Why You Should Hire A Professional When It Comes To Pests

Let’s admit it, at some point all of us will encounter a pest problem of some kind. Whether it be ants, mice, bees or something else, we will need to get these pests out of our homes. Some may want to take the do-it-yourself approach to pest control. While this is an option, there are some reasons why you should consider hiring a professional. Take a look at the information below before you decide to undertake this type of ‘do-it-yourself’ project.

A professional will identify the pest and know what treatment to use to best rid your home of the problem. When you try and treat the problem yourself, purchasing the correct product can be confusing. More confusing can be how and where to apply it. This can become costly and a major inconvenience.

Having a professionally licensed technician service your home can bring piece of mind. They are trained in the correct use of pesticides. This is important for everyone but especially for those that have children and pets.

Also, many professional services will come with some type of guarantee. If the problem is not resolved they will work to correct it.

Having a pest problem is never a pleasant situation. Using a professional can mean the difference between a minor inconvenience and an ongoing problem.

3 Reasons Why You Should NOT Do Your Own Pest Control

3 Reasons Why You Should NOT Do Your Own Pest Control

Spring is here and with it come the home invaders. Money is a concern for many of us and it may seem like doing your own pest control is a good idea. While there are times when this might  work it isn’t always the best idea. Professional pest control companies have technicians that are specially trained and licensed in the correct application of the chemicals used. Also, most companies will offer some type of guarantee on their work. Here are  three reasons you shouldn’t try and handle your own pest control.

EFFECTIVENESS – Professional technicians are trained not only in the correct use of pesticides but also in pest identification. If you are unsure what type of pest you are trying to get rid of you may use the wrong product or even the wrong technique. This can lead to more time and money being spent to combat an issue that could have been taken care of in one treatment.

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES – Pest control products are closely regulated to make sure local environments are not destroyed. Incorrect mixing of products or the use of multiple products in one location can cause damage to plants and wildlife. They may even prove harmful to you or your family if not used properly. Professional pest control companies train their technicians in the proper use of all products. Rapid Pest Solutions uses Integrated Pest Management, or IPM. This means that we solve pest problems while minimizing risk to people and the environment.

PERSONAL SAFETY – Even the pest control products that you buy at the hardware or home improvement stores contain chemicals that can be harmful to you and your family if not fully understood. Don’t use guess work when it comes to your well being and that of your family. Contact a professional.
