Organic Services
Overview
Organic is defined as: Of, relating to, or derived from living organisms: organic matter.
a. Of, marked by, or involving the use of fertilizers or pesticides that are strictly of animal or vegetable origin: organic vegetables; an organic farm.
b. Simple, healthful, and close to nature: an organic lifestyle.
Organic pest control systems protect the landscape environment from insect pests primarily through the use of biological and cultural practices such as habitat management; beneficial organism releases; sanitation; and timing. Some natural substances, such as botanicals and a few synthetic pesticides are permitted when used according to certain restrictions. Those pesticides must have active ingredients that typically are non-synthetic, and all inert ingredients must be non-synthetic or classified as being inert products of minimal concern.
For this service, we use only products that are organically rated by either ORMI*, the agency which certifies organics, or by the manufacturer since most structural products are not rated by ORMI*. Our technicians can perform quality organic services utilizing these products for your home and landscape.
