More and more people are voicing their concern, about the use of chemicals and pesticides, in traditional pest control treatments. The side-effects and other possible dangers, create as much fear in homeowners and tenants; as the pests themselves do.
I agree that there is legislation in place to protect citizens, however there have been instances where unruley pest control companies have applied aggressive techniques, including pesticides; when there was a clear danger to the community. In fact, recently in New Jersey, a Newark pest control company was fined by the DEP, for applying prohibited chemicals; in more than 50 area homes. These chemical pesticides we clearly not approved for indoor use.
Nevertheless, the search for a "green" exterminator with dependable natural pest control services, is fueled by the public's outrage over incidents like the one in NJ, and the continued dangers these chemicals present; to unsuspecting residents and the environment.
More and more people are conducting research, and discovering that there are loads of natural alternatives to traditionaltreatments. Rising in popularity, is the use of beneficial insects as natural pest control providers, in gardens and flowerbeds.
