Winter Pest Prevention: Keep Bugs Out This Season!
Fall and winter are prime times for pests seeking warmth and shelter indoors. Here’s how you can prevent them from invading your home:
--Seal Entry Points:
Most pests enter from outside. Focus on sealing common access points like door gaps, window cracks, and vents. Use door sweeps, repair screens, and add weather stripping to keep bugs out.
--Yard Clean-Up:
Pests often migrate from nearby debris like woodpiles, leaf piles, or overgrown plants. Regularly clean your yard to eliminate hiding spots and minimize their chances of spreading to your home.
--Inspect Vents:
Ensure dryer and exhaust fan vents are properly covered or screened to block rodents and insects. A single gap can allow pests to sneak inside and create major issues.
--Barrier Treatments:
Partner with a pest control service for exclusion techniques and a protective barrier around your home. While not foolproof, these measures stop most pests from entering or surviving indoors.
