Should you control pests?

The reasons for controlling pests is important.

I have meet a few people who may feel that is it really necessary to control pests in their homes? Well if i am there having this discussion then the this answers for itself.
The simple answer is yes it is important to control pests so in what way is the best way to control pests such as bedbugs rats fleas mice cockroaches or remove wasp nests.
The main reason to control pests such as rodents like rats & mice is the disease they carry as such its not a simple matter of they mean no harm they just need a home. Humans have a greater importance for health than that of a rodent like a rat or mice so picking up a disease from a rodent is unacceptable due to feeling that they simply mean no harm apart from being annoying. 
I would suggest the main problem with pests is rodents that seem to carry a lot of diseases that can cause illnesses such as the following extensive list:

With the above possible disease that can be caused by having rodents there is a serious decision to be made by a customer. Do they get rid of rodents themselves? or best to contact a professional pest controller in who can advise them on the best treatment procedure.
With the pests such as insects apart from cockroaches bedbugs wasps & other common insects cause more of an annoyance that in my opinion i would not want to live with pests such as these.
