What is "quality of life?" The definition speaks of a standard of health, comfort, and happiness experienced by an individual or group. If you have a low quality of life, you live in conditions that make you less healthy, less comfortable and less happy. If you have a high quality of life, you experience more days of health, more comfort, and more happiness. Which defines you?
Less Health
When you allow bugs to live in your home, you don't just "put up" with those creatures; you allow them to poison you in many ways. Pests are directly connected to the spread of disease, harmful bacteria and parasites. If you have roaches, mosquitoes, rodents, ticks, fleas or other disease carriers running around on your property, you could find yourself with an illness that will last from day to years. If you have flies, ants, roaches, rodents, or some other pest that enjoys getting into garbage, those creatures can spread harmful bacteria to other areas in your home. Learn about these pests and more when you visit our pest library.
Less Comfort
Though some might argue that catching a disease from a bug would make life considerably less comfortable, we've reserved this category for all those biters. When you get itchy red welts on your skin, life is definitely less comfortable. You scratch at those bites while you watch television, you rub those bites while you're trying to go to sleep, and you are continually reminded that life isn't quite as good as it could be. Some bites are more than a little irritating. If you get a bite from the wrong spider or centipede, you may find yourself on the way to the hospital--and that isn't comfortable at all.
Less Happiness
There are many pests that are simply classified as a nuisance. They won't adversely affect your health and they won't make life less comfortable, but their presence can certainly make you less happy. Anyone who's ever had a stink bug land on their food or a hundred lady bugs crawling on their porch screens will tell you, some pests are irritating.
