But between chemical pesticides and ultrasonic pest repellents, which ones work best with pest control?
Chemical Pesticide Solutions
There is a huge range of chemical based pet control products on the market. These are cost effective, cheap, and are widely available and accessible HOWEVER – we strongly suggest if you’re wanting to go down this track, you book an appointment for us to handle this for you.
Chemical pesticides can be helpful in making quick and effortless solutions to your pest problems but you have to ensure you follow instructions carefully and place them in strategic areas that are out of reach by pets, children, and anyone that could mistake it for something else. Aside from being accessible, commercial chemical pesticides come in many different forms. They come in the form of aerosol sprays, liquids, herbicides (sprayed on plants that pests eat), and chemicals that are mixed with food (not mixed with human or pet food) that they usually like to snack on. We only use safe products.
Ultrasonic Pest Repellent
The ultrasonic pest repellent has the ability to drive away unwanted companions such as rats, cockroaches, and etc. This type of pest repellent make use of sound waves to protect your home from these pests. By emitting high-frequency ultrasonic sound waves that humans can’t hear, it can put off pests from going near your property. Despite its powerful effect, it is safe to use around your family and pets as it does not contain any hazardous chemicals. Members of your households, including your furry friends, are guaranteed to be undisturbed by these sound waves. Some people claim they work really well, other’s have found them ineffective in the eradication of pests from around the house. It doesn’t kill rodents and other pests, it is aimed at providing an inhospitable environment that in theory, they won’t want to live near by to.
