The pest control industry is a multi-million dollar earner every year. Just because an industry earns this much revenue every year, does not necessarily mean that it is effective. All it takes is one walk through a department or hardware store to see hundreds of baits and traps, claiming to get rid of pests - but most of these can’t get the job done!
Tragic Traps & Basic Baits
No pest wants to give up their territory once they’ve “earned” it. This means stubborn infestations. The longer that pests are allowed to skulk around your home or business, the worse these infestations become. Sneaky pests like cockroaches, ants and mice are keen to hang out in damp areas where there is a consistent food source. From kitchens to bathrooms, there is no amount of traps that can tackle an infestation.
More than being ineffective, basic traps, baits and poisons are dangerous, unsanitary and, let’s face it - messy. Poisons are inhumane to use and mean giving up control of what happens to the pest following ingestion. It is not uncommon for rodents to take a bite out of poison and expire behind a wall or underneath flooring. These events come along with horrible smells and expensive removal costs in having to cut drywall or pull up flooring.
Instead of struggling with improper methods, calling a professional can help to cut down on not only the length of your infestation but the amount of money that you spend trying to get rid of pests. Do-it-yourself treatment methods might seem more economical but that is only if they work. Having to purchase more and more traps will add up quickly.
