The Professional Pest Management Alliance’s New Animated Series Uncovers Your Backyard's Pest Hot Spots

Introducing “Backyard Hot Spots,” the Professional Pest Management Alliance's new online video series that demonstrates how urban landscapes and backyards can turn into pest hot zones without proper management. 

Often overlooked sources, including leaky spigots, birdbaths, overgrown vegetation and unsealed trashcans, can become lifelines for mosquito, tick, cockroach and rodent populations. In an animated style, the episodes break down exactly what attracts these pests to your backyard, how they breed and how to prevent infestations. 

Check out the mosquito and cockroach episodes and stay tuned for more on PestWorld social media channels in the coming weeks!
