Pro Pacific and the other contractor were about the same cost, but Pro Pacific provided a professionally written proposal, itemizing the costs, as well as proof of license and insurance. One contractor was half the cost, but did not provide a written estimate, only verbal- on the spot- and the quote did not include the repair work for the opening of the roof. All of them sent someone out to my property to assess the bee situation, and all of them provided a quote for the cost of the work. I had contacted two other Angie’s List bee removal companies besides Pro Pacific. From the moment I contacted them for a bid, to the moment they finished the work, the experience was excellent. We are thankful that we did not need to hire them after all, but we wouldn’t hesitate to call them first if we needed their services in the future. They were prompt, professional, and informative and didn’t attempt to sell us a service that we didn’t need. They correctly and calmly let us know that we only had scouts moving through, and since we had made our home as unfriendly as possible, they would most likely not return. Pro Pacific promptly visited our home when our garage seemed to be overcome by bees (in my book, overcome = more than two ) ). Clean up was so efficient, you’d never know they were there! They did such a superb job that I would not hesitate using them again.” They took photos as they worked to show me exactly what was done. It took about 2 1/2 hours to do the work. They came on Wednesday during the scheduled time window of 8-11 a.m. I called on Monday, they came out at the appointed time on Tuesday for the estimate and to spray the area.

Yet another function of trap crops is their use of attracting natural enemies of pest insects to the fields and concentrating them there to enhance naturally occurring biological control.Įssential features of the trap cropping are that the trap crop must be more attractive to the pest than the main crop, should occupy a small area as far as possible and must be established at an early or later stage or along with the main crop. Its potential role in improving the environmental soundness cannot be undermined. Trap cropping is economical and environmental benefits are often associated with this strategy. The principle of trap cropping rests on the fact that virtually all pests show a distinct preference to certain crops during growing stages. Trap crops are plants grown to attract insects or other pests that destroy the main crops.
