Pest Prevention Tips

Take charge of your insect infestations in your home!

There are many things you can do to prevent pests from getting into your home. Here are some key suggestions and recommendations especially for homeowners:

• Make sure all doors to the outside are well sealed (a mouse will squeeze through gaps greater than 6mm in size). If you can see light from around or under a door, then insects can gain access into your home.
• Store all open food containers in tightly sealed containers or in the refrigerator.
  Check for plumbing leaks, and seal off gaps around plumbing pipes behind work surfaces. Do not let water accumulate anywhere in or around your home.
• Check grout around bathtubs and toilets. A good seal will keep out small insects, such as silverfish and filter flies.
• Check the attic for water, unnecessary clutter and unscreened vents. Seal or remove cardboard boxes to prevent insects from nesting inside.
• If you have a pet, do not leave pet food out overnight.
• Seal around soffits and vents to make sure rodents and insects can’t get into the roof or attic space.
• Seal around wires and piping where it enters your house. Many insects and rodents follow power lines or climb wires and pipes to get inside.
• Remove all accumulated leaves and debris from rain gutters and the roof to prevent flies and other insects from breeding under the build-up.
• Check all gutters and drains to make sure that water is diverted away from your house. The base of each gutter should drain water away from the foundation to discourage moisture from building up next to your house.
• Keep rubbish bins clean and lids sealed to prevent ants, cockroaches and flies from feeding and breeding in the rubbish.
• Keep the garage door closed, and make sure the weather-stripping along the base of the door is in good repair.
• Prune any excess plants or trees touching your house, especially on eaves and the roof. -These create a direct access for insects or rodents into your house.
• Remove debris, clutter or woodpiles away from your home’s foundation. This discourages rodents from nesting or insect infestations around your home
