The Necessity of a Year-Long Pest Control Plan

Written by gslight | Jan 9, 2015 3:33:55 PM

Many homes and businesses do not give pest control or pest management services much–if any–consideration until a pest problem has actually been detected. This is troublesome, because by the time pests are evident to building residents, it likely means they’ve become deeply embedded in the infrastructure or have a flourishing population that cannot be overlooked. At this point, pest control services become an expensive emergency fix.

However, if the family or business had invested in an annual pest control plan, with regular subscription inspections and protection being applied, it’s far likelier they’d never have to deal with a severe pest infestation in the first place. Consider the short- and long-term benefits of a year-long pest control plan.

Main Benefits of a Yearly Pest Control Plan

1. Earlier Pest Detection

When a professional pest technician visits your home or office building at least once a month, they become familiar with the place’s normal conditions and so are more easily attuned to aberrant signs that could suggest a new or growing pest presence.

2. Less Potential Damage

Regular pest inspections heighten the chances of detecting pest infestations in the earliest stages, meaning the insects, rodents, or otherwise won’t have as much time to spread disease or damage the building materials.

3. Lower Cost

Rather than paying for a costly emergency pest eradication, regular pest control services are highly affordable and can keep expensive cleanings or high-tech techniques from ever being necessary. While you are paying more regularly for monthly service, a single emergency could easily cost many times more than an annual subscription.

4. Peace of Mind

Your family or employees will feel more comfortable in the home or office, knowing they’re being protected by ongoing pest services. This leads to a greater quality of life as well as focus and productivity.

5. Up-to-Date Techniques

When a pest technician visits on a monthly basis throughout the year, you can rest assured they’ll use only the latest and most effective pest control techniques–including green and non-toxic pest control methods. Plus they can apply seasonal pest blockers, rather than just generic approaches that might let certain pests slip by during winter or summer months.

Has your family or business invested in a monthly, ongoing pest control plan? Consider how much the low cost and minimal effort of regular pest inspections can save you from highly damaging or dangerous pest infestations that could have a far more negative impact on your living or work environment.
