Abstract/Contents:Compares perimeter pest control to traditional pest control methods. States that "the interior applications are aimed at those insects already inhabiting the home, while exterior treatments target insects before they have an opportunity to enter the home." Details the process of inspecting homes with pest problems. States that technicians "look in and around the home for avenues and for sources of infestation...Then [they] make appropriate recommendations or treatments based up on the findings." Suggests that "including pest control, whether it be interior, exterior or a combination of the two, will help grow [a] business and increase...customer loyalty."
