# Affiliate Disclosure
## Our Commitment to Transparency
At Pest Free Gone, honesty and transparency are not just buzzwords — they are the foundation of everything we do.
To keep this website running and continue producing free, high-quality content for our readers, we participate in various affiliate marketing programs. This page explains exactly what that means for you.
We encourage you to read this disclosure so you can always make informed decisions about the content you consume and the products you choose to buy.

## What Is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate marketing is a simple arrangement where a website earns a small commission when a reader clicks on a specially tracked link and makes a purchase — at no additional cost to the reader.
Think of it like a referral fee. If you recommend a great pest control product to a friend, and the company gives you a small thank-you bonus, that is essentially how affiliate marketing works. The price you pay remains exactly the same whether you use our link or go directly to the seller’s website.

## Our Affiliate Partnerships
Pest Free Gone is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.
We also partner with other carefully selected companies and affiliate networks that offer pest control products, natural repellents, and related home and garden solutions. These may include programs through platforms like ShareASale, CJ Affiliate, or direct brand partnerships.
Whenever a blog post, page, or email contains an affiliate link, you can assume we may earn a commission if you make a purchase through that link.

## Does This Cost You Anything Extra?
Absolutely not.
The price you pay for any product is exactly the same whether you use our affiliate link or navigate to the seller’s website on your own. In some cases, using our link may even give you access to an exclusive discount or promotional offer.
The small commission we earn comes directly from the retailer — never from your pocket.

## How This Affects Our Content
This is the most important part, and we want to be crystal clear:
Our affiliate relationships do not influence our content, reviews, or recommendations in any way.
We have turned down lucrative affiliate offers from brands whose products we could not honestly endorse. We have published critical reviews of products that have affiliate programs available. And we will continue to do so.
Here is what you can always expect from us:
– Honest reviews: If a product does not work as advertised, we will tell you plainly. If there are safety concerns, we will highlight them.
– No paid-for opinions: We never accept direct payment in exchange for a positive review. Period.
– Research and testing first: Our recommendations are based on studying product specifications, reading verified customer reviews, consulting expert opinions, and — whenever possible — hands-on personal testing.
– Safety as a priority: We only recommend products we believe are safe and effective when used correctly, especially for households with children, pets, or gardens.

## Why We Use Affiliate Links
Running a website comes with real costs — hosting, tools, research materials, and countless hours of writing, testing, and updating content.
Affiliate commissions allow us to:
– Keep the vast majority of our content completely free for everyone.
– Invest in better research, tools, and testing to improve the quality of our guides.
– Avoid cluttering the website with distracting display ads that ruin your reading experience.
When you purchase through one of our links, you are directly supporting our work. For that, we are genuinely grateful.

## How to Identify Affiliate Links
You do not need to memorize where our links lead. However, to be fully transparent:
– On any page containing affiliate links, you will find a clear disclosure statement near the top of the content.
– Individual product links throughout our articles are affiliate links unless explicitly stated otherwise.
– In emails we send, we include a clear disclosure when affiliate links are present.

## A Note About Amazon
As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc., or its affiliates.
We do not control Amazon’s pricing, availability, shipping, or product quality. Any purchase you make through an Amazon affiliate link is subject to Amazon’s own terms, conditions, and return policies. We encourage you to read product descriptions and customer reviews carefully before buying.
—
## Your Trust Matters More Than Any Commission
We built Pest Free Gone to help real people solve real pest problems — safely and effectively.
If we ever recommend a product that disappoints you, please tell us. Your feedback helps us improve our reviews and serve this community better. We read every email at [email protected].
If you ever feel our recommendations are no longer trustworthy, we expect you to hold us accountable. Because without your trust, this website means nothing.
