Pest Control Through the Seasons

It’s no secret that pests can be a major nuisance. Whether it’s ants in your kitchen, cockroaches on your countertops, or rodents in your attic, pests are always looking for ways to invade your home and disrupt your peace of mind. That’s why it’s important to know the best methods of pest control throughout the year. Let’s take a look at the basics of pest control through the seasons. 

‍

Spring

Warmer weather means certain pests like fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes will soon become active again. To prevent these pesky critters from making their home in yours, make sure you keep grass and weeds mowed short around the outside of your house; trim bushes and trees away from windows; and keep gutters clean so water doesn't accumulate near the foundation of your home. Additionally, consider having a professional pest control service come out to treat pests regularly.

Summer

As summer approaches, ants become more active as they search for food sources inside their homes. To combat this problem, make sure you keep counters cleared off after meals and store all food items (including pet food) in airtight containers or bags with sealed lids. You should also have any cracks or crevices around doors or windows sealed up with caulk to prevent them from entering your home. Furthermore, consider investing in professional pest control services to ensure that any ant infestations are eliminated quickly and efficiently before they get out of hand.

Fall/Winter

During colder months, mice tend to look for warm places to nest indoors. To prevent them from getting into your home, seal off any entry points such as holes in walls or gaps around windows or doors with steel wool before caulking them shut. Additionally, try setting up some traps around areas where mice might enter—such as attics and basements—to catch them before they get too comfortable inside your home. If you find yourself dealing with a mouse infestation despite these precautions, call an experienced professional pest control service right away to help you get rid of them once and for all! 

Pests can be annoying at best—and dangerous at worst—so it's important to be proactive about keeping them out of your home throughout the year. With these tips for pest control through the seasons, you'll be well-equipped to tackle any potential problems that may arise! If you ever find yourself struggling with an infestation despite taking preventive measures, don't hesitate to call an experienced professional who can provide expert advice and assistance in eliminating any unwanted guests quickly and effectively!
