So, this is a site about, well, you know, insects and vegetation. That is what they are. To paraphrase Emerson: "Weeds are plants whose usefullnes we have not yet determined." For our purposes, bugs are things that bug us. They are often insects, sometimes arachnids, and sometimes other things. Some insects are beneficial, but even these become bugs to us when they get into the wrong place at the wrong time. PreventionPest prevention is the ultimate form of pest control, it needs no chemicals, or even organic or natural pesticides, or the energy to manufacture, package, store, or ship them! It has long range environmental implications for the way we view pest control. For far too long prevention as a means of dealing with pests, has been virtually ignored. One of the reasons seems to be the same reason why over the counter and prescription medications are so popular. They treat the symptoms. That is not to say that you shouldn't stop your headache, but that you should try to determine what a recurring headache is resulting from. Much, but not all, of our chemical pest control is used to treat symptoms. I can say this from years of experience as a pest control operator, and extensive involvement in agriculture and horticulture. Sometimes, the result of the symptoms is so bad, that the symptoms must be treated before the real problem can be dealt with. What is needed is a pest prevention system, simple enough to use, and thorough enough to work. That is what we offer. We spend a lot of time and money trying to control pests, we spend a lot of effort on control, but there is something better, and that is a big part of what this site is about. Prevention! If you will read these pages, and follow these suggestions, you will be well on your way to being as pest free as humanly possible, at a lot less cost! Our prevention pages are arranged so that you can move from one to the other in sequence, and find a little bit of theory, and a lot of down to earth, practical help in preventing pests. Each section is followed by a section called "Just The Facts" which gives a simple list of the ideas contained in the previous pages, and tips to help get it done! There is a full navigation bar on each page to every other page, plus there is a single link at the bottom of each page to the next page in the sequence.
