MOONACHIE, NEW JERSEY (January 28, 2010) – Dr. Austin Frishman, a world-renowned Board Certified Entomologist and recognized industry expert in the pest management field, recently confirmed the Integrated Pest Management (IPM) benefits of the Leaf Defier® family of gutter protection products in a report that highlighted the product’s ability to change conducive conditions in favor of home owners as well as building and facility managers.
“Moisture problems around the home and other buildings, including those found in gutters, can cause pest infestations and all sorts of structural damage,” said Frishman. “In fact, mosquitoes will breed in standing water most often found in gutters, while carpenter ants can build nests in moist wood caused by clogged gutters. Even termites thrive on the moisture on wood to survive.
“Our research revealed that the Leaf Defier multi-polymer insert solves these pest problems by keeping gutter pathways clear so water can flow safely away from the homes and other structures. As a result, Leaf Defier alters environmental factors in favor of the homeowner and not the insects. In addition, it also helps prevent all forms of pests from entering the gutter cavity to form a highly effective deterrent to insects that breed in the standing water found in gutters.”
This latest report from Dr. Frishman corroborates the findings of another recent study performed by Bientco, a leading national biological and entomological firm based in Gainesville, Florida, which also demonstrated the Leaf Defier’s ability to prevent insect infestation and breeding.
As a result, the Leaf Defier® family of products from Monzi has been proven a highly successful method for reducing the build up of moisture in gutters that can lead to insect infestations, structural damage and the creation of harmful air pollutants that can invade homes and other buildings.
