Progressive Pest Program:

The foundation of our commercial program, this nine step monthly non-food handling service incorporates an I.P.M. approach to deal with most crawling insects, like ants, spiders and crickets.

This monthly twelve step program for the food handling environment incorporates an Integrated Pest Management (I.P.M.) approach and focuses on the control of crawling insects, especially the German cockroach.

This eleven step monthly program is designed to control house and drain flies from the larval through adult stages.

Working hand-in-hand, the customer & technician impose a sanitation and monthly three step correction/prevention program to control this pest and reduce product loss due to infestation.

Exclusion is at the heart of any rodent control program, followed by trapping those who have already penetrated the structure. Our premier program also eradicates the feasting insects associated with rodents and sanitizes surfaces affected by rodent urination & defecation.

This four step program addresses removal of the existing bird population, installation of mechanical exclusion/control measures and sanitation.

Available as a special one-time annual service or a monthly control & monitoring program, this six step process is designed to attack the colony where it lives and suppress ant egg production to impact future generations.

This four step control program focuses on a 100 foot radius from the "bite site," searching for conditions conducive to mosquito breeding. It is designed to control mosquitoes from the larval through adult stages. Truly Nolen's goal is to reduce the customer's mosquito population by 75%.

Fleas or ticks in the workplace? The everyday workplace is becoming more pet friendly and these feasting pests can be introduced into your business during even a brief visit.

There is a zero tolerance policy when it comes to the presence ofpestsin commercial facilities, such as schools, offices, hospitals and food processing plants. Unfortunately, the potential for infestations in commercial environments is great due to increased harborage areas and the presence of food and water.

Even though pests and rodents are small, their effect on your businesss bottom line can be enormous. Just one pest-related incident can lead to potential fines from state and federal inspection agencies, and a tarnished reputation among your current and prospective customers. Another concern is the fact that pests can pose serious risks to thehealthand safety of your employees.

The value of working with a licensedpest control companyto establish an effective commercial pest control program for your business is priceless. Not only will it give you peace of mind in knowing that you are doing your part in protecting public health, food and property from pests, but it will also allow you to focus your time and efforts on what matters most to your business providing outstanding service to your customers.

We have had many service technicians out at our house for the last 18 months doing routine service calls. Every one of them has provided excellent customer service. However, I would like to point out that Collin provided superior customer service at a time when we desperately needed reassurance that our house was protected from mice. He carefully went over our garage attic space and our basement crawl space and reported no signs of current mice activity in our house. I was so relieved that we chose your company to protect our house. Your inspector reaffirmed what we knew to be true. Were moving on soon to another state, but hopefully your company will continue to expand and we can do business again in the future. Kim & Derrick W. Pest Control Customer in Chicago

I was initially skeptical about their service and what they had to say about their product but for some reason I thought that the organic option might be a better option to try out than those nasty chemical options. We gave it a shot and were really happy that we picked Greenix to be our pest control vendor. They even backed up their service by following up on a timely basis and even doing free service calls if for some reason we saw something different in terms of bugs and insects. I am very pleased with their service and would happily recommend them to anyone of my friends and family!!! Y. Shah Pest Control Customer in Salt Lake City

Punctual, Reliable, and True to Word. We recently had a terrible flea problem that escelated right under our noses. Before we knew it it was completely out of control but having a new infant in the house I had been reluctant to have chemicals in the house. After talking with Brent though he really put my worries at ease and promised they would be out until the problem was resolved and at the set price, no hidden fees. Boy did they. I think they came out 5 times that first month, steam cleaned the carpets 3 times, and just gave it so much attention, follow up calls, punctual for EVERY appointment if not early. I was seriously impressed and so thankful. The problem is cleared up now and we are doing the quarterly service and as a nice perk now I see practically no spiders or other gross creepy crawlies! HIGHLY recommend this company. J. Kittrell Pest Control Customer in Dublin Ohio

Increased use of brodifacoum poison in Southland prompts a timely reminder for hunters to be aware of where they are taking their wild game from. Nicole Sharpreports.

Hunters should not take animal carcasses for human consumption from areas where brodifacoum poison is used, the National Pest Control Agencies say.

Brodifacoum poison is an anti-coagulant chemical.

If ingested by animals, including humans, it inhibits blood clotting, causing death from internal bleeding.

Brodifacoum is a predominant toxin used in Environment Southland possum control areas (PCAs) by both farmers and contractors in Southland.

The National Pest Control Agencies factsheet on the poison states commercial hunters cannot hunt wild animals for consumption in areas where the poisons have been laid, including the buffer zones, until the specified caution period of three years has elapsed.

The buffer zone is within 5km of the poisoning area for pigs and within 2km of the poisoning area for large species such as deer.

The same buffer zones and caution periods are also recommended for recreational hunters.

Environment Southland senior biosecurity officer Dave Burgess said it was a legal requirement that wild animals could not be taken for ''commercial markets''.

When setting up a new PCA, Environment Southland now included this in the discussions with landowners.

