It’s hard to believe that another year has come and gone, but here we are, celebrating the New Year and making another list of resolutions. As a homeowner, you know that your home requires year-round maintenance. Sure, it’s easy to let some things go, but other things can’t be ignored. When it comes to pest control, it’s important to protect your house throughout the year, not just in the spring and summer. Keeping your home pest-free involves many layers of protection, including hiring a pest control service.
As we enter the New Year, here are five reasons to hire a professional pest management service:
1. Work Around Your Schedule: If you notice signs of pest activity in your residence, the first step is to schedule an appointment with an exterminator. However, waiting for an appointment can lead to more damage. The key to successfully treating pest infestations is to treat them early. When you sign a contract with a pest control service, you get faster, more flexible appointments and return visits, often at no charge.
2. Save Money And Damage: Some people look at pest control services as a luxury, but this is far from the case. What happens if termites chew through the wood in your home? Who do you call if you bring bed bugs home from your holiday travels? Pest control professionals are necessary to our safety and well-being. Working with an exterminator ensures that your home gets year-round attention to save money and prevent damage.
3. Protect Your Health: Some infestations are harmless but annoying. Others can be detrimental to your health. For example, rats and mice carry over 35 spreadable diseases. Mosquitoes are some of the deadliest creatures on the planet. Bees can also be deadly if you or someone in your family is allergic. Pest control services know how to work with these types of pests so that you don’t have to risk your health.
4. Less Exposure To Chemicals: Many homeowners are quick to reach for over-the-counter pest control products to quell activity. The problem is that many of these products are filled with chemicals that can be harmful for humans and pets. Pest professionals tend to work with environmentally safe products. If they do have to work with something more potent, they have the necessary protection to do so safely.
5. Specialized Plans: Pest control plans are always customized to the customer and their needs. For example, Heritage Pest Control considers the size of your home, the infestation you want to control and long-term prevention. We continue to monitor the home and make small improvements to keep your home pest-free.
