You see, over the course of time we have one thing figured out very well. The key to controlling a pest population and providing the excellent service that we do is through prevention first and then elimination. The concept is really not that hard to understand. If there are no pests entering your home, the need to control a proper outbreak of pests in your home will be greatly reduced or even eliminated. Prevention first and then elimination go a very long way in providing the most environmentally friendly pest control solutions.

Pest Prevention

As part of the environmentally friendly pest control solution, pest prevention is a key aspect that Green Pest Services focuses on.

All that is needed is a few simple steps that can be taken to reduce the need for pest control treatments. It is done by simply treating the areas around your home which attract the pests. Using these methods, Green Pest Services reduces the need for pest control treatments by a significant degree.

• As part of the initial treatment, experts from Green Pest Services come in to properly identify the pests. The examination of the problem will tell us about the perpetrators and the extent of the pest infestation. It will also help us determine the source of the infestation.
• Once we figure out the root of the problem and how big it is, it is a matter of taking simple measures to prevent proliferation. We will find and seal all the cracks and holes within the foundation of your home and on the exterior. Anything from gaps where the plumbing and gas lines come into your home to the gaps in windows and other ignored areas will be sealed properly.
• There will also be a focus on the reparation of screens that are old and torn. This is another important measure to stop insects coming into your home.
• We will advise how you should go about your gardening practices better to reduce pest population near your home. Usually having a trimmed garden and proper landscaping is all you need to do.
• We will also suggest disposing of your trash in a better manner. If the garbage containers outside your home have open lids, it is likely to attract more insects to your home.

Essentially, our initial focus will be on removing the possible sources of the problem. At Green Pest Services, we believe that preventing pests in the first place is the best possible measure. Once we have worked with you to ensure that these things are taken care of, we will work on the source of the infestation.

Pest Control

Our experts are not only good at eliminating pests that we can see, we can get to the ones which you never notice. You see, we are very good at understanding pest behavior. That is the best way to find out the source of the problem.

Green Pest Services gets to wherever it is these pests are coming from and take the battle to their home turf. Preventing the pests from coming into your home is just the initial step. Once we sort that out, we make sure that there are no longer any pests that will enter your home.

There is a host of environmentally friendly pest control procedures that we employ to eradicate the problem.

• Diatomaceous Earth

This is something used to eliminate pests and it is completely natural. DE is basically fossilized silica shells of algae. They are microscopic in their size but they are very effective in penetrating the cuticles of insects. There are microscopic sharp protrusions in DE which cuts the insects and causes them to die of dehydration.

Why does Green Pest Services use DE? It is quite simple. This is a natural substance which causes absolutely no harm to your children, your pets and to you.

• Insecticidal Oils

Another part of the pest control methods by Green Pest Services is the use of insecticidal oils. These oils work by causing the pests to suffocate. The oil essentially covers the pest in a liquid which cuts off their supply of oxygen. Insecticidal oils are the best measure to take against the eggs and nascent stages of the pests. They spread well and they are also going to break down early. You will not be facing any problems because of insecticidal oils.

Of course everything is not perfect. Green Pest Services is very selective with the use of insecticidal oils because it can harm certain kinds of plants. We are sure to use it sparingly because it can cause leaf damage. That being said, when you compare it to other products for pest control, it is one of the least harmful for the environment.

Integrated Pest Management

Essentially, all the environmentally friendly solutions to pest management are a part of Integrated Pest Management. It is something you cannot completely call green on its own but it is drastically different from traditional methods.

IPM reduces the need for using pesticides by 90%. Green Pest Services makes sure that all possible natural methods are applied to effectively remove the problem. We utilize more stringent products to eliminate the pests only in the direst cases.

We have a good track record at Green Pest Services. For more information about our environmentally friendly services, feel free to give us a call at any time. We’ll address all your questions.
