Pest Prevention Tips!
There are many things you can do to help prevent pest
infestations. To help maintain a pest-free environment, take these
precautions:
¡@
Tip 1
Seal cracks in your home's exterior to help
keep pests like ants, spiders and cockroaches from getting inside.
¡@
Tip 2
Be sure all doors and windows are properly
sealed with tight-fitting screens and weather stripping.
¡@
Tip 3
Don't leave uncovered food sitting out. It can
attract flies that might land on it and spread harmful bacteria.
¡@
Tip 4
Consider storing clothing in plastic boxes or
pouches to prevent fabric pests from getting to them.
¡@
Tip 5
Ensure that the attic and crawl space have
sufficient ventilation. Proper ventilation creates an environment unsuitable
for cockroaches and other pests. It also improves the heating and cooling
efficiency of the home.
¡@
Tip 6
Do not allow pet food to sit out overnight,
indoors or outdoors.
¡@
Tip 7
Remove any piles of debris, stones, bricks,
etc., around your home. They serve as a harborage for pests, especially
rodents.
