Spring Cleaning: Avoiding Pest Related Issues

St. Louis, Missouri (March 2nd, 2018)- As Spring brings warmer weather to the area, it also means spring cleaning is in the works. While everyone wants to organize their closets and get rid of old, unnecessary items, people often forget to worry about pests who maybe be coming out to enjoy the weather as well. St. Louis pest control company, Mick’s Exterminating has some tips to help prevent these pests from causing any issues in or around your home:

Close the Cracks: There are often hard to see gaps around the exterior of your home that are perfect entrances for unwanted bugs. So make sure to properly seal these cracks to avoid pests from making a visit.

Clear Away the Exterior of Your Home: Pests tend to spend time in piles of leaves or branches, so make sure to clear these piles from being near your home.

Get Rid of the Clutter: Critters like to spend time in dark, hidden areas, so make sure to clear as much of the clutter as possible to avoid giving them more places to call home.

Keep Food Out of Reach: Don’t leave food out, inviting guests to join in on the snack. Food attracts many pests, so avoid giving them a reason to hang out in the kitchen.

Remove Standing Water: Mosquitoes breed in pools of warm standing water, removing them will help to eliminate families of mosquitoes from taking over your yard.

Mick’s Exterminating wants everyone to know that the warm weather approaching can bring on many pest related issues, and know how to help resolve them before they become too much of a problem. Celebrating 45 successful years of St. Louis termite exterminator services, their state certified technicians are highly trained and experienced to tackle any pest related issue that may arise.
