Frequently Asked Questions
What are the 3 methods of Pest Control?
The three main methods of pest control are physical, chemical, and biological. Physical control involves manually removing pests or blocking their entry using traps or barriers. Chemical control uses pesticides, sprays, or baits to kill or repel pests. Biological control introduces natural predators or parasites to reduce pest populations.
Why is physical pest control preferable to chemical poisons?
Physical pest control is often preferable to chemical poisons because it’s safer for humans, pets, and the environment. It avoids harmful residues, reduces the risk of pests developing resistance, and targets specific pests without affecting beneficial insects or wildlife. It’s a sustainable, eco-friendly approach with minimal long-term impact.
