Nature as an Ally: Biological Controls that Work Indoors and Out

Lady Beetles and Lacewings in the Garden

Release lady beetles or lacewing larvae at dusk near aphid hotspots. Provide nectar plants like alyssum to keep them around. Their voracious appetites turn outbreaks into manageable blips, and your roses, kale, and beans will thank you.

Nematodes for Soil-Dwelling Pests

Beneficial nematodes seek out grubs, fungus gnat larvae, and flea pupae in soil. Apply during cooler hours to moist soil and follow label hydration guidance. They’re invisible to you, ruthless to pests, and harmless to people and pets.

Smart Barriers and Traps: Physical Solutions without Poison

Mice slip through holes the size of a dime. Pack gaps with steel wool or copper mesh, then seal with caulk. Add kick plates or brush sweeps. A single afternoon of exclusion stops future visits better than any spray.

Smart Barriers and Traps: Physical Solutions without Poison

Place sticky boards along walls where insects travel and under sinks where moisture attracts them. Replace regularly and label locations to track patterns. Data beats guesswork, and non-toxic trapping keeps you informed without risking sensitive indoor air.

Plant-Based and Mineral Allies: Low-Risk Products that Actually Help

Use food-grade diatomaceous earth as a thin dust along baseboards, behind appliances, and in wall voids. It dehydrates insects mechanically, not chemically. Apply lightly, avoid breathing dust, and reapply after cleaning or humidity swings for consistent results.

Plant-Based and Mineral Allies: Low-Risk Products that Actually Help

Insecticidal soaps and horticultural oils smother aphids, mites, and whiteflies on contact. Spray thoroughly, including leaf undersides, in cool hours. Test a leaf first and avoid blooms to protect pollinators while keeping your plants gleaming and healthy.

Pest-by-Pest Playbook: Non-toxic Tactics that Solve Real Problems

Locate entry points and wipe trails with vinegar solution to disrupt pheromones. Place low-tox bait stations along routes, not on them. Seal cracks, trim vegetation from siding, and keep counters immaculate. Report your results and favorite bait recipes to us.

Pest-by-Pest Playbook: Non-toxic Tactics that Solve Real Problems

Roaches love warmth, water, and tight crevices. Vacuum with HEPA, fix leaks, and reduce cardboard stacks. Use enclosed boric-acid baits, gel placements in tiny dabs, and sticky monitors. Rotate placements weekly and celebrate each silent, clean cabinet door.

Dump standing water weekly, from saucers to gutters. Add mosquito dunks with Bt to ponds, safe for fish when used correctly. Use fans on patios, wear breathable long sleeves, and place CO2 or heat traps strategically to thin swarms.

Safety, Sustainability, and Community

Even low-risk products deserve respect. Read labels, follow protective guidance, and store carefully. Apply precisely, ventilate, and keep children and pets away until dry. Your calm, deliberate process will reduce risks and increase your success rate.

Safety, Sustainability, and Community

Treat at dawn or dusk, avoid blossoms, and choose enclosed baits over broad sprays. Rinse watering cans, secure traps, and note where butterflies forage. Responsible timing and placement let you manage pests while celebrating every visiting bee and wagging tail.
