Managing Pest Control Service Cost

One of the biggest problems in pest control is to understand the cost associated with effective pest control management. Pest control is done more for psychological reasons rather than on economic considerations. Most people look at home pest control when they sight a single instance of cockroach or any other insect, which incites the fear within that results in taking decisive action to combat the same.

Consumers usually decide the level of pest control required by taking into consideration the pest control service cost. Price is a major factor in determining which pest management company to approach. Like any other service company, pest management also works in a similar way and you get what you pay for. Pest control company should have a website where you can see the cost of their services or where you can ask for a quote, such as the Radar Pest Control company – radarpestcontrol.com.au.

It is not always true that a low-price pest management company provides the best of services and sometime they might not give a true indication of the full cost involved. This would be reflected in the material they use and the time spent in completing the job. These are some factors that also need to be taken while deriving the overall pest control service cost you are going to incur. Hence to get an ideal quote for the pest control service cost, it is recommended to compare quotes from different companies and the level of service provided. Get the detailed quote with the component break up so that you know what you are paying for.

All this would help you sort out a better pest control management strategy.

What about Patent searching? What is an IDS? Why search and can I do it myself?

A patent search is performed so that all applicable prior art is found. While a search is not required before a patent is filed it is a good idea for a few reasons:

Any prior art that comes to the attention of anyone involved with the prosecution of the application, must be disclosed to the PTO. This disclosure is called an Information Disclosure Statement (IDS). This document can be filed at various times, with various costs. Its purpose is to disclose any information that could be considered “material to patentability”.

Any published patent, publication or similar document can be included in an IDS. An IDS can be filed for free during the first 3 months after the filing of the application. After the 3 months passes the cost is more and/or the proof that the information was newly discovered is more rigid. If the IDS is not filed before the issue fee is paid, the application can not be issued, and a continuation would need to be filed.

Many times a invention can be made that is the same as an existing patent or disclosed in a published document. A search can find such prior art and the inventor can then choose to not file a patent, or can also choose to add some new, novel, non-obvious improvement so that the invention “clears” the prior art. There are patenting agencies like InventHelp that are here to help new inventors patent their inventions – learn more about InventHelp.

A patent examiner will do their own search of existing patents and other document from various sources. The results of this search will be used against an applicant, in the form of a rejection in an Office Action. Finding as much prior art as possible is necessary to see that the examiner has as little to work with as possible.

So it is in the best interests of an inventor to do a good job searching for prior art.

It is possible for an inventor to do their own search. One way is via various search engines on the Internet. However, Internet. Searches may only be able to find prior art up from about the 1980’s on. Any prior art previous to this might be needed and could not be searched on the Internet.

The next best place to search would be one of the Patent and Trademark Depository Libraries (PTDL). These libraries are set up at universities and in major cities and they have excellent search facilities. They also have staff that will help an inventor understand the search tools, but they will not perform a search for you. These libraries have all patents ever issued in bound volumes. They also have automated tools that will search for keywords or concepts and return the patent numbers of matching documents.

It can also be useful for a third party to perform a search at the PTO’s office. This search will simulate the searches that the examiners would use. They will be performed at the PTO’s search facility and examiners may be consulted by searchers.

But a searcher can only search to the extent they understand your invention. So the best search of all would be performed by an applicant traveling to the PTO, in Washington, DC and performing the search and talking with examiners in person. The third party search can cost about $400 – $600, depending on the firm and the subject matter. A third party search can take 3 to 6 weeks to be returned, although the actual search will take not more than 8 hours as explained on https://azbigmedia.com/business/why-new-inventors-turn-to-inventhelp-for-support/.

Consider Applying For A Provisional Patent

If you first want to educate yourself on learning how to apply for a patent, then you may want to get provisional patents initially. Keep in mind that the inventor that files the provisional patent has up to one year to “rent” these rights. This establishes a record of the invention that trumps applications to your same invention.

While there are some drawbacks to doing so, this patent is much cheaper, does not require you to write claims, and offers you protection with patent pending status. This allows you to establish an early priority date without the high cost of drafting a formal application. But you must file a non-provisional patent (NPA) within the year.

There are also patent submission services that allow you to apply for a patent online with the assistance of industry professionals such as Invent Help.

Steps to apply for patents are not that difficult in theory. Its the details and a persuasive and detailed writing style that might have you considering hiring a patent attorney or patent agent. The only difference between the two is that a patent attorney is a licensed lawyer. This helps if you should have to court to protect or defend your rights. Both will act as the liaison for you and the patent office. They will show you how to apply for a patent, perform a patent search if one is needed, and keep you apprised of all developments.

However, keep in mind that the services of a patent attorney or patent agency are not free. You will still have to do some of the leg work yourself, and any work that they perform will be billed either on an hourly rate or a set fee basis. Patent Agencies typically charge much less for their services as you can read from this InventHelp review. If you can learn how to apply for a patent on your own, you may find that it is easier and less costly to do the work yourself.
