No matter the time of year, keeping pests out of your home is a top priority. The warm weather means that more pests are active, and the cold tends to cause them to try extra hard to find a way into your home. When sealing off your home, you have to keep in mind that pests can range from mice, cockroaches, and even ants, so it is important to be sure your home is fully prepared. Each of these vermin will choose a different method of entry, so knowing all your options when it comes to filling every nook and cranny can make all the difference. Many people don’t even realize that there is more than one way to protect your home from insects and other pests!
Top 3 Methods
- Spray foam
- Caulk
- Pest Treatment
By doing any of all of these three options, you can insure that your home is well closed off to all critters outside. A pest treatment can help anything from crossing that boundary, but being sure that all the gaps or tears in all screens and doors is what will really insure your home’s barrier. Spray foam will help fill in any gaps around your home, while caulking can seal things like windows. This will limit their entryways into your home, especially when it is done by professionals. It is also important to be sure that in addition to doing these steps, that you aren’t encouraging these creatures to come to your home. Doing things like draining standing water, cleaning your home of food crumbs and particles regularly, and keeping up with pest treatments is the most effective way to ensure your home is well protected.
It is always the right time to make sure your home is protected! Be sure you check around your home and decide which method works best for you.
