Residential Pest Control- Let the Home Be for you not for the Pests

Residential pest control is slightly different from disinfecting a commercial building and totally different from agricultural pest control. You have children and pets at home; and so you need a careful and thoughtful person to handle the job. The termite treatments or other products used should be safe for children (and you too,) and yet the effect should remain for a longtime. You can’t be bothered to take up home pest control again and again.

Alarmingly, bed bugs are reappearing across the States! Though it is not conclusively proven, the bed bugs are associated with over 25 diseases; if nothing else, you will lose sleep every time the bug bites.

Fire ants, ants, rats and mice, cockroaches, scorpions and spiders are common in Dallas and Texas (all most all over the world anyway.) And then there are the troublesome termites.

Termite treatments come up for discussion more often when talking about residential pest control; the reason is simple, the tenacious termites leave more visible and permanent damage than other pests. They eat up expensive woodwork, damage clothes; and worse, though it can’t be seen easily, termites weaken building foundation. And, you can’t just swat them away.

There is only one good way for residential pest control in general and termite treatments in particular. Take it up right away. In fact, pre-construction round of termite treatments gives a long term protection.

Termidor is a termite treatment product tested under the USDA-Forest Service ground board and concrete slab trials – over 11 years it has proved effective against termites. This is the product used by Dallas residential pest control companies. The technician pulls back the carpets, drills around the wet bar area and all the plumbing connections; and applies suitable termite treatments, including wall foaming.

Then the person moves over to more essential part; drills around the foundation on the outside of the house and repeats the process of applying termite treatments, and wall foaming.

A dependable residential pest control company will use anti-termite treatment products that bond with the soil properly and provide long term protection.
