Pest Control & Management
Pest Control Solutions
Pests pose serious risks to families and workers’ health, and your property’s safety. Pest control is as old as civilization, recorded as early as 3000BC in Egypt where cats were used to protect grain stores from rodents, or in 2500BC when Sumerians used Sulphur compounds as insecticides (chemical control), or in 300AD when the Chinese used weaver ant colonies to control beetles and caterpillars in their citrus plantations (biological control).
