Question 1

What is pest control?

Accepted Answer

Pest control is the process of managing or removing pests from a specific area, most commonly a house or place of business. A pest is generally defined as any insect, rodent, or creature considered undesirable due to an invasion of property. This invasion can cause extensive damage, or result in health risks due to pathogens carried by most pests.

Question 2

Do I need pest control?

Accepted Answer

Pest infestations often grow to unmanageable levels within very short periods of time, and can be incredibly difficult to deal with as an individual using DIY methods. Pest control is often essential in getting an infestation under control.  If an infestation is left to grow, it may result in;
 
·        the contamination of food and subsequent illness
·        damage to belongings and property
·        reputational ruin

For the above reasons, the fast and effective management of pests is vital in both residential and commercial properties – hiring a professional in pest control is the best way to ensure this. A qualified pest controller will develop and implement a plain tailored to the situation and affected property.

Question 3

Is pest control safe?

Accepted Answer

Pest control, when conducted by certified professionals, such as East Anglia Pest Control, is safe. A pest controller will ensure that all necessary precautions are taken when conducting treatments in order to assure the safety of any people or pets present on property. It is safer to deal with an infestation rather than deal with continued exposure to pathogens carried by pests.

Question 4

What does fumigation do?

Accepted Answer

Fumigation is a commonly used process in pest control, which uses a gaseous pesticide to remove small insects or rodents from both residential and commercial properties.  Fumigation generally involves the enclosing of a property in tarp, tents, or a similar sealing agent. By sealing the property, a pest controller can ensure that the fumigant used to exterminate the pests permeates all areas. This tarp, or tent, can be left on for up to several days, depending on the severity of the infestation.

Question 5

How often should pest control be done in a commercial property?

Accepted Answer

The frequency at which pest control is implemented is generally established during the survey or monitoring phase of a pest controller’s visit to an affected property. This assessment is generally based on factors such as the type of pest present, scale of infestation, season, and type of property.

If the species of pest infesting a property is generally seasonal, it would make little sense to implement a regular pest control plan. However, if the pest is reoccurring, it would be sensible to establish regular treatments.

Certain commercial properties require more regular levels of pest control to further prevent the appearance of pests. These properties tend to include food stores, or doctor’s offices.

Question 6

How often should pest control be done in a residential property?

Accepted Answer

The frequency at which pest control is implemented is generally established during the survey or monitoring phase of a pest controller’s visit to an affected property. This assessment is generally based on factors such as the type of pest present, scale of infestation, season, and type of property.

If the species of pest infesting a property is generally seasonal, it would make little sense to implement a regular pest control plan. However, if the pest is reoccurring, it would be sensible to establish regular treatments.
