    Yellowjackets were nesting under the siding of our house. Greenpest responded promptly and the alternatives - one-term service or annual contract - were clearly explained. The technician arrived exactly as scheduled and he also was very clear and polite. He sprayed the area in question and explained that it might take 7-10 days for the wasps to completely disappear. So far so good. The one-time service is guaranteed for 30 days and he will return within that period as needed.

    Sam at Green Pest Solutions is a great technician. Courteous, personable, professional. He knew his craft very well and taught me a few new things. He arrived pandemic-ready and had his boot covers ready (I just had the floors treated). Awesome guy working for a great company from what I can see so far. I’d definitely recommend them.

    At first I though the price was a bit hight but it turns out they were actually comparable to several other companies I reached out to when we noticed this was a problem that needed attending to. And on the day of the service call, the tech that arrived - Brandon - was AMAZING!!!! He arrived promptly and set about the task of inspecting the home a soon as he arrived. He was very through and helped ease my fears of poisons being left out that my child might come across. He assured me all of the traps he set were tamper proof and he was very informative about what we should be on the lookout for in between our initial appointment and the two-week follow-up. I'm very optimistic and would defiantly recommend this company to others in a heartbeat!

Pest Control in Philly

Throughout history, pests have been one of the most dangerous threats to Philadelphia. In the beginning they threatened agriculture. Faced with the possibility of losing a harvest, farmers are obligated to combat the problem.

While pesticides are the most common way to protect crops today, their side effects can be dangerous to both the environment and consumers. These dangers are magnified in a city like modern Philly. Fortunately, there are some natural alternatives that can be effective at reducing Philadelphia pest populations.

Here are some common organic pest control techniques. If these fail consider hiring a Philadelphia pest control company that uses natural techniques.

Oil Sprays

Oil sprays are designed to suffocate pests, rather than poison them. In order for them to work, the pests must be directly sprayed.

There are different types of oil sprays for different uses. Dormant oils are used to kill eggs and spores that may be found on bare branches during dormant seasons. For growing plants, lighter oils are used, since they are less damaging to plants. Here are more oils for pest control ideas.

Sticky Traps

Sticky traps are made of a rigid, colored material coated with a sticky substance. Bugs are attracted to the color and trapped when they're unable to free themselves from the sticky material. The traps are most effective when they're hung every 3 to 5 feet (at plant height) and will lose their effectiveness if they're not kept clean.

While sticky traps are available in stores, it’s also possible to make them from scratch. Different colors attract different pests, so you'll need to know what type of pest you're trying to get rid of, if you plan to make your own traps.

Pheromone Traps

Insects emit powerful scents called pheromones to attract the opposite sex. Scientists have been able to duplicate many of them for use in bait traps.

The downside of pheromone traps is that they attract primarily males, which makes them significantly less effective than sticky traps. However, they are useful as a form of early detection to let you which types of pests are moving in. Armed with this knowledge, you can choose a strategy based on which pests you expect to face.

Philly Pest Control Services

Although some pesticide use is still necessary on large farms, organic pest control techniques make it possible to minimize their use in our cities. This helps ensure that the ecosystem's natural balance is maintained. But if these fail consider a Philadelphia pest control company - research and find the best for free with Angie's List.
