Pacific Palisades

Termite and Pest Control in Pacific Palisade

When it comes to beautiful West Coast communities, there are few that are as iconic as the picturesque Pacific Palisades. This community has its origins in the silent film era and has gone from a location that was almost wholly undeveloped to a burgeoning area with idyllic homes. The Pacific Palisades are widely considered to be an area that is mostly residential, and for this reason, many of the homes here are highly in demand.

As a coastal community, extermination services are often needed, especially with the sometimes humid environment and rich, moist soil in the area. For this reason, Treebark, which is an extermination specialist company, provides service to the Pacific Palisades area, but before we get into our service offerings, let’s take a look at the Pacific Palisades in a nutshell.

Pest Control

No one wants to go into their home and find something skittering around that shouldn’t be there. When you are faced with this kind of situation, it can almost be confusing; are there more around in the walls? Where did it come from? But unfortunately, a moist area like the Pacific Palisades has a tendency to draw all types of insect and animal life, and areas that are safe, like a home, are very attractive to any number of pest species.

Here are just a few of the pests that can be encountered in this otherwise idyllic part of the California coast:

• German Cockroach: These have a tendency to be found anywhere where there might be excess food or where there’s a steady water source. These are insidious because they are small, fast, and can breed very quickly. They love to come into homes via boxes, grocery bags, or just via a book bag or purse that’s been left in the wrong place for too long. On top of this, when they are in their juvenile nymph stage, they are very tiny, so they can easily get around unnoticed in the nap of your carpet. If you have a pet and you keep food out all day, this is a sure way to draw these incredibly pesky insects to your home.

• American Cockroach: Like their cousins, the German cockroach, American cockroaches are drawn to moist, humid environments. These insects also will breed in water, and they can even come up into your home via the drain system. They love the areas around pipes and are opportunistic feeders, so anything from leftover crumbs to small scraps of paper will feed them. They are also much larger than their German counterparts, so they can be quite shocking if you discover them scurrying around your home. Unfortunately, these are native to the United States; they can be found just about anywhere, and they don’t just come around due to poor sanitation.

• Mosquitoes: If there is a lot of standing water, then you can bet that there will be more than a few mosquitoes around. The Pacific Palisades is a place where mosquito populations can thrive, and this species of insect is especially dangerous because it’s one of the most dangerous vectors for disease in the world. In fact, in October 2018, there was a case of mosquito-borne encephalitis, which is a particularly devastating disease.

• Rats and Mice: Everyone knows about the dangers of mouse and rat contamination; it was one of the main causes of the Black Death. While these little beasties might seem cute and cuddly, they are well-known disease carriers, and if you see them around your home, there might be more just waiting in the rafters. Like other pests, these rodents are opportunistic feeders, so you can expect them to eat just about anything that’s not nailed down – they’ve even been known to eat through walls.

• Spiders: Spiders are a good indication that there are other types of infestations happening throughout your home because they need to predate to survive. Having these also might mean that there is an excess of cracks and crevices throughout your property that should be shored up because outside spiders may be coming in if there is an ample food source on your property.

• Ants: Another colony insect that works very similarly to termites, ants can quickly spread thanks to the fact that a single queen can produce 300,000 eggs. You won’t even notice the full scope of a colony, but you will see stragglers searching your home for new sources of food. Ants are also particularly hardy; they can survive underwater for long periods of time, and they are very hard to kill.

• Bed Bugs: Out of all the nasty pests in our guide, bed bugs are the only ones that feed exclusively on our blood, so you’re the main food source! These are typically very hard to notice, and they love to make their way from one home to another via an article of clothing. These nasties can even last for up to a year without a drop of blood, so just starving them out can take a lot of time. On top of this, they are very hard to notice until you’ve gotten a full-on infestation.

The History of the Pacific Palisades

As we mentioned, the Pacific Palisades started out in the heyday of Hollywood; in fact, the original iteration of the community began with a project by the famous director, Thomas Ince, back in 1911. During this period of the area’s history, the Palisades were a filming location that was used to house his development studio, Inceville.

After the days of silent-era moviemaking came to a close, the area was purchased by the Southern California Methodist Episcopal Church, and it was during this period when major construction began on some of the homes that still exist here today. Since this early period, the Pacific Palisades have been steadily growing, and today, more than 25,000 people call this area of Los Angeles home.

