Protects From Indoor Invaders
It doesn’t matter where you find them, kitchen, bathroom or bedroom, pests in your home are never a nice surprise.
Pests commonly found in your home include cockroaches, crickets, silverfish and fleas. Luckily for you, EcoSMART’s Home Pest Control spray kills all of these.
When you spot any of these pests in your home, spray them immediately and directly with the home pest control spray.
What happens if you don’t control this problem quickly? Let’s use silverfish as an example.
Silverfish are often found in bathrooms because they prefer areas of the home with high temperatures and humidity. However, they can start to spread through the home looking to feed.
Silverfish will eat:
- Flour
- Starch
- Glue
- Paste
- Glue substance on textiles and papers
- Cellulose fibers (like those in cloths made of rayon or polyester)
When silverfish chew through paper, they will leave irregular, yellowish holes in pages of books. Also look for notched edges on the pages. Silverfish are especially attracted to book bindings. These pests may also leave cast skins, scales or feces on books or textiles.
The bottom line is keep home pest control spray on hand to kill silverfish and other home invaders ASAP.
Kills Pests in Your Yard
Finding a home pest control spray that serves multiple functions is like finding the Holy Grail of household products. EcoSMART’s pest control for the home is just such a product.
Not only will it kill silverfish in your bathroom, but it will also tackle persistent pests in your yard.
While some insects will cause minimal damage, many pests, like carpenter ants, can be incredibly damaging to your property.
Carpenter ants damage wood structures by excavating wood to create tunnels and galleries. If carpenter ants are not controlled, structural wood will weaken, causing severe damage.
Carpenter ants can be found in:
- Rotting trees
- Tree stumps
- Logs or boards on the ground
- Wood inside buildings that is decayed from leaks, condensation or poor air circulation
If carpenter ants start chewing through wood outside your home, it may only be a matter of time before they make their way inside.
Stop them at the source with home pest control spray.
Safer to Use in Your Home Than Chemical Sprays
As you can see, pest problems can hit you unexpectedly and hard, indoors and outdoors.
You want to be prepared with a home pest control spray that is not only effective, but organic as well. Because if you use a chemical spray in your home, you’re endangering your family.
These are some if the risks of chemical pesticides use:
