Did you know that pests like a nice home for the same reasons people do? In essence they want shelter, food, and water. That means if they can find those things in your house they will tend to move in. Pests that are most commonly found inside houses include ants of various types, earwigs, cockroaches, firebrat, flies, house centipedes, silverfish, and spiders. In addition, pests that like to make their homes on the exterior parts of your house include bees and wasps. If you own a cat or dog you may also be dealing with ticks and fleas inside of your home.
Each one of these bugs can show up unannounced at various times of the year. However, more pests are active during the warm weather in New England. Since spring is here and summer will be here before you know it, you may notice that more pests are invading your home. So what can you do in order to stop these invasive pests from overtaking your house? First and foremost, you cannot let the bugs feel at home. If you do, they will tend to stay and their friends will join them. Tears in window screens, and small gaps around the exterior doors and windows are like flashing neon signs that your pest motel is open for business.
That means you should take a close look at your exterior doors and windows including the screens. If you happen to see any holes or even small cracks they need to be repaired. You should also have weather stripping installed around your doors to keep out the bugs. As an added bonus it will help keep out the cold, which will save you money on your energy bill. Although this will help, you really should hire a professional preventative pest control service. We offer an exclusive home defense protection system that is based on four (4) strategic visits throughout the year.
The first visit takes place in the spring or early summer. In essence, it fixes the initial pest infestation problem and starts the preventative phase. We will conduct a methodical inspection inside and outside your home for pests and treat them as discovered. We will also apply a protective barrier around the entire exterior perimeter of your home in order to keep crawling insects from invading. Our next two (2) visits occur in the late summer early fall. We conduct a comprehensive inspection and treat any pests including bee’s nests and wasp nests.
We will also apply an exterior barrier to keep all pests out of your home. The fourth visit happens in the later fall or early winter. At this point we conduct an all-inclusive pest inspection of both your house and exterior property in order to diagnose and treat any potential issues.
