Additionally, many of the plant oils used are classified as �Generally Recognized As Safe� (GRAS) and/or are approved for food and beverage consumption by the U.S. FDA. \n \n Effective against a broad spectrum of insect pests\n \n EcoSMART�s products provide quick knockdown and control against a wide variety of indoor and outdoor pests.\n \n Attractive fragrances\n \n Because the active ingredient is comprised of plant essential oils, there may be a �floral/botanical� fragrance associated with some of EcoSMART�s products. This fragrance is not harmful and will dissipate after a short period of time.\n\n Customer satisfaction or its free! If we do not provide a service to your level of satisfaction, we will promptly return for free until you are satisfied. If the problem persists, we will refund your last service payment.\n\n\nMake the switch to Pointe and find out what others already know; that nobody takes care of their customers like Pointe.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Stink bugs can start reproducing a couple of weeks after they leave the nymph stages, which gives them several months to mate and start laying eggs. A single stink bug can lay up to 400 eggs in a lifetime, which can worsen an infestation. Stink bugs lay significantly more eggs in warmer climates where they stay active longer and have several rounds of egg laying.

Consumer-brand foggers or bug bombs are considered safe overall. Still, it's essential to read the instructions carefully as the vacating time varies depending on the type of bug bomb you use. Most of the time, it's advised that all humans and pets are out of the area for at least two to four hours after initiating the fogger process. It's also a good idea to vent the space by cracking open some windows for several hours after you're back inside.
