests

All insects have three basic and instinctive needs...

1. They need food and water.
2. They need shelter.
3. They need to reproduce.

As hard as it may be to acknowledge, your home fills these needs in abundance. This makes your home is a natural attraction for a wide variety of unwelcome house pests. If one pest can get in, so can others. Where one pest resides, so do others. No matter how hard we try, pests are persistent and will find a way to fulfill these three needs.

While cleanliness and good home maintenance can help prevent a wide array of pest problems, even the cleanest and best maintained homes are no match for every pest. Having a well-trained, pest control professional regularly treat your home provides an additional and essential barrier against unwelcome house pests. We evict unwelcome house pests who have already taken up residence in your home and prevent other pests from gaining access to your home.

We “encourage” pests to fill their needs elsewhere, as each of these needs drive their greatest need—survival. They will not live where they cannot survive.

You are Protecting One of Your Biggest Investments

The purchase of a house is one of the biggest financial investments a person will make. Just as we might be concerned about damage to our home from fire, water or weather, we need to be concerned about the impact of unwelcome pests in our home. The United States Environmental Protection Agency documents that termites can cause billions of dollars of structural damage every year (https://www.epa.gov/safepestcontrol/termites-how-identify-and-control-them).

Cockroaches may not cause structural damage to your home, but they will lower your home’s value. Besides the stigma associated with cockroaches in your home, they create a significant health issue. Who wants to move into and live in a home where ants, spiders, beetles or centipedes have already taken up residence? Pests will impact your ability to sell your home at a premium value, potentially costing you significantly more money over time than hiring a pest control professional.

Our pest control service is designed to help insure the value of one of your biggest investments.

Your Family’s Health is at Stake

Pest Control is an integral part of the maintenance of your home, not to mention critical to the health of your family. Not only do most common house pests destroy houses, they bring with them a plethora of health issues that can negatively impact your family.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, those cute little house mice or those not as cute rats carry a variety of devastating diseases that can be directly transmitted to your family (https://www.cdc.gov/rodents/diseases/direct.html). Recent studies have shown that cockroaches not only transport a wide variety of pathogens on their bodies (e.g., Salmonella and E. coli, etc.), they are also triggers for asthma and other allergic reactions, especially in children (https://www.pestworld.org/news-hub/pest-health-hub/the-truth-about-cockroaches-and-health/).

Not all pest control companies are created equal. Our treatment programs are designed with your family’s health as a top priority. The proper application of all chemicals used to control unwelcome house pests is critical. Many companies tend to spray excess chemical on baseboards, carpets and floors, even leaving puddles to dry in place. This can be as unhealthy as the pests themselves. Our programs avoid this kind of treatment, striving to strike at pests where they harbor and live, rather than merely striking where they might or might not travel. Proper application of pest control chemicals makes for a safer and healthier home.
