When bugs and animals come into our yards and get into our homes they can create problems. But the solution shouldn't create a bigger problem. That is why the team here at All-American Pest Control puts an emphasis on Green Pest Control. Let's take a look at what Green Pest Control is and how it meets that challenge of protecting Nashville homes and Nashville families.

What Is Green Pest Control?

It is a process by which pest problems are solved using biological control, habitat manipulation, modification of cultural practices, and the use of resistant varieties. When a pest control issue cannot be solved by natural means, a use of EPA-approved, least-toxic products is considered.

Green Pest Control Options Available

  • Termites: The Sentricon® System with Always Active™ is a bait system that targets termites and only termites. When subterranean termites come up from the ground to destroy a home, they find the bait in the Sentricon® System, ingest it, and then share it with their colony. When they do, the colony dies.

  • Ants: Baits don't just work for termites, they are a powerful pest control option for ants as well. When ants become a problem, spraying those ants with chemicals isn't the solution. Baits get to the heart of the issue and destroy the colonies that are sending those ants.

  • Mosquitoes: There are many insects that spread illnesses, such as mosquitoes, cockroaches, ticks, fleas, and even some ant species. Essentria™ is our go to product for stopping these insects. It blocks the neurotransmitters that are essential for their survival, without impacting people, pests, birds, or fish.  

  • General Insects: There are many insects that invade our homes, destroy our belongings, and eat away at our equity. Often, borate-based solutions are the best course of action. Insects don't have the ability to process excess Boron like humans, pets, and other mammals. This makes the use of borates perfect for the targeted control of unwanted insect pests.

At All-American, we're tough on bugs--not the environment. We don't just work in Nashville, we raise our families in Nashville, and our goal is to keep our communities free of harmful toxins.
