Physical pest control methods have advantages such as environmental safety, as they avoid harmful chemicals and are safer for humans, pets, and the ecosystem; and immediate results, as they reduce pest populations quickly. However, they also have disadvantages, including being labor-intensive, requiring significant time and effort for large areas; being temporary solutions, as they may not address the root cause and need repeated applications; and having a limited scope, as they may be ineffective against certain pests or in specific situations.
