Home Pest Control - Gimmick?

Post by VegasD »

I get a knock on my door today from a salesguy from "Hometeam Pest Defense". He tells me that during the construction of my home, tubes where placed into the walls. Pest killer guys come out for $68 every three months and inject stuff into the tubes from the outside (they don't need access to your home) to prevent pests from entering the house.

I told him I'd think on it.

Anyone here every heard of this service? Any idea if it actually works, or is this just a waste of $$$?

Go to the side of your home. If you see a little charging box thingy than it's certainly legit. See this thread.

It's probably someone from OO who read that thread and is trying to scam you out of your money. :)

All I know is that if I build a house, I want this stuff put in....

i think this is the first time a spammer is helpful. I recently moved in a new home. I have the little box on the side of my home. I knew it was related to some sort of pest control, but didn't know what it was. If it wasn't for this spam post, I wouldn't have known.

Thanks spammer!