When it came to farm animals, they should not have access to brodifacoum bait or bait stations, Mr Burgess said.

''They normally get this information at least twice in the first two years.''

Brodifacoum was a predominant toxin used for Environment Southland PCAs by farmers and their contractors that had bait stations, he said.

''It is also a common bait sold over the counter and online to the general public for both rodent and possum control.''

Along with the poison, a warning sign was required to be erected at normal points of public entry to any area/property where it was being used, he said.

''These signs must stay up for at least nine months after baiting has ceased. In the case of properties which are part of our PCA programme, we supply farmers with appropriate warning signs.''

The Department of Conservation took a precautionary approach to using brodifacoum.

DOC Murihiku operations manager Tony Preston said current policy allowed the poison to be used on off-shore islands for operations such as one-off rodent eradication projects.

''However, on mainland public conservation land, brodifacoum is not a common pesticide used on public conservation land by the department or community groups, due to environment and bio-accumulative concerns,'' he said.

When it was used, signs notifying the public were required to be in place for up to 36 months after the pesticide application, he said.

Trapping and cyanide were other common ways of controlling pests and in PCAs in Southland the decision was up to the landowner, Mr Burgess said.

''For those with bait stations, brodifacoum is a very efficient and cost-effective possum control tool which doesn't require a licence, but must be used according to best practice and label. It is/has provided extensive biodiversity gains throughout the country for many years. There is little/no poison shyness due to its slow action of working.''

Brodifacoum could be bought over the counter without a licence, he said.

It must be used in a bait station and label instructions must be followed.

There are industry guidelines for bait station use, which, along with the label, can be found on the National Pest Control Agencies' and/or Animal Control Products' websites.

Hunters warned to observe rules for poison areas - Otago Daily Times

A county researcher sorts mosquitoes in Dallas.LM Otero/AP

Over six days, Hurricane Harvey dumped an estimated 27 trillion gallons of rain over Texas and Louisiana. (Houston got almost 52 inches.) The storm displaced an estimated 35,000 people and knocked out power to 224,000 homes. At least 100,000 homes were flooded, many to the point where they are no longer liveable. Private wells are tainted by toxins, and there are still concerns about the safety of the regions tapwater. Rebuilding could take years, and not everyone can afford it.

And now, to top it all off, the good citizens of Houston may have to contend with swarms of disease-carrying bloodsuckers.

Chris Barker, an epidemiologist and mosquito expert at the University of California-Davis, points out that severe flooding in urban areas creates an initial flushing effect that reduces mosquito populations for a short time. Mosquitoes dont like moving water because [the larvae] breathe through the surface of the water, and they need to stay stationary, essentially, he explains. But all the stagnant water left behind by an epic storm like Harvey enables the mosquitoes to surge back stronger than ever. You can imagine that creates a lot of habitat, Barker says.

Houston already rankedseventh on Orkins 2017 list of the Top 50 Mosquito Citiesbased on the number of residential and commercial customers who hired the pest-control company to address their mosquito problems. And more mosquitoes mean more potential for disease. The Aedes mosquitoeswhich can breed in containers of water as small as a bottle cap and have the capacity to spread viruses including Zika, dengue, and chikungunyaare quite prevalent in the Houston area, Barker says. But they can only spread these viruses after biting the rare peoplepresumably travelerswho are already infected. (Storm-battered Puerto Rico will have more to fear from Zika and dengue in the wake of Hurricane Irma.) In the Houston area at the moment, Barker says, the No. 1 virus of concern would be West Nile.

Thats because Culex mosquitoes pick upWest Nile from birdsa permanent natural reservoir for the virusbefore spreading it to people through their saliva. And unlike Aedes mosquitoes, Culex can travel far, maybe 5 to 10 kilometers, so they have the ability to colonize new areas relatively quickly, Barker says.

Even at the peak of past West Nile outbreaks, only a small proportion of the Culex mosquitoesperhaps 1 in 100were found to be infectious, says Lark Coffey, who studies mosquito-borne viruses at UC-Davis. But when these mosquitoes hatch out in unusually large numbers, West Nile cases surge.

Last year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Texas reported 353 West Nile infections17 percent of all US casesresulting in 13 deaths. This years numbers are lower: Just 48 infections and 2 deaths were reportedin Texas as of August 29. But Harvey could change that.

The good news is that fall is approaching, so mosquito season should wane before too long. But heres the bad: Given the extensive flood damage, hundreds of backyard swimming pools and other prime breeding spots in close proximity to humans will be filled with filthy water and are likely go unmaintained. That could bring some pretty large mosquito populations compared to normal, Barker says.

This explosion of breeding sites could present a major headache for Harris Countys mosquito-control personnel. Temperatures in Houston are expected to remain in the high 80s for at least the next week or two. Culex mosquitoes lay their eggs in small rafts on the surface of open water and the eggs hatch within a few days. In the warmest temperatures, Barker says, it would take about a week for those to become adults and begin biting people.
