1) If you don’t see pests – you don’t have a pest problem. This is also called day dreaming.
2) Out of sight, out of mind. The pests that are hard to see or spot tend to be the toughest to get rid of.
3) Apply bug spray when the sun goes down. When you up and about, so are they.
4) Cockroaches and bedbugs only live in dirty homes. Although these insects may prefer dirty and unsanitary places, they can thrive in clean places if they have access to food (including blood).
4) Cheese is effective bait for mice and rats. Yes, but there preference is for sugary foods such as peanut butter, cookies, and cereal.
6) Cats are the best pest control for rodents. Most cats are feed enough to keep the hunting genes at bay.
7) Ultrasonic repellants are safe and effective. No, the only thing that they are effective at is making money for the retailer.
8) Clean homes do not have pests. Bed bugs, cockroaches, ants, and rats can survive in spotlessly clean homes, just as long as they have a food source.
9) Mice and Rats are filthy. Rodents keep themselves shockingly clean, although they do carry a variety of illnesses.
10) Chestnuts keep the spiders away. Scientists have confirmed that this is only true at the current residence where Elvis Presley lives.
11) Retail stores have everything you need to get rid of your pests. Everyone wants to see if they can control their own pest infestation. Retail stores can be a good start, but in many cases these retail remedies exasperate the problem. Our government limits the strength, quantity and variety of chemicals available to retailers. Your local professional pest control operator is educated, licenced and insured to use the appropriate chemicals in limited and an effective manner using the integrated pest management technics.
