Pest Control & Maintenance 

When you want a lasting solution to keep your home or business pest free without increasing risks to people or the environment, you may want to consider integrated pest management. IPM is a long term strategy for Modesto pest control that uses a combination of techniques and strategies to get rid of pests and prevent reinfestation. 

The techniques used in integrated pest management include: 

• Biological control – This approach uses the natural enemies of certain pests to control their damage. This can include parasites, competitors, or predators. 
• Physical or mechanical controls – A physical control is a method that is designed to create a physical barrier to keep pests out, such as using screens and blocking access points. A mechanical control is the use of a device, such as rodent traps. 
• Cultural control – A cultural control is a method that is designed to reduce the ability of pests to reproduce, survive, and disperse. 
• Chemical control – The use of pest control products, including the products used and application methods, are designed to provide the maximum results, while minimizing potential harm to people and the ecosystem. 

A multipronged approach to pest management is more effective than just spraying chemicals everywhere and hoping for the best. A properly designed and executed program that is customized to the unique requirements of your property will provide the most effective results and a long term pest management solution.
