Pest Control Professional? More Like Home Doctor!

When you think of pest control professionals, you probably see them as a solution to a problem. Technically, that’s true. When rodents or insects are an issue, the services they offer can be the answer.
But that isn’t all a pest control professional is. In many ways, these specialists are more like home doctors. Their goal isn’t just to rid your property of a pest, but to make your house healthy.
If you’d like to learn more about how pest control professionals are more like home doctors, here’s what you need to know.
It All Starts with a Patient History
When a pest control professional arrives at your home, the first step they take is to learn more about the problem. They talk with the homeowner to learn more about the insects or rodents that are creating the illness. Additionally, they get details about the symptoms, which can be incredibly important if the homeowner isn’t sure what kind of pest is present.
Completing a Pest Control Diagnostic
With the initial information in hand, it’s time to find out the cause of the issue. A pest control specialist will perform a thorough exam, assessing the evidence and the symptoms. Their goal during this phase is to determine the nature of the home’s illness, not unlike a doctor figuring out what’s going wrong when a person isn’t well.
Pest Control Professional Prescribed Treatment
After a diagnosis is made, it’s time for treatment. Since the pest control professional now understands the nature of the illness, they can choose a course of action. This may include medications in the form of pesticide or rodenticide. Additionally, it could involve excising the problem by removing harborage, just as a doctor would cut out a tumor, or performing house surgery by doing necessary repairs.
Physicals, Checkups, and Maintenance Meds
Once the acute illness is handled, that doesn’t mean the house doctor’s work is done. Instead, pest control professionals can do more to ensure your home’s long-term health.
For example, regular maintenance and checkups can be used to keep a problem from recurring. This can include maintenance medicines in the form of pest prevention products that are designed to stop insects or rodents from making a house ill again.
As you can see, a pest control professional isn’t just a problem-solver. They are also a home doctor who strives to do everything they can to keep your house healthy and free of illnesses. That way, both you and your home can remain in the best shape possible.

Hiring pest control professionals, doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t know what you’re up against. No one knows your home,

I've been having issues with pests in my home, and I'm not sure what to do about it. It makes sense that I would want to get a pest control specialist to help me out with this! It's interesting that they can function like a doctor for your home.

It was fascinating to know that a pest control professional can determine the best course of action based on the diagnosis made. I can notice signs of termite infestation in my home. I think it's time to call a termite control professional to get rid of them completely.

Indeed. Because it needs experience and skill to finish the task, which is not ideally on everyone.

It is hard for me to do pest management on my own. I can't do extermination, I just felt guilty perhaps. So it is good to have professionals help.

Thanks for helping me understand that the professionals will assess the evidence, do a thorough exam, and check the symptoms in our home before they determine the issue in our home. I actually think we already have a rodent problem after noticing the droppings in the garage and near the kitchen. So I hope to hire a rat control service before they even contaminate our food and affect our health.
