Prevention Before Problems Occur
Keep them homeless
- Seal cracks and crevices where pests can get into
your home.
- Get rid of stacks of newspaper, papers, bags, and
cardboard boxes that make good homes for pests.
Keep them hungry
- Keep a tight lid on trash cans and empty them
often.
- Store food in tightly sealed containers.
- Wipe up spills and crumbs right away.
- Clean your dirty dishes right after eating.
- Pests thrive on moisture. Keep them from getting
to water by fixing leaks and not leaving dish water in the sink overnight.
Professional Treatment
Have a licensed pest control
professional inspect your home and perform an initial treatment to rid your
home of any existing pests.
You can expect an initial
service to include a thorough inspection to identify immediate problems, and
seek out possible danger spots in your kitchen, bathroom, basement, garage,
woodpile, and any other commonly infested areas.
Discuss with your specialist about possible treatment options.
Ongoing Maintenance
Season after season, your
home will be exposed to different types of pests -- roaches, ants, spiders, birds,
and rodents will all be trying to make a home in yours. To make sure the pests you’ve so carefully eliminated
don’t return, you can contract for continuing regular pest control services.