Some Local Features

• The Via Mesa and The Huntington Palisades: These are two neighborhoods that are situated between the canyons and the Pacific Ocean. As a result, there are plenty of bluffs and beautiful vistas that the residents enjoy on a daily basis. This part of town also borders The Village, so it’s easy for residents to explore this part of the area just by walking.

• The Riviera: Located about two miles east of The Village, the Riviera is packed with street names that are meant to evoke the other famous Rivieras in France and Italy. Sunset Boulevard runs through this section of the community, and this area is bordered by Brentwood and Santa Monica.

o The Riviera Country Club: In addition to being a great place to live, The Riviera is also home to the prestigious Riviera Country Club, which is a country club that has been host to some of the world’s most prestigious golf events and players. In its heyday, actors that enjoy golf have played here, and the list contains some truly iconic performers like Dean Martin and Rita Hayworth. The club is also home to tennis, and throughout the year, events are hosted here as well.

• Will Rogers State Beach: One of the most picturesque state parks in Southern California can be found at Will Rogers State Beach. This beach extends for almost two miles, and there are volleyball courts and plenty of space to sun. This beach was actually once owned by its namesake and remained so until the death of his widow in 1944. Afterward, it gained its state park status and has been a major hang out location for millions of beachgoers in the Pacific Palisades area.

• Rustic Canyon: This neighborhood is situated east of Chautauqua Boulevard, and this area is considered a very picturesque location for those looking for pleasant geography. This is also the original site of the famous Uplifters Clubhouse, but this area has now been converted to a city park.

• Rustic Canyon Park: This area, which is the aforementioned park, is located in the Pacific Palisades area of Rustic Canyon, which is also the neighborhood that features the most post-war homes in the area. There’s a lot to do in the park, including tennis, basketball, and baseball. There’s also more than enough space for standard picnics, but if you’re thinking about a group picnic activity, you’ll need a permit.

• Will Rogers State Historic Park: If you’re curious about how the famous Hollywood western movie star lived, then the Pacific Palisades is home to the Will Rogers State Historic Park. This park once served as the home of one of the highest paid actors in Hollywood’s yesteryear. It’s a full ranch estate, and you can learn a lot about how Hollywood used to be.

When it comes to local homes, there has been a lot of development in the area since 1970, but in some neighborhoods, many of the houses that were built during the heyday of Hollywood still stand, and there are many palatial estates to consider if you’re looking for a sense of true luxury. Also, there are many beachfront homes in the Pacific Palisades, so for those that love the shore, there are certainly options to consider that will allow you to walk mere feet to reach the shoreline.

When it comes to parks and recreation, this area of Southern California is populated with several options for anyone that loves the great outdoors. As a general rule, these areas are well-kept, and some of the parks are staffed while some are not.

Termite Control

In an area of the city where there are many older, wooden homes, termites can become a major issue. There are two types of termites that one might encounter when living in a home in the Pacific Palisades: subterranean and drywood termites. Since this part of the state is right on the coast, the unique temperatures of this region make for a very stable environment for both types of termites.

In fact, termites cause more than five billion dollars in property damage to homes that are much like the ones in the Pacific Palisades every single year. Also, on a year-by-year basis, termites and the damage they cause are detected in more than half a million homes. So, clearly, these pests are a major problem for those living in wooden homes throughout the nation (with the exception of those living in Alaska where the climate is too cold for any termite species).

Still, since there are two primary species that affect those of us living in the United States, it’s a good idea to understand what differentiates one termite species from the other. Let’s take a look at some of the features of each so that you can understand what to look out for.

Subterranean Termites

Throughout the United States and in many places around the world, subterranean termites are by far the most common type of termite infestation that will be encountered by homeowners. These termites have a tendency to prefer softer woods, and as a result, they tend to dig through wood structures along the grain of the wood. The most common subspecies of subterranean termite is the Formosan termite, which has origins in the Asian continent but can now be found nearly worldwide.

Subterranean termites are named the way they are because they require a certain level of moisture to survive, and this moisture level can be found within the soil throughout the country. This moisture also provides them with the required levels of humidity to extend their nests far above ground level. In fact, a common practice among subterranean termite colonies is to build mud tubes. These provide a passageway for these underground pests to enter the wood structures that are underneath your home.

