Living in the Golden State’s capital of Sacramento is full of excitement and fun. Apartment living gives people easy access to the office, games, shows, and eclectic restaurants. There is even a 28-acre waterfront area you can explore when you need to down-shift from a busy city lifestyle. Apartment living most certainly comes with some perks, but when pests come calling in your complex, you might find yourself in need of some Sacramento pest control services.
Why Is Commercial Pest Control Important For Apartment Buildings?
Have you ever heard the saying, “Sharing is Caring”? In the case of apartment living, that saying is not always true. Apartment dwellers live so close to each other that they often deal with the same smells, noise, and, most importantly, pests.
Apartments share floors, walls, wires, and utility pipes, which allow pests to travel from apartment to apartment. Area pests are pretty savvy when finding ways to enter apartment buildings, and when one apartment becomes infested, it can quickly spread to other units like wildfire. Apartment complexes have unique pest control needs that require specialized care. Property owners concerned about their reputation, investment, and renters are wise to invest in a professional pest control company like EcoTech Pest Management.
What Pests Does Commercial Pest Control Treat For?
Pests are experts when it comes to accessing buildings. They slip through cracks in foundations, crawl up pipes, come through open windows and sliding glass doors, and even ride into apartments on packages. Once they gain access, they have no trouble going door-to-door, searching for life-sustaining nutrients.
Four common pests requiring commercial pest control include the following:
- Bed bugs
- Rodents
- Cockroaches
- Termites
At EcoTech Pest Management, we know that commercial pest control is not a “one-size-fits-all” scenario. Rest assured that our company has the knowledge and tools to tackle your unique pest control needs.
The Problems Pests Can Cause In Multi-Family Dwellings
Pest control issues bring all kinds of problems to multi-family dwellings. With the proximity of multi-family homes, infestations can quickly grow to epic proportions and affect the whole building quickly.
Some problems that come with pest infestations include the following:
- Bed bugs are not known to transmit diseases, but their bites are uncomfortable. They are parasites that prefer human blood, but they have no problem affecting your pets. They reproduce rapidly and can spread throughout a whole building.
- Rodents are destructive; they shred insulation, damage wood, and even start fires by gnawing on electrical wires. Their feces and urine can affect your health, and they contaminate food and food surfaces. If that wasn’t enough, they also carry serious diseases.
- Cockroaches pick up germs on their legs and bodies as they crawl through the filth. Those germs get transferred to the surfaces around apartments. They carry bacteria, parasitic worms, and human pathogens into apartments that make people sick.
- Termites are pests that live off cellulose. A primary source of cellulose in buildings is wood. If termite infestations are left untreated, it could affect the integrity of your structure over time.
Pests can affect your livelihood and reputation. When you partner with EcoTech Pest Management, you receive quality commercial pest control that economically and environmentally protects your facility.
