Green Pest Control

Pest control isn’t always a simple task that can be remedied by yourself with store-bought products; especially if you live in an area of the country where pests are much more threatening than your average ant or household insect. But while pest control options are varied and easily available regardless of the region you live, pest control services rarely use a green approach to the job. While so many families are realizing the importance of going green and are taking small, and in some cases, big steps to reduce their family’s carbon footprint, families expect the services that they pay for to be as cautious as they are.

So while most pest control services are still turning a blind eye to going green, there is one company that has the same go-green mindset as you and your family and use that mindset for their pest control. They are available in many locations where their services are needed most.

Alpha Ecological Alpha Ecological cares about the environment and they care about the products that they use in your home, workplace and other areas where their services are needed. For more than 20 years, they been ridding pests from areas where you don’t want to see them and they are using a more sophisticated and scientific approach than other, traditional exterminators; they take advantage of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). They use green pest control solutions to eliminate pests and also reduce your exposure to pest control products; they correct conducive conditions, mechanical or pesticide-free items such as traps and general pest-proofing materials such as screens, caulking and door sweeps.

    I just started learning about green pest control methods the other day. A friend told me that you can use cayenne pepper to get rid of lots of creatures. I guess both ants and rabbits hate the stuff. Much better than using chemicals. Thanks for spreading the word.

  • There are definitely possibilities for organic and non toxic termite control. Some companies are using orange oil termite control because consumers are demanding natural and non chemical solutions to every day household maintenance.

  • I couldn’t agree more. Each household is vulnerable to pest attack and every possible and desirable way to eliminate them is a must. Green pest control is certainly not a bad idea and in fact is desirable. People should realize that pests are easy to terminate and fact is, we all have the capability to do it by ourselves.

  • It’s awesome to find other pest control companies across the country that use Integrated Pest Management and are going green! It’s so important to find a company that is not only green, but also takes the time to listen to their customers to help them find solutions.

  • Many people do not realize they are impacting the size of their carbon footprint at all especially when it comes to things like pest control.

  • Yea, pest control is being marketed all over the place in the realm of “green products” “ecological” “child-safe”, but the reality is that a lot of these companies are not using green products. Most companies should be transitioning over to eco-friendly products…
