1. You don’t have the training necessary to safely apply pest control products.
When you hire a professional pest control company, you’re hiring someone who has been trained to do the job. This starts with coursework and apprenticeship, with lots of on-the-job training from professionals who have a great deal of experience working with pesticides and the pests they treat. Not only do they have experience with these chemicals, but they also have experience identifying pests and knowing what to use, as well as how much to use in various situations. In the state of Texas, there are multiple levels of pest control licenses and certifications with a structure that works to ensure the safe operating and handling of the powerful chemicals to these licenses give professional access. These are tools that the everyday DIYer doesn’t have access to. This leads to reason number two.
2. You don’t have access to the professional tools of the trade.
If you want to work on part of your house, you can go to the local hardware store or lumber yard and have access to the same materials a professional contractor does. This isn’t the case with pest control and for good reason. The pesticides and treatment options you see on your local store shelves are not as powerful or as efficient as the types pest control professionals are able to utilize. This is because when used incorrectly, these chemicals can do a great deal of damage. They can harm humans, wildlife, the environment – even your home. When you hire a professional, you know you’re hiring someone who not only has access to better tools but has the knowledge required to use them well. That knowledge takes us to reason three.
3. Pest control experts know their pests, know their habits, and know how to root out the source of your pest control problems.
You may be able to identify the pests you’re having problems with, but do you know their habits? Do you know their life cycles? Do you know the weather, spaces, and environment they typically thrive? These are all aspects of pest control that professionals draw on to quickly and efficiently take care of your pest control problems. They also know what to look for when it comes to monitoring the effectiveness of treatments. Without this knowledge, the chance of recurrence is much higher, and a short-term problem can become a long-term problem. You can easily end up doing more harm than good and wasting more time and money than you’d be saving by letting a professional handle the problem. Worse than losing time and money, you could end up hurting yourself or your loved ones. That leads us to reason number four.
4. Pests can be harmful and so can the methods used to eliminate them.
Here in Texas, we have no shortage of common pests. Many of them are more of an annoyance than anything else. Nobody likes having a garage full of crickets or dealing with a rogue varmint.
Where certain pests may mainly pose a frustration, there’s a long list of bugs that can be harmful. Pests can carry diseases. Many of those pests are attracted to the foods in your home, or worse – humans.
From roaches to bedbugs, pests can take root and be highly difficult for the weekend warrior to exterminate. Some damage your homes, like rodents, termites, and carpenter
