What is DIY Pest Control?
Thanks to the internet, you can just Google how to do your own pest control. There are a lot of easy-to-follow home remedies to get rid of pests that can be found online.
But is it really effective and should you be doing it? Besides, do-it-yourself pest control may bring more harm than good without proper tools and knowledge.

No Proper PPE
Chemicals that are used for house pest control in Malaysia can be dangerous when they are not handled properly. Therefore, the person in charge of doing pest control should always wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) to reduce the risk of direct chemical exposure.
Plus, different kinds of pest control methods require different kinds of protective equipment.
Not everyone has basic PPE at home, let alone specific PPE. So, when you do DIY pest control without the proper PPE, it can lead to serious health problems.
Using wrong treatment
There are a lot of different kinds of pests and they don’t react to just one kind of treatment. In fact, there is no such thing as universal pest control that works for all kinds of pests.
Different pests require different treatments. This means the house pest control is specifically tailored for each kind of pest.
Moreover, home remedies usually are very general and most of the time they don’t work because it’s the wrong pest control for houses.
DIY pest control solutions don’t always work
DIY pest control solutions aren’t always reliable. They may work today but that doesn’t mean they will work tomorrow. Besides, their effectiveness usually doesn’t last very long.
In addition, homemade solutions generally only allow you to treat pests that you see on the surface. There may be thousand of pests living behind your walls, your crawlspace, and other places that you can’t reach or are even aware of.
Waste of money
The main reason why people opt for DIY pest control is to save money. However, if you use the wrong treatment or if something went wrong during the process, you may end up using more money than intended.
