Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program (PESP)

Kevin M

Our goal at 24/7 Local Pest Control is to make your outside areas enjoyable. Outdoor pests like mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas should be the least of your worries whether you're hosting a BBQ, having fun with the kids, or playing fetch with Fido. We're thrilled to announce our engagement with the Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program as a way to demonstrate our dedication to bettering the lives of our consumers.

Integrated Pest Management

The Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program encourages members to use an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach to find innovative solutions to common pest management challenges. This approach to pest management takes into consideration the life cycle of pests as well as the environment. Mosquitoes go through four life stages; egg, larvae, pupae, and adult. Once fully matured, mosquitoes are able to breed and wreak havoc. While male mosquitoes can live up to 10 days, female mosquitoes can live as long as 6 weeks. In addition to eliminating mosquitoes on contact, our treatment schedules interrupt the life cycle of mosquito populations which make treatments more effective. We also offer an all-natural treatment that aligns with the goals of Integrated Pest Management. Applied every 14 days rather than 21, this treatment option is ideal for those that seek an alternative to synthetic products.

Customer Education

A major aspect of our partnership with PESP is educating customers on the importance of mosquito, tick and flea control. While these pests are known as common nuisances, they can also pose several health risks. Vector-borne illnesses such as West Nile Virus, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Lyme disease are frequently reported throughout the summer and fall months. 24/7 Local Pest Control makes customer education a top priority to ensure the communities we serve are made aware of reported cases of vector-borne illness in their local area. Sharing tips on how to maintain an itch-free backyard provides another level of protection for yourself, your family and your pets!

24/7 Local Pest Control partnership with the Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program demonstrates the pride we take in not only making outside fun again but in working to improve the communities we serve. With our satisfaction guarantee, 24/7 Local Pest Control aims to provide an itch-free environment for our customers.