Drywood Termites

As the name implies, drywood termites don’t tunnel up from the ground, but they need even higher levels of moisture to survive because they don’t use mud tubes and soil to maintain high humidity levels. As a result, these termites have a tendency to appear in coastal regions, so there’s a chance that you’ll encounter this species in the Pacific Palisades. To keep their moisture at the proper levels, drywood termites will extract all the moisture they can from the wood.

Due to the fact that these termites usually have smaller colonies than the subterranean, you might think that they are less of a threat to your home. This is actually the opposite of the truth; drywood termites are a bit more insidious because they live entirely in the wood, so there’s less of a chance that you’ll notice that you’ll have an infestation. The chief way to detect an infestation is to identify their frass (fecal material), and this is hard because it looks like sawdust.

As a result, many homes in areas like the Pacific Palisades go without noticing a drywood infestation until the damage is very extensive. Also, unlike subterranean termites, drywood termites don’t just stick to a diet of softwoods; both hard and softwoods are edible for them, and they can eat along the grain as well, so their tunneling patterns look very different than the more common species.

What a Termite Infestation Means for Your Home

Simply put, this isn’t something that you can ignore. As mentioned, termites deal billions of dollars worth of damage to homes just like yours throughout the country, so it’s important to get out ahead of the pesky critters. Since the primary food source for both types of termites is wood, you’d be surprised at how fast a termite invasion can turn a livable home into a major hazard to human occupation because the wood will become severely weakened.

Look at it this way: during the course of a termite invasion, a colony can produce millions of offspring, and there can be multiple colonies forming within the wooden structures of your home. In a five-month period, just one of these colonies can eat through a wooden structure the size of a two by four, and with multiple colonies working through your home, this means some significant danger, especially considering species like the subterranean termite tends to start with wooden structures near the soil level.

How fast can a termite colony reach into the millions? Well, consider this: a single queen termite can produce as many as 30,000 termites in a single day, so this number can easily spiral into two million individuals in a colony within about two months, and in such a short span of time, you might not even notice that you have an infestation. Also, this same queen can live up to 25 years, so imagine the potential for destruction from a single termite!

Termite Control Services

So, by now, you may understand why getting rid of the infestation as quickly as possible is crucial for the longevity of your home. At Treebark, we understand that homes in the Pacific Palisades need a level of protection that will ensure that termites won’t do excessive damage and devalue the beautiful properties that exist in this iconic area of Los Angeles. Treebark has been at this for a long time, and we have a combined 70 years of experience in the control of all of the various termite species and subspecies that can appear in homes throughout the state.

We operate in Southern California, and we understand all of the pest species that might appear in areas like the Pacific Palisades. We don’t believe in using materials that are unsafe for pets and children, and we go to great lengths to ensure that your loved ones are safe in an insect-free environment. We also use organic solutions for pest treatment, which helps keep non-target organisms like birds, fish, and plants living in the environment safe.

If you’ve seen termites on your property or you even SUSPECT that there may be termites working their way through your wood surfaces, give us a call today at (714) 975-5267. We are very serious about helping people in the Pacific Palisades live a termite-free lifestyle, and we use the Treebark system, which is designed to kill termites for years on your property.

Termite Control Companies

One of the chief drawbacks of trusting many termite control companies is their dependence on harsh poisons that aren’t particularly healthy for yourself, your kids, or your pets. Cheap companies that specialize in this type of insect control often focus on getting the job done quick, which means that all the steps to prevent future infestations aren’t always carried out.

Fortunately, this is why Treebark stands out; we want to protect your home from future occurrences of termites, and our system is designed to last for years. Also, each of our employees understands the signs and signals of termite infestation and understands the precise steps that you’ll need to take to become termite-free.

Free Termite Inspection

It can be hard to know if you have termites – most frass, which is the termite fecal matter, looks a lot like sawdust, which many homeowners consider to be somewhat normal. For this reason, we offer all of our customers a free inspection so that we can evaluate whether or not you have any active colonies throughout your home. We understand termites, and each of our specialists knows all of the warning signs for both subterranean and drywood species.

Additionally, an estimate provided by our specialists is completely free, so why not give us a call today? We can be reached at (714) 975-5267. We service all of Southern California, so if you have properties outside of the Pacific Palisades area that need our attention, we can help.

