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.
