HOA Pest Control in Port St. Lucie & Tradition
Pest Control Within HOAs
Homeowner Associations are often the “buggiest” communities in our area, and there’s good reason for it. Lush landscaping with lots of flowering plants and regular irrigation from sprinklers creates the perfect environment for insects. A home on a barren sandy lot won’t have nearly the insect pressure of a home surrounded by vibrant hedges and thick, thriving turf. It’s no coincidence we set up our office in Tradition — we’re in the 34987 zip code every day because this area has more pests than any other part of Port St. Lucie.
“But our HOA covers pest control. Do we really need our own service?”
Your HOA almost certainly does not cover pest control for your home. In fact, they don’t even cover pest control on the outside of your home for the insects most relevant to humans — like fire ants. The pest control being performed outside your home at the behest of the HOA is to maintain curb appeal. HOAs typically hire a pest control company to make sure the landscaping isn’t killed by insects that attack plants, such as aphids or scale. These companies also try to prevent damage to the lawn from insects like chinch bugs. These are important services for maintaining the look of a neighborhood — but they do little or nothing to keep ants, roaches, or spiders out of your home.
“Well, do the products they spray on the plants kill the bugs that get into the home?”
Not effectively. Gone are the days of nuclear-level pest control chemicals that left no sign of life after a spraying. That’s a good thing for the environment and for people, but it means today’s products are specialized for individual pests. The product that kills chinch bugs in a lawn isn’t good at preventing ghost ants in your kitchen — in fact, it may well drive those ants indoors. To be clear, it’s not that the company the HOA hired to spray the grass and shrubs is doing a bad job or using ineffective products. It’s that products today are formulated to target specific pests, and the ones that control household pests simply aren’t the same ones that control the bugs eating your hedges and grass.
