Have you ever used pest control services before? Some people are fortunate enough to not have a pest control problem that requires professional attention. For others, such services are the best way to keep their homes pest-free. It’s not unusual for homeowners to seek support in those efforts. Despite how common pest control services are, there are plenty of misconceptions surrounding pest control.

You’re good if you don’t see any pests in your home, right? Maybe. Then again, maybe not. You don’t have to see pests to have a pest problem. There are plenty of pests, especially certain bugs, that could live in your home without you knowing until they’ve done significant damage. These pests can also spread disease, which means both you and your home could be at risk. Be on the lookout for more than just the pests themselves.

DIY pest control methods can be great for taking care of pests that you can see. They may even work for very minor infestations. That said, they require a lot of effort on your part and may not be as effective as you need them to be. That’s where professional pest control services like Proterra Pest Control come in. Our comprehensive professional pest control methods help you keep your home pest-free throughout the year.

Toxic pesticides are a significant concern for many, but especially for those who have children or pets.
