Pest control is an essential element of human
survival. Human beings need to have their homes,
food and clothes protected from pests for their
own survival. A few pests might even carry deadly
diseases with them which mark an end to human
life in many cases. Pest control in Chula
Vista gains more importance due to the fact that
Chula Vista has been a hotbed for pests and human
settlement has heavily depended on chemical
methods to control this problem. The need of
biological pest control is not only for the
benefit of human beings it is in fact needed for
the conservation of the ecological balance and
conservation of natural resources. What is
biological pest control? Biological pest control
means controlling the pest population and keeping
them below damaging levels without use of
chemicals. The methods and mechanisms used to
control pests and keep their population under
control are purely organic and natural. Generally
a natural predator is introduced by human beings
to make sure that a balance is maintained and the
pest population does not rise above permissible
limits. Biological pest control does involve
human intervention since the introduction of a
natural enemy or predator of the pests needs to
be done by a human being. The natural predator
needs to be such that is poses no harm to human
beings and its population is kept under check via
biological methods.

The advantages of going in for biological pest
control in Chula Vista A lot of pests have
developed immunity to chemicals since they have
been sprayed from a very long time. With time
pests do not die neither do they receive any
harmful effects of the spray done on them for a
long period of time. However if biological pest
control is introduced on such pests the chances
of developing immunity does not exist since a
natural enemy is introduced which has been
programmed by nature to eat up the pest. The
need for biological pest control in Chula
Vista Cases of asthma, learning disabilities,
diabetes, birth defects, autism, reproductive
dysfunction and many kids of cancers are a result
of use of heavy chemicals on pests. These
chemicals enter into the human food chain via
water sources or the crops on which these
chemicals are sprayed to ward off the pests.
Usage of chemicals in the past century has
increased manifold with over the counter products
being sprayed in homes, kitchen gardens and lawns
to make it pest free. However these pests do
return after a particular period of time and the
chain of spray is repeated which ensures the
reach of the chemicals into the water table
inside the earth.

Benefits of biological pest control While
spraying chemicals to kill pests we human beings
tend to kill the good organisms along with the
pests. These beneficial organisms might have been
helping in the better growth of crops, keeping
the soil soft for proper respiration of plants,
keeping other microorganisms at bay that might
cause harm in the form of diseases to human
beings. However biological pest control ensures
the protection and conservation of these
beneficial organisms since they are not a natural
enemy or predator of these organisms.
