Many companies use only one way to treat for pests regardless of the situation. This can be very damaging to the environment and it can actually increase the pest populations. Pests can become resistant to pesticides that are used continually. And the added residues of the pesticides can reach unsafe levels.

The responsible applicator will use a wide range of methods, tactics, and products to control pests and keep people and the environment safe. Botanicals are great products to use, but they might not be the best products to use every time. Pyrethroids are excellent products to use, but they might not be the best products to use every time, either. The responsible applicator determines the right method, the right tactic, and the right product to use for each particular decision.

Every ecosystem has a balance. Pest control should be very site-specific. When determining how to treat pests and prevent them from invading, the following are some of the factors that we consider: Safety, Effectiveness, Environmental Impact, Non-target Creatures, Location, Equipment Used, Mode of Treatment, Formulations, Amounts, Frequency, Laws & Regulations, etc...

At Jitterbug Pest Control, we strive to be responsible. We will use programs that are site-specific, that control pests while being aware of all risks to the environment. Jitterbug uses safe pest control options in Utah homes and businesses.
