Importance and benefits of residential pest control 

The idea of living with crawlies and critters should send shivers down your spine. If it doesn’t, maybe the health implication will. Rodents, spiders, termites, cockroaches, etc. Can spread several illnesses. For example, cockroaches carry more than 33 different types of bacteria – just cockroaches, and flea bites can also spread typhoid.

Whichever way you choose to look at it, having pests in your home is not safe for anyone. More so, if you have children and elderlies in the house. When you understand the risks pests pose, you will properly address the problem.

Besides the danger to health, some pests like termites will do everything they can to destroy your property and structures. Do you know that termites cost homeowners an average of $10,000 per annum? Do you also know that the home insurance scheme does not cover damages caused by termites? Regardless, 1 in 3 homes will fall to termite attack and destruction over their lifespan. So, who bears the cost?

Residential pest control addresses pest problems to either manage, control, or eliminate them. Our pest control solution uses a modern process with environmentally safe methods to eliminate pests. We don’t just eradicate pests, but we provide control programs that educate homeowners on how to keep their homes pest-free in the future.
