Welcome
to the
Safety
Source for Pest Management
Are
you looking for a pest management company that can take care of a pest
problem safely without using dangerous pesticides?
It is difficult
in today's marketplace to sort through the safety claims and the meaning
behind words such as "safe" or "harmless." Because of this, we have put
together a growing directory of companies that
are interested in providing the services you want, without poisoning you,
your family, or the environment. The directory is intended to be used for
pest problems in homes, commercial sites, schools, parks, golf courses,
and more.
Before
you use this directory, a word of caution.
Companies are listed in the Safety Source for Pest
Management because they have completed the Beyond Pesticides survey
and indicated that they use one or more practices and/or materials that
we categorize as "non-toxic"
or "least-toxic."
We include in this directory the companies' survey responses in their
own words so that you can see them for yourself. Many of the companies
in the directory operate businesses that we consider "mixed operations"
because they may also use products that we classify as "toxic."
As a customer, you must
talk with the service provider about the products that they use,
inform yourself on their potential to cause adverse effects, and decide
what makes sense for you.
This directory
provides a number of links that should provide you with assistance. If
a service indicates the use of a pesticide product, the directory provides
a link to a factsheet on the product's active ingredient.
