Pests are invasive species of insects and animals that encroach and attack human property such as crops, livestock, and natural and man-made structures. Here are some of how they adversely impact our lives –
Diseases, Allergies, and property damage – While vermin are largely non-fatal to humans, they can cause significant damage to human life by spreading diseases, causing allergies, and worsening asthma symptoms. Some pests specifically attack your home and possessions. Weevils and Moths destroy grain, fabrics, and stored wares. Termites and Carpenter Ants have ruined robustly built wooden structures and furniture.
Loss of business, municipal penalties – Business Establishments can face additional losses that include but are not limited to loss of customers, reputation, and possible penalties and fines from municipalities for not maintaining the required standards of hygiene.
Anxiety – Pests also give you sleepless nights and destroy your mental well-being. The mental anxiety that comes from living with these unwanted guests while difficult to quantify, is a well-documented side-effect of living with bugs and insects.
