9/18/2007 EcoWise Certified has granted Hearts Pest Management its’ very first certification outside the San Francisco Bay Area.
EcoWise Certifiied was founded by an association of Bay Area government agencies, in an effort to preserve water quality and due to other environmental issues related to pesticide usage. The association encourages a progressive, integrated pest management (I.P.M) approach to pest control, that focuses on inspection, prevention, communication and partnership. Treatments are handled in a least invasive manner. Materials used in treatment are reviewed by the EcoWise organization for toxicity issues. Organic labels are highly encouraged, with a reasonable understanding that more aggressive treatments are sometimes needed after careful review.
EcoWise certification does not signify that all company services are “EcoWise Certified services,” rather that you can purchase certain services provided in a manner that is fully EcoWise Certified compliant and that the company has practices, procedures and standards in place that have been reviewed and approved by the certifing organization. Use the above link for more information about EcoWise Certified.
Hearts Pest Management is thrilled that it can not bring EcoWise Certified green pest control to millions of families in Southern and Central California.

4/2006 A case of bubonic plague was diagnosed in Los Angeles County. The source of infection was a bite from a flea infected by dead rodents or rats. Bubonic plague is a serious, though non-contagious disease. If the symptoms are not properly identified and treated, the condition can evolve into pneumonic plague, which is airborne and transmits from person to person. Can this happen is San Diego and Riverside County? Without resorting to hysteria, the answer is yes! The best response is prevention. If you are hearing sounds in your attic or “If your walls are talking” to you, contact us for a rodent inspection. Visit our rodent and parasite web pages for more information.

Micro-injection delivers systemic antibiotics, fungicides, insecticides and mineral nutrients, directly into a tree without any contact with the environment, thereby protecting groundwater and air quality. Direct systemic injection also means that every drop is efficiently going to treat and nourish the tree, compared to spray applications, which can incur over 50% waste of chemicals that do not contact and grip the intended tree surface. Trunk injections have become an increasingly popular alternative to spray applications in the control of tree diseases in urban, suburban and rural environments. Your neighbors will not complain or worry! Those large trees can now be treated safely, from the highest branch tops to the deepest roots!
