When it comes to protecting our homes from unwanted pests, safety and effectiveness are the top priorities. However, for households with pets, there's another critical factor: the well-being of furry family members. Traditional pest control treatments often raise concerns about exposure to chemicals that may be harmful to pets. Recognizing this growing concern, Call to Pest Control has introduced a new line of pet-safe pest control treatments, offering homeowners peace of mind and effective protection, without compromising their pets’ health.
Insecticides and rodenticides are designed to kill or deter unwanted creatures, but unfortunately, their effects aren’t limited to pests. Pets, particularly dogs and cats, are susceptible to the toxic ingredients used in many conventional pest control solutions. Curious by nature, animals often sniff, lick, or chew areas that may have been treated, leading to accidental poisoning.
Symptoms of pesticide poisoning in pets can include vomiting, lethargy, drooling, seizures, or worse. These incidents aren’t rare—veterinary professionals frequently report cases of pesticide-related emergencies. It's no wonder more homeowners are now seeking pest control solutions that keep their homes pest-free while ensuring the safety of their pets.
Call to Pest Control’s pet-safe treatments are developed using non-toxic, eco-friendly ingredients that target pests while being harmless to animals and humans. The company has collaborated with veterinary toxicologists and green chemists to craft solutions that:
Avoid harmful chemicals such as organophosphates and carbamates
Use plant-based active ingredients, like essential oils and natural pyrethrins
Are applied with pet-safe protocols, including drying time and ventilation guidance
Target only the pests through behavioral or physical deterrents (e.g., growth regulators or bait stations out of reach of pets)
These treatments are third-party tested for safety and are registered with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) under the reduced-risk pesticide category.
You might wonder if pet-safe means less effective, but that’s not the case. Call to Pest Control’s advanced formulas handle a wide range of pests with impressive results. Common pests covered include:
Fleas & Ticks: Crucial for pet owners, these can infest pets directly or live in carpets and furniture.
Ants & Cockroaches: The company uses food-safe bait gels and perimeter sprays that are odorless and safe.
Rodents: Sealed bait stations prevent pet access while eliminating rats and mice efficiently.
Spiders & Wasps: Natural deterrents and careful nest removals are done without harmful chemicals.
Termites: Advanced barrier systems and targeted treatments are designed to keep homes structurally safe.
Not every household is the same, and Call to Pest Control understands that. That’s why they provide customized pest control plans based on:
Type and number of pets (dogs, cats, birds, small mammals, reptiles)
Indoor vs. outdoor pet access
Size and layout of the home
Severity and type of pest infestation
Before any treatment is applied, a trained technician performs a free inspection and pet risk assessment, offering tips on how to prepare the home and ensure pets remain safe during and after service.
All pest control technicians at Call to Pest Control are trained and certified in both pest management and pet safety protocols. Their technicians receive continuing education in:
Animal toxicology
Safe application techniques around pets
Emergency procedures in case of accidental exposure
Communication with pet owners on best practices
Moreover, each technician carries a Pet-Safe Certification Badge, ensuring that the service you receive is from someone who understands both pest behavior and pet health.
Call to Pest Control also shares helpful advice with clients to enhance safety during and after pest control services. Some of their recommendations include:
Temporarily relocating pets during indoor treatments (even if pet-safe) is often suggested as a precaution.
Removing pet food, water bowls, toys, and bedding before treatments
Following the drying time and ventilation instructions provided by the technician
Keeping pets supervised for 24 hours post-treatment, especially in outdoor applications
Pet owners who’ve used Call to Pest Control’s services rave about the difference. Jennifer, a dog owner from Austin, Texas, shared, “I used to worry every time we sprayed for ants. My Labrador would lick everything. But now I feel totally safe. Their technician explained every ingredient and walked me through the whole process.”
Another customer, Daniel, who owns three cats, commented, “The pet-safe approach didn’t just work—it worked better than the previous toxic treatments I used. My home is pest-free, and I didn’t have to panic about my cats getting sick.”
Call to Pest Control isn’t just riding a trend—they’re part of a growing movement toward responsible, ethical pest management. As more families view pets as family members, businesses are adjusting their services to match these values.
According to recent surveys, over 70% of American households now have at least one pet, and nearly half of these pet owners have expressed concern over traditional pest treatments. The market is shifting, and Call to Pest Control is leading the charge with a science-backed, compassionate approach.
When it comes to pest control, homeowners no longer have to choose between a bug-free home and their pet’s safety. Thanks to Call to Pest Control’s innovative pet-safe treatments, families can now enjoy both. With trained technicians, proven safe products, and a commitment to transparency, this company is changing how we protect our homes—one paw at a time.
