We
believe that for too many years man has broadcast insecticides
into the environment with too little regard for the consequences.
As a result of this overuse of these broad spectrum insecticide
products, we now have:
Greater insect resistance
Groundwater contamination
Ecosystems out of balance, with natural
predators and parasites being killed off along with insect pests
And, some would argue, a greater incidence
of some diseases
We
believe the correct way to do pest control is with the smallest
environmental impact possible. This requires us to:
Target the pests while leaving
the pests’ natural enemies alone
Use the least toxic products
and methods available
Use insects’ natural
behaviors to enhance the program’s effectiveness
Minimize human and non-target
animal exposure to chemicals whenever practical
Avoid putting chemicals into
the air or ground water
To
put this philosophy into action, we have developed a line of pest
control bait products that use active ingredients that have extremely low
toxicity.
We
have also developed and patented a number of bait delivery systems
that can increase the effective life of the bait materials and reduce
or eliminate environmental contamination.
