Why is Pest Control Important?

Health Risks: Pests like rodents, cockroaches, and mosquitoes can carry diseases that are harmful to humans. For example, rodents are known to spread hantavirus and salmonella, while mosquitoes are vectors for diseases like West Nile virus and malaria.

Property Damage: Termites, carpenter ants, and rodents can cause significant damage to your home. Termites alone cause billions of dollars in property damage each year by eating away at wood structures.

Allergies and Asthma: Many pests, such as cockroaches and dust mites, can trigger allergies and asthma attacks. Their droppings, shed skins, and saliva can exacerbate respiratory conditions, particularly in children and the elderly.

Food Safety: Pests can contaminate food supplies, leading to foodborne illnesses. Keeping your kitchen and pantry free of pests is crucial for maintaining a healthy diet.
