The greater Manila area is in dire need of pest control. I'm not even sure if there is a government agency that is dedicated to this considering our slums and old buildings.

Sigh.

Growing up in this city has given me my share of frights, from insects to rodents. And last year, while I was pregnant, I tried a lot of things to rid my parents' home of ants. And because it was an old house, rats from the squatter's area (forgive the culturally-insensitive term) found it easy to get themselves into homes like ours. But just putting out poisons will also pose a danger to us so employing the services of a good pest control company, like Terminix , is more than necessary.

After all, you don't want your home to be eaten away by termites. And you don't want rats leaving their droppings where a crawling child might pick them up. Pest control is a nasty business and best left to the experts who are backed by knowledge coming from years of research.
