Green Pest Control in Los Angeles, CA
California’s ever increasing environmental awareness has Los Angeles demanding more in the way of green products and services. Pest control is no exception. People want safer ways of controlling ants and spiders and other pests without worrying about their families or pets being exposed to chemicals.
Understanding Green Pest Control:
Many of us assume the words “natural” and “green” indicates that a product is safe or safer than a synthetic (unnatural) product, and that it’s better for the environment. Pest control and non-toxic are words that don’t fit very well together. In California, pest control companies are not allowed to use the word “safe” in regards to any pest control product be it organic or standard. If any pest control company in California uses the word “safe,” in describing a product, it’s illegal.
Companies both large and small are seeing the importance of “Going Green.” Hearts services many commercial buildings and businesses in Los Angeles.

It doesn’t matter whether a product is considered green, natural, and organic, or is, in fact, synthetic, if it can kill an insect, it’s toxic. At Hearts, we have a “First Do No Harm” attitude.

Going Green with our Greenthumb Maintenance Plan
Our Greenthumb program differentiates itself as one where you take charge of what we do. You are in control and we let you decide what you consider to be “safe.” We will, however, provide guidance without taking away your right to decide what is best for your family, your health concerns, and your employees or tenants. Hearts Pest Management is the one and only pest control company in Los Angeles and Southern California recognized by California’s EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) as a leader in Integrated Pest Management. We practice I.P.M. by using a variety of methods, other than pesticides, and implement them first, such as a full and complete inspection of your property. We monitor and check for areas that may need an “exclusion” to stop pests from entering, as well as habitat modification that will deter pests from your home and/or business. This reduces the reliance on pesticides and minimizes harmful effects on the environment.Is “Natural” Safe?

Be wary of the word “natural” because natural doesn’t always mean safe.
