Even if you don’t have a known pest infestation, you might be wondering about the reasons to hire a pest control service in Bucks and Montgomery counties. You might be aware of friends or family members that currently use pest control on an ongoing basis and you might be curious as to whether it makes sense for you.
We understand your desire to be an educated consumer and we commend you for not just wanting to jump right into something before understanding what you’re getting. That’s why we’ve put together this article. We want to share some of the reasons to hire a pest control service, even if you don’t have an existing pest problem that you’re aware of.
Then, you can decide whether pest control might be right for you.
In our opinion, one of the main reasons why you should hire pest control services (even if you don’t necessarily have a pest problem), is that you’re being proactive. Why wait until creepy crawlies have already made their way into your home before addressing the issue?
We really believe in taking steps to prevent problems before they even start.
The truth is, there are plenty of pests lurking around your home and it’s only a matter of time until one or more will make their way inside. You shouldn’t have to deal with fear or worry about what’s hiding out in your basement, in your kitchen eating crumbs at night, or even in the corners of your bedroom or other prime living spaces.
Plus, when pests do start to multiply, you’re now dealing with an infestation that could have been prevented if you stopped the problem when it was small. Once a pest problem reaches infestation mode, it can be more involved in controlling it—and damage could potentially be done by the pests in the process.
Rodents and other pests can cause structural damage to homes through their gnawing, nest-building habits, and their defecation (gross). These pests are also dirty and potentially carry diseases. It’s definitely beneficial to do what you can to prevent a problem like this in the first place.
Of the reasons to hire a pest control service, you also need to consider the fact that pests could already be lurking.
Pests are incredibly skilled at hiding, which is why they often go unknown for such a long period of time. We hate to tell people that just because they’ve never seen a pest in their home does not mean they aren’t there. In fact, it would be shocking if you did not have at least some insects somewhere in your home right now.
We’ve seen various stats on this including one study that found that the average home had 100 different species of bugs inside it at any time. This study found that homes had various species of flies, spiders, ants, and other bugs lurking without the homeowners even knowing.
That’s not to say that these pests are going to turn into an infestation. Oftentimes bugs co-exist with us and never become a major problem. But we also understand that this is not your preference. It might even give you the “heebie-jeebies” just thinking about the fact that there are pests in your home right now.
That last point leads us to the other main reason to hire a pest control service: You deserve some peace of mind.
Whether you have a known pest problem or not, you shouldn’t have to be worrying when you’re in the comfort of your own home.
Benefits of professional pest control include getting better sleep (not worrying about pests lurking) and overall improved peace of mind that you’ve taken steps to prevent a bigger problem and also get rid of pests around the home.
If one or more of these reasons to hire a pest control service resonates with you, you want to feel confident that you’re making a wise choice in pest control services.
By choosing wisely you’ll ensure that you receive the services that you expect and avoid some of the horror stories you might be fretting about—such as investing in pest control only to wind up with an infestation because it didn’t work. Or, overpaying for a bunch of extra services that you didn’t really need.
At Joshua Tree, we have your best interest at heart with our pest control services. But no matter who you end up choosing, we want you to feel confident that you’ve made a good choice. At the end of the day, that final point (peace of mind) is worth a lot to you and we want you to feel that you’ve achieved it.
Once you hire a pest control service in Bucks or Montgomery County, you should no longer have to worry about what’s lurking in or around your home. Instead, you should be able to rest assured knowing that you’re in good hands.
