Organic Pest Control

What is organic pest Control?

All natural and organic pest control

Organic can mean a lot difference things to different people and industries.  For Verdant organic is the implementation of products made with essential oils such as rosemary oil, wintergreen, peppermint oil,  geraniol oil, thyme oil and even products like pyrethrin since these are derived from plants as well.  Other ingredients could be fungi such as abamectin.

Can you treat all pests with organics?

Verdant Pest Control

No.  Some pests still need traditional pest control methods for successful control.  Some pests that we believe are better left to traditional methods would be bed bugs, termites and mice.  

Do organics work as well as other products?

All natural and organic pest control

Yes.  When used correctly control is just as good and some situation better.  Since organic products tend to be odorous they repel better than traditional pesticides.

Rub marks from rodents

Quit greasing up my walls mice!

These dirty spots are “rub marks” left behind from rodents, in this case it was mice. The oil from the rodent’s fur will rub off on the surfaces they frequently travel and squeeze thru. Over time it leaves this residue that can often be mistaken as dirt, water or some other stain. When you know what to look for then the big picture becomes more clear on how rodents are traveling and getting inside your structure.

Doorsweeps and why they are important

Doorsweeps are an important tool in aiding in keeping mice, rats and insects from getting inside a structure.  The gap under your front door is often large enough for many pests to sneak their way inside.  Installing a doorsweep will help prevent pests from using your front door as, well…a front door.  There is a range of different doorsweeps available on the market today and with a couple simple tools you can install these yourself.  Of course, this is a service we offer and is something we do quiet often.   If you need a doorsweep installed all you have to do is ask and we’ll get your doors secured against unwanted house guests.

Mouse Exclusion

Mouse Exclusion

When it comes to mouse exclusion I have mixed feelings.  Of course if you can locate the entry points and seal them you will effectively stop rodents from traveling through this space.   The trick is to locate all the ways these fury creatures gain entry into your home or business.  It is not always so easy or obvious.  Commercial spaces are constantly being renovated with additions made, walls torn down and put back up and a plethora of on-the-fly adjustments to get a project finished in time for the grand opening.  In residential settings you often find additions like 4-season porches have been added or the garage was extended.  While its lovely to have more space it also creates vulnerable cracks, gaps and spaces that mice will take advantage of.  Once construction is completed it is difficult to pin point where the access points could be.

Bad-news is not always the case when dealing with rodent entry points.  Sometimes you get what I like to call as the “smoking gun” spot.  It’s obvious when you find it.  It’s the “ah ha” moment when the whole thing makes sense.  These are the magical areas i’m constantly on the lookout for.  The irrefutable entry ways that mice are definitely using.   It may not be the only source of travel for them but you know by sealing up this one you will be making a major blow to their entire operation.  The picture here is one of those moments.  Along the wall is a crack…well more of a space that is allow mice to scurry between the floor.  This space is by design, it’s not a problem with construction but left there to allow the floor to move a little with the changing of temperatures.   However, something needs to be done to stop the pathway from mickey’s clubhouse.  These hairballs have caused too much grief and became too comfortable that intervention is needed.  We can’t have pests around food or customers and measures needed to be taken to stop the flow of mice into the restaurant.

Squirrels In CT Are Dangerous

February into March we start to see an uptick in squirrel activity. Specifically invading homes and making nests to start rearing young. In the process they tear up insulation, chew wires, deposit urine and feces and basically make a mess of the space they inhabited. Getting to the problem early makes control easier, more effective at times and can prevent future damage during the eviction process. If you suspect squirrels or any other pest in your home don’t delay and give us a call for a free inspection.

Wires chewed from rodents

Rodents Chew Wires, Duh.

Seems obvious to say that rodents like mice and rats as well as squirrels chew electrical wires.  It’s always worth bringing up especially when you can see damage first hand and how serious of a problem it can become.  Packing leaf litter, fabrics and whatever else they can find to make a nest with inside of a wall makes for a dangerous concoction when they begin to snack on the wires supplying electricity to your home.  Pest control isn’t just about remediating your current problems but also preventing them from ever becoming a problem again.  Pest control not only can protect yourself and others from viruses, bacteria and allergens but also will also protect your hard earned investments like your home.
