WHAT ARE PESTICIDES?

Pesticides are chemical substances that are used to kill or control pests. The term “pesticide” includes herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides. Pesticides are applied to crops to protect them from pests such as insects, fungi, and weeds. In addition, pesticides are used in the home to control ants, cockroaches, and other household pests. Pesticides are also used in public health to control mosquitoes and other disease-carrying insects.

COMMON PESTS TO STRIKE THE WORKPLACE

Electronic fly control units are an effective way to reduce the population of flying insects in an area. These units work by emitting a high-frequency sound that is disruptive to the insects’ nervous systems, causing them to become disoriented and eventually fall to the ground. The sound is not harmful to humans or other animals, making electronic fly control units an ideal way to reduce the number of flying insects in an area without harming other animals or causing annoyance to humans. In addition, electronic fly control units are relatively inexpensive and easy to use, making them a viable option for both commercial and residential settings.
