HOW DOES PEST CONTROL WORK?

What does pest control do?

Pest control is designed to kill pests in your house, roof, around the outside of your house, and from your fence line back through your yard and outdoor space. Treatment of this type provides a protective  barrier preventing pests re-establishing themselves on the property for up to 12 months. 

What do the chemicals do?

The chemicals are designed to target pests such as cockroaches, spiders, crickets, silverfish, ants and various other pests around the family home. Yard areas also harbour unwanted pests that need treating to prevent insects entering the house.

How do the chemicals work?

Spraying surface areas that insects crawl on, or spraying spider webs leads to the insects picking up the chemical which seeps in to their body. This reacts with the enzymes in the stomach and results in the death of the targeted insect.

What are the chemicals used in pest control?

The main chemical, Bifenthrin, is 100% naturally derived from the chrysanthemum flower. There are other products available which are synthetic versions which kill the targeted pests in different ways, and are equally effective.

What areas should be sprayed?

Areas that are treated inside the house are along all flooring edges of each room, to ensure a complete protective barrier internally. Outside spraying should include under eaves, on all wall surfaces, window frames, fences and gardens to cover all areas and leaving nowhere for pests to hide.
