<p data-start="5582" data-end="5670">Many homeowners try DIY sprays or store-bought repellents. Unfortunately, these often:</p>
<ul data-start="5672" data-end="5841">
<li data-start="5672" data-end="5710">
<p data-start="5674" data-end="5710">Provide <strong data-start="5682" data-end="5708">short-term relief only</strong></p>

<li data-start="5711" data-end="5745">
<p data-start="5713" data-end="5745">Fail to address breeding sites</p>
</li>
<li data-start="5746" data-end="5798">
<p data-start="5748" data-end="5798">Use <strong data-start="5752" data-end="5771">harsh chemicals</strong> unsafe for kids and pets</p>
</li>
<li data-start="5799" data-end="5841">
<p data-start="5801" data-end="5841">Require frequent, costly reapplication</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p data-start="5843" data-end="5984">By contrast, our <strong data-start="5860" data-end="5885">professional services</strong> use industry-grade organic products, applied with precision and backed by decades of experience.</p>

</li>
<li data-start="6234" data-end="6305">
