DIY Pest Control vs. Absolute Pest Control
It is safe to say that we all despise bugs. It is also safe to say that many of us look for ways to save money. Often times our plans of saving money actually ends up costing us even more money down the road. There are many ways options to saving money, but pest control should not be the area of cutting cost. Pest control should be a priority in home maintenance. Although most pests are more of a nuisance, many pests can be dangerous, destroy homes, and even carry deadly diseases.
Home improvement stores carry many “do-it-yourself” products (DIY Pest Control products) that have fancy labels that say “kills on contact” or even promise that their products will keep the problems under control for up to a year. Such products may be great for that quick fix, but they are not as effective in treating the source of the problem. There is a chance that your home could have a small infestation, and unless you are treating the entire problem, including the source, pests will continue to return and continue costing you even more money down the road. For example, termites can cause major structural damage to your home or business. This type of infestation could cost thousands of dollars in repairs. There are no products in stores that could guarantee to eliminate this type of infestation, nor do they guarantee to help prevent future outbreaks.
Pest control is not just about spraying, nor is it possible to treat with instant kill solutions. Pest control is about management. Pest Management Professionals (PMP), such as Absolute Pest Control, are companies that use highly concentrated products that not only treat the initial problem, they provide long term solutions. Not only do they use instant kill treatments, they locate the source of the problem and determine the best way to get rid of it, as well as prevent it from returning.
Pest management consists of four main steps; locate and treat the problem, monitoring, prevention, and control. You cannot get pest management from products sold on the shelf at the local home improvement store. Professional companies like Absolute Pest control, practices these steps to ensure that the problem is located, treated, and remains under control to prevent future infestations. They also offer a money back guarantee. So called one-time treatments are only a quick way of throwing our money down the drain. I am sure all of us cannot afford to just throw money away.
It is important to remember that there is no such thing as an effective one-time treatment; the majority of problems with pests are a result from a bigger problem and coming from somewhere else. It is important to identify that source and eliminate it in the beginning. Saving a few dollars at a local home improvement store with ineffective DIY pest control products could end up costing you thousands in the future. If you want to save money, call a professional, because the value of getting things right the first time could make a huge difference in your wallet.
