Eco-Friendly Pest Control Services

As a family-owned company, we pride ourselves on using materials with the least environmental impact. Along with our standard products and services we also offer pet and family friendly green products.

EcoGuard uses integrated pest management (IPM) methods to ensure that our company doesn't solely rely on chemical pesticides as a pest control solution. We are licensed and trained in how to effectively and efficiently use a mix of different treatment strategies that help reduce our reliance on standard insecticides and rodenticides.

What is Eco-Friendly Pest Control?

Eco-friendly pest management utilizes an integrated pest management approach designed to successfully reduce pest populations while also minimizing potentially dangerous impacts on people and the environment. Its multifaceted approach makes it more effective against pest populations because pests are being targeted from multiple directions making it difficult for populations to grow into infestations.

During the assessment, the best treatment options will be determined. We focus on target areas and only use enough product to ensure that the pest problem is eliminated. Once a pest population is effectively exterminated, preventative measures and on-going maintenance will help prevent further heavy application.

The Importance of Eco-Friendly Pest Control

Being exposed to harsh pesticides that contain dangerous chemicals is never recommended so substituting green pest control products is a safe alternative. Our all natural service option uses pesticides that are designed to use essential oils from plants, to help mitigate specific pest populations. In addition to pesticides, we also implement natural bio pesticides, growth reduction strategies, and beneficial organisms.

How We Use IPM to Keep Pests Away

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an ecosystem-based strategy that focuses on long term prevention of pests and their damage through a combination of techniques such as biological control, habitat manipulation, modification of cultural practices, and use of resistant varieties. Pesticides are used only after monitoring indicates they are needed according to established guidelines, and treatments are made with the goal of removing only the target organism.

EcoGuard uses IPM as the foundation of our practice and we ensure that each application has been calculated and mixed to stay within the guidelines as outlined by the state of California. We also emphasize the importance of preventative practices and ongoing monitoring to ensure early detection.

Essentria Product Details

EcoGuard Pest Management is a leader in natural pest control application. The products that complement our IPM strategy are natural and made with essential oils extracted from beneficial plants.

Essentria is based on botanical actives and is a 25(b) minimum risk insecticide. It does not require a re-entry period, making it perfect for treating accounts with a lot of human activity such as schools, day care facilities, and commercial establishments. Essentria is NOP (National Organic Program) compliant, making it the product of choice for operators treating organic facilities of all types.

Essentria has no aquatic toxicity, therefore applications may be made near or over open water. This allows for the mitigation of spiders around boat docks and marinas, and thorough mosquito abatement treatments in areas where foliage runs adjacent to bodies of water.
