Guide To Pest Proofing Your Frisco Home
September 30, 2019
In life, humans are always in a war against something: the clogged toilet, the new and confusing TV set (and all the wires that come with it), the skunk that insists on living under your porch... In these battles, victory is often won, but for many Frisco homeowners, one war seems unwinnable, the war against pests. We are here to tell you there is a way to win the war against pests. Let us show you how.
What Is Pest Proofing?
Pest proofing is the act of blocking a pest’s way into a home. This is not as easy as one might think, especially seeing that most pests are insects and are able to fit through even the smallest openings. This does not mean, however, that there aren’t some easy pest-prevention steps that you can take as a homeowner.
Pest Prevention That Every Homeowner Can Do
When pests get into homes, they look for three things, food, water, and shelter. If your Frisco home does not have these three things, it is likely they will either die or leave, looking for a new home to invade. To reduce these three things, here are some things you can do:
-
Store leftover food inside of airtight plastic containers.
-
Make sure all of your trashcans are tightly sealed.
-
Pick up pet food and water bowls immediately after they are done with them.
-
Clean regularly, making sure not to miss under appliances and furniture.
-
Fix leaky piping around your home.
-
Install dehumidifiers in particularly humid areas of your home.
-
Keep your storage areas as clutter-free as possible.