Termite Treatment

So, what is it that makes Treebark special? Well, the answer is in our name. Our founder, Aaron Cunningham, hated the fact that much of the “modern” treatment for termites and other pest species involved sometimes harmful chemicals. Fortunately, nature provided a way. In South America, a species of tree stood out because of its ability to be completely termite-free. This tree, which is called the Ryania Speciosa or the ryania tree, has a unique ability to debilitate any invading termite species. In fact, once a termite comes across the bark, the result can be colony-ending.

As you might expect, the chemical compound that’s responsible for this evolved specifically for the termite, so other species living in and around the ryania are unaffected. When we learned of this, it was a game changer, and soon, the people at Sygenta produced the synthetic compound, which is called chlorantraniliprole, which has all of the anti-termite features of the ryania speciosa bark. Thanks to this compound, we had a safe way to help our customers rid themselves of termites, and Treebark Termite and Pest Control Services was born.

Chlorantraniliprole is VERY effective against just about every species of termite. Once they come in contact with the organic poison, they ingest it and carry it back to the colony. Chlorantraniliprole is completely unnoticeable by just about any termite, but once it goes out into the larger termite community, any termite that has been exposed quickly starts to experience paralysis in its mandibles, which effectively stops the tunneling process through your wood structures. Eventually, the chlorantraniliprole causes the termites to lose energy, experience paralysis, and die.

Pest Control Services

So, now that you know a little about the enemy, what can you do to protect your home from these little pests? Your best bet in an area of the state like the Pacific Palisades is to hire a company like Treebark. We understand precisely what it takes to get these pests out of your home. Many of the pests that we’ve listed above are present in this area of Southern California, and many can come virtually from anywhere, so when you see them, it’s a good idea to contact us immediately.

Remember, at Treebark, we’re committed to providing completely eco-friendly means of getting rid of just about all of the pests we’ve mentioned. Also, if you’re worried about your kids, your pets, or just worried about coming in contact with any chemicals that are designed to control pests, remember, we have many less harsh options. If there’s a stronger infestation, we also have professional-grade solutions that can help rid your home of the invaders very quickly. Remember, we specialize in organic IPM, but sometimes, for some pest species, you need to use the stronger options for the best, longer-lasting results.

Pest Control Companies

So, why not attempt to handle the pests in your own home with over-the-counter pest solutions? While these can sometimes be effective, taking a do-it-yourself perspective on insect control can sometimes be self-defeating. When you buy products like this, you’re not always getting the best performance, and since you’re not a specialist, it’s sometimes easy to get the wrong chemicals that can be dangerous if used improperly. For these reasons, it’s best to engage with a professional pest control company like Treebark that understands precisely what’s needed to reduce the number of infesting pests down to zero.

Treebark’s very name is based on our utilization of the ryania speciosa system of ridding homes of invasive species like termites using a natural solution. While the bark isn’t used directly, a synthetic version of this anti-termite compound called chlorantraniliprole is our eco-friendly method of helping our customers safely. Not only is this chemical eco-friendly, but it’s also effective at helping rid homes of spiders, ants, and crickets.

Free Pest Inspection

So, you suspect that you have a pest infestation, but you’re not 100 percent sure where to start so that you can get rid of the problem quickly and easily. Additionally, sometimes, you don’t even know you’re dealing with an infestation, so what do you do? At Treebark, we offer all of our prospective customers a free inspection so that we can determine whether your home is in need of an extermination session. We understand the world of pests, and we know precisely what it takes to rid a home in the Pacific Palisades of just about any level of infestation.

In addition to this, if we do an estimate about the cost of performing control services on your property, we’ll provide this completely for free. For this reason, calling us can give you some peace of mind, so give us a call today at (714) 975-5267. Remember, Treebark operates in the majority of the areas in Southern California, and we’re flexible. We can provide you with help for any property that you own in our service region.

Pest Control Treatments

While it’s nice to be completely pest-free, having the pests come back a few months down the line would still be counterproductive, wouldn’t it? With this simple logic in mind, our founder Aaron Cunningham set out to make the Treebark experience different from some of the limited-scope work that can sometimes be present in the industry. For this reason, we’re known for our pest treatments, which provide a protective barrier around your home and can help prevent reoccurrences of pest infestation for sometimes years at a time.

Our most common treatments are designed to provide very little environmental impact, and local species of fish, birds, and beneficial insects will typically go unaffected by our pest and termite control techniques. Also, the majority of our pest treatments utilize our Treebark system, so pets and children will be safe, even when pest species like ants, crickets, and spiders are finding your property completely unlivable.

