Service Process
TelusCare
Portal offers a wide range of technical processes for eradicating the pest.
1.
Biological
Pest Control: Biological pest control is the most natural method known
today. It efficiently reduces the number of pests without leaving any
consequences for the rest of the environment. This treatment works by putting
substances such as bacteria which kills pests (e.g. mosquitoes) in water
sources while still being safe for humans to drink. The goal of biological
pest control is to complete the task of killing the dangerous species without
affecting any other aspect of nature.
2.
Mechanical
Pest Control: This method includes the use of equipment as well as devices
to get the job done. The most often used technique is creating a protective
barrier between the plant and the insect. This is closely related to the
physical pest control method which removes and attacks the pests and thus
prevents their spreading and further destruction of the plant. The key to
protecting the property from these dangerous species is removing anything that
would lead to spreading the pests.
3.
Poisoned
Bait: Going from insects to rodents, a pest control method used for
this species is often the poisoned bait. However, there is a dangerous side to
this very effective method. By feeding rats the poisoned meat you will surely
get rid of them. However, you’re risking if any larger animal eats the meat,
they will get infected. People have died from contact with the meat or eating
the animal who previously had eaten the same poisoned meat. This method, even
though very efficient, is not to be messed with.
4.
Pesticides: Pesticides are the most common pest control method
which can be done by anyone. They are very simple to use, especially the ones
which come in a spray. However, some of these substances may cause cancer and
are very harmful to the environment.
5.
Traps: You must have used traps to catch mice and rodents.
They are one of the safest pest control methods. While some traps kill the pest
as soon as it comes in contact with it, others keep them alive and allow you to
remove them from your property.
6.
Natural
Repellents: Rather than purchasing chemical-laden insect repellent products from the market you can consider using
natural insect repellents. For example, adding Mosquito repellent plants to
your garden can keep away mosquitoes from entering your home. The application of
certain oils such as citronella oil also keeps away pests from getting in
contact with your skin. These essential oils are also useful as pest
repellents.
