Keeping Your House Free Of Unwanted Pests

Any unwanted animal which has invaded your home is considered a pest, but homeowners most frequently complain about bugs, rodents and squirrels. As humans, we often forget that we are not the only ones living in this world and could possibly be the ones invading their space or environment. The truth of the matter is that even the animals we consider to be pests are all part of this natural world we call home and have every right to it. This is particularly true when it comes to our house. As such, there is always the need to ensure that their invasion of your sanctuary is curbed to stop them from being a nuisance. Below you will find some tips which will help to keep your property a pest free zone.

To start, it is important to keep pests from getting in. Most are looking for shelter and something to eat. Some of the time, all they are looking for is a dry and warm place they could make a home. If you can make it more difficult for them to find what they need, they will not come inside as often. Cleanliness will help to deter animals in search of food. Never leave dishes in the sink at night, and keep fruits and vegetables refrigerated rather than out on the counters. Never leave leftovers in an accessible place, and empty your waste and rubbish on a daily basis. Take out your trash often as well, so you do not have food scraps sitting around. You will notice a great reduction in pests as a result.

Keeping pests at bay is often as easy as making sure that your home is clean. Ensure that any spills are mopped up straight away. Put used dishes in the dishwasher so that they are not left sitting out. Many insects also seek out moisture. Be careful to address any leaks and plumbing problems as soon as possible, in order to keep water loving bugs away.

Pests often enter the home by way of small cracks and holes. If you are vigilant for potential entry points, they will not be able to do this. Use a sealant or caulking on all openings to prevent pests from making a way into your home.

It is important to pick up around the outside of the house to discourage pests from nesting. Keep items like wood away from the foundation of your home. You should also check your pets regularly for ticks and fleas, as these can be lurking in the grass.

Keeping your home free of pests is very straightforward if you adhere to these basic tips. Simple measures such as keeping your home clean, dry and secure will stop the majority of animals from making your home their home.


You may well need a professional if your problem is multiple pests in the house.
