Winter Guide to Pest Proofing
Insulate Exposed Pipes
Pests come in all sizes. Tiny pests can get into tiny cracks in exposed pipes. So it's best to insulate your pipes before tiny pests starting having a party in the tiny crevices.
Roof & Guttering
Check your room for cracks and crevices. These are a great place for rodents and pests to hide for the winter. Don't be a afraid to call for back up if you have a steep roof! Safety first.
Entry Points
Inspect all entry points that any pest or rodent might try to enter. This includes doors, windows, foundation and even vents. You might find that by adding weather stripping on doors and windows you no only save on your bills but you also keep out pests. Other great ideas include: caulk and seal gaps, apply liquid spot treatments, and change all your filters.
Clean up any food!
Rodents and pests love to feast on your food. Keep your food in airtight containers. Remove any moisture or water by keeping areas dry and clearn.
Declutter
Decluttering your home is a great way to discourage mice and spiders from invading and hiding in your space. They commonly like to show up in attics and basements.
Clean up your Yard
Rake up your leaves and clean up your yard. If you must pile them up or make piles of wood do them away from your house.
