Healthy Habits - Pest Control Survey

As the weather warms up and kids spend more time outside, pest control safety is top of mind for families. A new study from Modern Pest Services finds that 79% of homeowners are concerned about pest control products being harmful to children or pets.

What Parents Need to Know About Safe Pest Control:

  • Many (49%) are focusing on preventative measures like sealing gaps and cracks
  • 44% are trying natural sprays (like peppermint or neem oil)
  • 81% of gardeners prefer eco-friendly pest control methods, and 53% are switching to natural fertilizers

What should parents look for in safe pest control services? The experts at Modern Pest Services weigh in on their eco-friendly alternatives:

“The treatments themselves are designed to target the specific biology of pests—not people or pets. And once these products dry on a surface, they become stable and stay in place, which greatly reduces their potential to transfer to curious toddlers or pets.” - Dan S., Field Specialist
