Why Rodent Proofing Is An Environmentally-Friendly Option For Your Home

If you’re a lover of the environment, chances are you also have a love and respect for wildlife. You believe that everything serves a purpose and should be able to do so without the fear of being extinguished. Be that as it may, you don’t want to live with pests like mice, rats, squirrels, or raccoons. Since pests pose a risk to you, your family, and your property, you have to find a safe way to keep these intruders at bay. 

DIY Pest Control is Expensive

One of the first things people consider is trying to get rid of pests on themselves. After they’ve cleaned the house and gotten rid of what they believe is the source of the problem, they use natural remedies or store-bought products to get rid of pests. While there are some natural methods to reduce the presence of pests, it’s not always foolproof. Not to mention, purchasing eco-friendly pest control products from the store can get costly if the pests continue to return. 

Extermination Is Hazardous

When you can’t get rid of pests with natural remedies and environmentally-friendly products, the next approach is to hire an exterminator. The only problem with this option is that it’s hazardous to you, your family, pets, and the surrounding environment. Many of the pesticides used during the extermination process contain harmful chemicals that can lead to illness in both humans and animals. Not to mention, extermination methods are meant to kill the existing pests, not keep others from returning to your house. 

They Will Return

When pests find a place that provides food and shelter, they’re going to remain there as long as possible. Even as you try DIY methods and hire an exterminator, it’s only a temporary fix; especially if you didn’t hit the right spots or pinpoint the source. Once the coast is clear, they’ll find their way back into your home and start multiplying. The larger the infestation is, the more expensive and complicated it becomes to get rid of your pest problem for good.

Pest Proofing Is A Better Option

More property owners are turning to pest or rodent-proofing as an eco-friendly option to keep tiny intruders out of their residences. It doesn’t involve harsh chemicals and eliminates the need to keep purchasing products from the store, giving you peace of mind and a few extra bucks in your wallet.

A contractor that specializes in pest proofing Orange County, for instance, will come to your house and assess the magnitude of your problem. Using their years of training, experience, and state-of-the-art technologies, they can determine various entry points that need to be sealed. Once the problem is identified, they’ll use a series of techniques to keep rodents out of your house. 

More than covering holes and cracks, a pest-proofing contractor will decontaminate the space to get rid of any droppings and eggs they find. Then, they’ll assess the area for any potential damage to your property like electrical wiring, HVAC systems, and structural damage. If you have the budget for it, they can handle these issues for you using their network of professionals to complete the task. Whether you need new insulation or electrical wiring repairs, they’ll make sure your home is safe and secure. The best part about their services is that there’s no need for harmful chemicals. Not to mention, you shouldn’t have any further issues with pests entering the home. 

Your love and appreciation for all living things shouldn’t mean that you have to live with insects and pests in your home. If you noticed signs of bugs, mice, rats, or other pests and rodents in your living space, it’s best to take action. As DIY methods and extermination efforts aren’t effective and can prove dangerous to your health and the environment, it’s ideal to consider other options. With pest-proofing, you can get rid of existing pests, resolve any damage, decontaminate your home, and seal up entry points to ensure they don’t return.

    The effectiveness of rodent proofing was definitely something that caught my attention from this article. Try as we might, we simply can’t seem to get away from this rat issue that we’ve been wanting relief from for weeks. I’ll have a pest control expert stop by for extermination first then we can ask them to help us with prevention.
