Do you think that you have an infestation, but you are worried about exposing your family to harmful chemicals? Many companies offering pest control use conventional products for rodent and insect treatments. Even though the chemicals are handled by professionals, it is understandable that homeowners are worried about how the pesticides could impact the health of their family members.

How Do Pesticides Impact Your Health?

Pesticides are used prevalently in farming and building treatments, raising serious concerns about the health effects of these chemicals. The side-effects might not produce immediate symptoms, but time will tell the impact of long-term exposure to chemicals. Pets, children, and older adults are especially sensitive to these chemicals.

The best approach is to minimize pesticide exposure as much as possible. But, that doesn’t mean that you need to suffer with insects or rodents in your home. Instead, you can talk to an eco-friendly pest control team here at EcoGeek.

First Approach: Natural Pest Control Treatment

We are committed to protecting your health in every way possible. So, our treatment plan focuses on natural methods of pest control first, before traditional treatments are used. It is common for a pest control company to tell homeowners that the best prevention technique is to spray the foundation regularly with pesticides. But, we have found that this conventional method is lazy, and it increases the chemical contamination around your home.

‍

Instead of spraying your foundation without further thought, we will put in the time and effort to use alternative techniques in and around your home. This Integrated Pest Management (IPM) process involves a thorough approach:

• Identifying problems that lead to pest infestation
• Correcting infestations that are present
• Using non-chemical and less-hazardous products for treatments
• Visiting regularly to determine the effectiveness of the pest control treatments
• Preventing pest infestations before they occur

‍

Natural pest control doesn’t mean that we never use certain pest control products if needed. Instead, we focus on the natural options first and use the conventional methods only when absolutely necessary. Not only will you have the peace of mind to know that you are protecting the health of your family. But, this natural approach to pest control is the best thing that you can do to eliminate contamination to the environment.