Treebark is dedicated to helping you find the best pest management and control treatments. For a free consultation, give us a call today at (714) 975-5267.

Exterminator

So, what do you do when you experience some creepy crawlies running around your home? Pests can vary from small mammals like mice or rats to destructive invaders like termites and ants. In just about every situation, seeing these in your home in the Pacific Palisades can be outright traumatizing! This area of the California coast does have its share of moisture- and humidity-loving animal and insect species, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that some people require the help of a professional so that their home can be set right.

Remember, seeing things like insect or mammal fecal matter is a sure indicator that there’s at least a few individuals running around your home, and sometimes, there’s almost no indication that an infestation is happening. For this reason, periodic extermination specialist visits to check out your property can save you money in the long run. Consider this: the worst offenders like bed bugs, termites, and roaches can actually do damage to you and your home, so it’s always a good idea to know the “lay of the land” so to speak.

At Treebark, we know about all of the various opportunistic feeders and outright pests that can be found in the Southern California area, so having a consult with one of our extermination specialists can only help ease any concerns that you may have.

So, why consider Treebark Termite and Pest service? Well, we have over 70 years of experience ridding homes across the Southern California area of various types of infestations. Our founder Aaron Cunningham also has years of experience and is absolutely dedicated to providing as safe an insect and mammal control experience as possible for you and your family. With this in mind, the company started using the synthetic compound chlorantraniliprole years ago because of its eco-friendliness; this compound is based in a unique South American tree that repels and kills insects like termites.

It’s essential to understand that commercial insecticides can be very strong and even dangerous, so a company that goes out of its way to avoid using them unless the situation is dire can be priceless. Also, despite the different path we take, we are known for our effectiveness in the So Cal area as well as our family-friendliness.

Exterminator Services

Ideally, you should have an extermination specialist at your property as often as once every two months. While you might not witness direct signs of infestation, regular visits from a specialist will ensure that your home remains protected from any potential stragglers that may be looking for a new site for a colony or nest.

At Treebark, we work hard to help our customers in the Pacific Palisades and in the greater southern California area keep termite and pest-free homes. We know all the signs and symptoms of the major pest species that love this coastal region of the state, and we can create a precise plan of action should we detect any of the telltale signs. We’re standing by and ready for your call, and we offer free inspection services for potential customers. Give us a call today at (714) 975-5267.

Exterminator Companies

Finding the right pest extermination company is essential to your peace of mind, and unfortunately, there are companies in the So Cal area that you will want to avoid. Here are a few things to consider so that you don’t hire the wrong extermination specialists for any pest extermination or home pest protection work that you’ll need to get done in the Pacific Palisades:

• Are they eco-friendly?

• How dangerous are their chemicals?

• Do they provide free pest inspections?

• Do they offer a money-back guarantee?

• Do they have a good knowledge of the pest species that are native to the Pacific Palisades area?

Getting answers to each of these questions can ensure that you’ll hire a top-tier extermination company. Treebark works hard to meet all of these considerations, so if you need pest specialists that know the area, give us a call today at (714) 975-5267.

Free Inspection

Never wait until you detect an infestation; keeping up with what’s happening in your home is absolutely essential. For this reason, we offer a free inspection to our potential customers in the Pacific Palisades area. Remember, you may not think you’re dealing with an infestation, but unknown to you, you may have several nests on your property of various invasive insects and mammals. Also, if you own a larger property like many in the Pacific Palisades area, then it may just be nearly impossible to know what’s going on in every section of your home. Once again, a qualified extermination specialist will know where to look and understands all of the telltale signs of an infestation. Since they are experts, they can cover a lot of ground during an inspection.

Treebark offers this type of service because it’s a major convenience for homeowners to know what’s happening in their home. Also, it gives us an opportunity to help reduce the pest levels in the Southern California area. If you’re not satisfied with our results, we offer a money-back guarantee to our customers. Book an appointment today by calling (714) 975-5267 – we will get one of our extermination specialists to your home as soon as possible.

Treatments

One of the best features of getting our unique brand of extermination services is that Treebark protects your home from future incidences of reinfestation. The chief compound that our extermination specialists use is chlorantraniliprole, which is a synthetic variation of the natural compound found in ryania trees, but this eco-friendly solution does a great job at preventing invasive species like termites from running rampant throughout your home. In addition, when we treat your home with chlorantraniliprole, not only will it work for years, but it’s also very safe for both non-invasive wildlife species that may be living around your home and any children or pets that may live inside.

