Company Overviews

About NaturZone Pest Control

NaturZone was launched in Southwest Florida in 1988 to provide cockroach control to health-care facilities using boric acid powder, which is natural, nonallergenic and virtually nontoxic. The company has since expanded to handle pest control of all household pests, using a variety of products that are safe for humans and the environment.
NaturZone has been providing award winning green pest control solutions to homes and businesses with stunning success. When we started in 1988 the pest control industry trend was to make heavy applications of pesticides on a monthly basis to all areas of the structure.

Most people thought our concept of green pest control would only be attractive to environmentalists and it was met with a great deal of skepticism within the pest control industry.What we soon found out was that homeowners and businesses were interested in utilizing less toxic pest control solutions as long as they could get a good result.
