“Pest control” may be defined as chemical, physical or biological measures taken to combat plants, animals and micro-organisms regarded as pests which infest flora and fauna as well as people, their homes, workplaces and storage rooms.

The principal task of a professional pest controller is to keep our present civilised environment as pest-free as possible. Despite comprehensive measures in the health and hygiene sector, pests cannot be exterminated but may only be reduced to minimum levels by taking well-aimed measures.

Nowadays, we constantly have to “master” new challenges – in the literal sense of the word – due to globalisation in every-day life. SARS, bird flu or other global phenomena are spreading rapidly. As a pest controller, we therefore have to make a contribution to minimising modern threats to human life. Pests are always involved in all these diseases, plagues or epidemics. From history we know the famous rat flea, which in reality spread the plague and frightened people over centuries. As a pest controller, we have to do our share on a daily basis to make sure that this will never happen again.

Agrica chemicals declare quality, environmental compatibility and the connection with people to be the indispensible prerequisites for our successful work. This is because, as a reliable partner of European agriculture, we want to experience secure growth together.
