4 Reasons To Avoid Do-It-Yourself Pest Control
However, DIY does have its downsides. This method is ideal for non-hazardous situations, such as painting your own walls or landscaping your lawn. DIY is not recommended for situations that can be potentially dangerous or deadly.
For this reason, when it comes to thorough pest control, we highly advise you to seek out the advice and expertise of a pest management professional. Without the right knowledge on effective pest control methods, a homeowner can contaminate their household or unknowingly worsen their pest infestation.

DIY Offers A Short-Term Solution
DIY pest control sprays are only a temporary solution to a much larger problem. Home concoctions and over-the-counter pesticides only encourage pests to hide deeper within walls, cracks, and crevices. Here, the hidden bugs will continue to feed and reproduce, leading to even larger pest populations than before.
May Incorrectly Identify The Pest
Each pest has its own habits, growth cycle, and behaviors. Because of this, it is imperative to correctly identify the pest you are tackling. Accurate pest identification can help you understand which pest control method will work best.
Knowledge of common North Central Florida pests is helpful when determining the source of an infestation. Rather than only spot killing insects, our professional pest control technicians can address insects at their source. Our team of skilled pest specialists are trained to attack pests directly at their colony or nest in order to swiftly eliminate your problem.

Bugs May Be Resistant To Over-The-Counter Pesticides
Because they are commonly used, it is easy for common household pests to quickly develop a resistance to over-the-counter pesticides. This can make your traditional ant and roach sprays ineffective.
Due to this, a more potent pesticide may be needed to see results. EPA- approved professional pesticides offer this strength; however, they require a professional license or certification in order to handle them. At Champion Termite & Pest Control, our technicians hold multiple up-to-date certifications that allow them to expertly apply these pesticides on your property.

May Misread Labels & Instructions
Most homeowners have a tendency to quickly skim through product labels and instructions. This habit can be seriously hazardous if products are applied incorrectly or in excess. Too much of a dust pesticide, for instance, can easily lead to residents breathing in the material. This can potentially lead to breathing problems and respiratory issues.
When applying pesticides, all labels and instructions must be followed to the letter. At Champion Termite & Pest Control, you can depend on our technicians to completely read and follow through with all product details.
