See you later, winter! Tips for Keeping Pests at Bay in the Cold Season
With winter about to set in, it’s time to say goodbye for a short time. But before we go away until April, we want to leave you with some key tips to keep pests at bay during the colder months of the year.
What can you do to get rid of pests this winter?
1. Sealing Inlets and Outlets:
Pests seek refuge during the winter, and they often find their way through cracks and gaps in the structure of your home or office. Before temperatures drop too low, check and seal any potential entry points. Not only does this help keep invasive insects away, but it also improves the energy efficiency of your space.
2. Keep the Cleanliness Going:
Hygiene is key in preventing infestations. Make sure to keep common areas clean and tidy. Crumbs, food residue, and waste can attract unwanted pests. Pay special attention to the kitchen and places where pets can leave food scraps.
3. Inspection of the Outdoor Area:
Don’t forget the outdoor area of your property. Pests often find refuge in the garden, in stored firewood, or in piles of leaves. Perform a thorough inspection and remove any potential hiding places for unwanted insects.
4. Store Food Safely:
With winter comes the season for long-term food storage. Be sure to store food in airtight containers and keep the storage area clean. This not only protects against pests, but also helps to prevent food contamination.
5. Schedule a Professional Inspection:
If you haven’t already, consider scheduling a professional inspection before winter is in full swing. Pest control experts can identify and address problems before they become serious infestations.
We hope these tips will help you keep your home or business pest-free during the colder months. We appreciate your trust in our services and hope to come back with more helpful tips in April.
See you later, winter! See you in spring!
