What is pest control?

Definition: The regulation or management of a species defined as a pest, usually a member of the animal kingdom that impacts adversely on human activities.

A pest is an animal or plant that can affect humans, their food or their living conditions.

Pests include animals that:

• carry diseases and parasites
• Attack and eat vegetable and cereal crops
• Damage stored food.
• Attack and eat farm and station animals.
• Damage clothing
• Damage buildings
• Bite people.

Pest Control Sydney – Control of pests is essential to ensure people, their stock and food supplies are not destroyed or contaminated, and the health of humans is not put at risk.

Pest control is the control of pests and the methods taken to help reduce the number of pests to a level where the risk to people, their food and the environment is minimised.

What is the importance of pest control?

Pest control is the process of managing and eliminating pests designed to decrease pest levels. PNP pest control uses chemicals that are safe to be used around children and pets that help control, prevent and eliminate pests in residential and commercial properties. We are knowledgeable in environmental safety and our pest control programs are designed to protect and prevent pest infestations in an efficient & timely manner.

One major reason why pest control is important is for health reasons. Pests can carry serious diseases, one that we all learnt about in school is the Bubonic plague which caused the death of millions of people worldwide was carried by rats and other rodents.

Cockroaches and other pests also carry germs in their bodies that can be transmitted to people. Asthma in children has been linked to cockroach droppings.

Pests can also impact production of food supplies which is another reason why pest control is vital in agriculture.

Pests not only carry diseases that can impact your health their destruction to building structure should also be a concern to all home and business owners.

The final reason why pest control is important is simply to “keep up appearances”, who likes the sight of pests like cockroaches or rats running through their home or offices?
