What if it rains after the pest control is completed?

Recently had an Expert pest control treatment and worried about the affect this rain will have on the treatment’s longevity? Pest Control in the wet weather. Never fear, Local Pest Experts are sure to apply the products and ensure proper application and drying times are met before we leave the job site. The pesticides used by Local Pest Experts are high quality, R&D tested products designed for long term, safe control of pests. Once the product has been applied and dried on the contact surface it adheres and is very difficult to remove. While high pressure cleaning equipment or ‘scrubbing’ will likely remove some of the product, rain or general ‘hosing’ will not likely have any effect on the product already on the surface and the life expectancy will remain the same.
