FALLING TEMPERATURES SEND UNWANTED PESTS INDOORS

Tips for Fall Yard Maintenance:

In the fall, homeowners should clean up their yards to protect their homes from pest-related health and property threats. Without proper precaution from a fall pest exterminator in CT, MA, RI, and NY, pests such as termites, Carpenter Ants, spiders and rodents can find paths into homes and put families and their properties at risk.

In the winter, some pests want to come inside for the warmth and easier access to food.

Fall yard maintenance does not have to be a time-consuming and tedious task. There are simple steps that every homeowner can take to protect their home from many insects and pests.

Here are a few helpful tips:

Clean out gutters thoroughly after the majority of leaves have fallen.

  • Avoid letting trash pile up in outside bins.
  • Remove old tires from the yard that can fill up with water and provide a breeding ground for pests to help with fall pest control in CT, RI, MA, and NY.
  • Pull back or remove shrubs and tree branches from the side of the house and roof, which serve as pathways into the homes and food sources for ants, scorpions, rats, mice and other unwanted pests.
  • Stack firewood and lumber away from the house to eliminate harborage for rodents, spiders and centipedes.
  • Keep up on home-repairs such as restoring loose shingles and rotted boards, which can attract pests such as Carpenter Ants.
  • Pull soil or mulch back from the foundation of the house to prevent termites.

If pests have already entered the home or there is a serious infestation, you should contact a fall pest exterminator in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New York.
