Organic pest control options are available at Extermiman®.  Extermiman® uses EcoSMART® brand products.

The following comments are relayed directly from EcoSMART.

Can pesticides which are meant to be deadly to pests truly be safe to use around children, pets and the environment!

With EcoSMART, the answer is, “YES!”.Highly Targeted to Insects ONLY

First, our products have a unique mode of action that targets systems which exist in insects only. That means that our active ingredients which work on insects are harmless to mammals, birds and fish.

NO Toxic Residue

Second, all of our products leave no toxic residue and pose no exposure risk. This means that after the pest control is done, our products will not pollute ground water sources with harmful chemical residue.

100% SAFE, All-Natural Ingredients

Third, the basis of safety in our products are the ingredients themselves. All of the ingredients used in our products are either food grade and listed on the FDA GRAS (“Generally Regarded as Safe”) list or are commonly used in the food and beverage industry (this means they have no adverse effect on living organisms). No other household brand can make this claim.

Is EcoSMART as effective as conventional products?

YES! University research and field studies have proven EcoSMART’s botanical products are as effective as conventional pesticides in their ability to kill insects fast and provide effective control. EcoSMART pest control products have been used for more than a decade in professional and agricultural markets and have been proven to kill and control a broad spectrum of insects and other pests. In addition, unlike other botanical insecticides that use a single plant oil, EcoSMART’s formulas are comprised of patented plant oil blends that make the products significantly more effective against insects and other pests. Another key benefit is that, unlike many insecticides on the market, there is no known pest resistance to EcoSMART’s botanical active ingredients.

How safe are EcoSMART insecticides?

Most insecticides are required by EPA to have an extensive list of precautionary and first aid statements on their labels since they use synthetic chemicals as their active ingredient. EcoSMART products, however, don’t bear such warnings. That’s because the FDA classifies the plant oils used in EcoSMART products as “Generally Recognized As Safe” (GRAS) — the same label placed on approved foods and beverages. Additionally, the EPA classifies EcoSMART products as “Minimum-Risk” pest control products, a special category of EPA exemption offered for food grade ingredients. In fact, the active botanical ingredients found in EcoSMART products are the same ingredients commonly found in your spice rack! The EcoSMART active ingredient plant oils utilize a unique, proprietary targeted mode of action that attacks the central nervous system of insects, but have no adverse effect on humans or pets.
