Services/Products/IPM Description
Range of Products and Services
Lady Bug provides environmentally responsible pest control by using a natural material inside your home, called diatomaceous earth. We inject it into the cracks and crevices where pests hide and it is inaccessible to children and pets. We use baits and other more responsible products as well as incorporating Integrated Pest Management (IPM) techniques of good inspections, improved sanitation, and sealing the structure to minimize pest entry.