This synthetic chemical compound primarily attacks insects that chew, so termites, lawn grubs, and ants will all be affected. Not only will the affected insect’s mouth become paralyzed, but this same insect will carry the chlorantraniliprole back to the colony where others will have the same issues. Once it’s spread, the colony members will become paralyzed and die.

Chlorantraniliprole is completely undetectable by the chewing insect species it affects, and unlike other chemical pesticides that haven’t been naturally derived, chlorantraniliprole isn’t a compound that insects can become immune to. This means that the effects of the compound will be long lasting, and any forward scouts from colonies outside your home will become infected and will provide a tool to prevent reinfestation. For this reason, we stand by our Treebark solution; it’s very effective against many of the most annoying invasive species and opportunistic feeders.

While finding over-the-counter treatments may seem like a cheaper and quicker alternative, purchasing these also exposes you to potentially overspraying or placing dangerous chemicals in locations where children or pets may be exposed. Finally, do-it-yourself solutions don’t provide lasting results; at Treebark, our extermination specialists are dedicated to ensuring that once a pest infestation is taken care of, you won’t see more of the same pests in your Pacific Palisades home for years to come.

Additionally, chlorantraniliprole isn’t our only tool, so if you have a species of pest that’s unaffected by this compound, we can also treat your home with other options. While these may be a bit harsher, we know where to spray so that your loved ones are protected. We also have our specialists return to your home once or twice a month to ensure that the infestation is taken care of fully. We know you want to get rid of the creepy crawler invaders, so we’ll take whatever steps are needed to ensure that you’re satisfied with our output.

Do you want to speak with one of our extermination specialists? We offer free home consultations, so give us a call today at (714) 975-5267.

Organic Pest Control

Organic pest control used within the home is the safest means to eliminate pests while reducing the risk of poison exposure to children, teens, adults, and pets who are living within the residence. The center for disease control statistics have numbers that show 50 percent of the 2 million poisoning incidents that happen each year actually involve children who are younger than six years old at the time that this exposure and poisoning takes place. 90% of these unfortunate incidences happen within the very home in which the child lives. That means that harmful pesticides are either A) Chemicals are being willfully used within the home to kill pests, such as potentially deadly rat or spider killer, or B) The chemicals are being tracked in somehow from an outside source or are accidentally ingested due to chemicals not being locked up correctly within the home.

No matter how you look at it, the only effective way to completely eliminate this possibility would be to use only organic methods to kill or deter pests from entering the home. This can be done either by the homeowner creating their own pesticide or by hiring a company that can take care of your pest control needs, such as ours, any time such services are needed. Organic pest control companies go by many names. You could cal them “green” companies or eco-friendly pest control businesses, but either way, they always use all natural ingredients that are meant to do the necessary work to remove pests from a living space or work space while maintaining the health of a location.

Children are much more vulnerable to the elements than adults are. Those who are younger than teen years typically have more sensitivity to things like the effects of chemicals and illness, since they have not yet built a strong immune system like a typical adult would have developed over time. Since this is generally the case (with few and rare exceptions), children’s natural systems provide much less protection than an adult. So, while it may be less vital for an adult to breathe in many of these chemicals (though it is still unsafe even in this case), if a child is living within the home, it is highly unadvised to spray or lay down poison that they could potentially expose themselves to.

Another key statistic shows that children tend to breathe in more air than adults. Shocking, since most people might think that that would not be the case, since their lungs are considerably smaller than a full sized adult. The truth is that they simply need more oxygen for their still developing brains. This simple fact means that they are breathing in twice as much as adults, so if there is anything harmful floating around in the air, they are twice more likely to be exposed to it than adults. If you use harmful spraying chemicals, there is no doubt that they will breathe it in if used around them. Another factor is the possibility of children getting their hands on unsafe chemicals within the home, when they’re not safely locked up. 75% of homes that are in the 1 million cases mentioned in the earlier statistic had chemicals placed in unsafe or unlocked areas that were easy for children under the age of 6 to get to. Hiring a pest control company to take care of pests for you in a natural way will remove the potential of having any types of chemicals such as bug killers being stocked in the home in the first place.
