If you don’t want these, or any of those other insects, rodents and spiders in your house it’s easy to keep them out – just don’t invite them in. Of course, that’s easy to say, but, in the real world, much, much harder to do. That’s because most of us don’t know what the invitation looks like and with the number of different pests out there looking for a home you will need a professional in Integrated Pest Management (IPM). Why mention IPM here? An IPM approach is focused on the removal of the three key elements pests need to survive: food, water, and shelter.

Of course, you or any pest control company can find a chemical strong enough to kill just about anything. But, at home you, your family, visitors and your pets, still want to be able to live in the house without worrying. And if you're a business owner you don't want your employees and your customers or clients exposed to unnecessary dangers of any kind

So what is the best way to protect your home, family, and business from pests, like these and others? The best way is to make your home or place of business UNATTRACTIVE to pests so that they don't want to enter in the first place.
