Happy Fall! We love autumn and all of the fun that comes with it…plus the cooler weather! Fall is even better when it isn’t interrupted by pests, so let’s take some steps to help keep them away!

Consider the following fall pest prevention tips:

  • Fix any gaps and cracks in the exterior of your home so that pests seeking shelter can’t get inside and make it their own home
  • Pick up food and drinks after eating outside so that pests who are stocking up for winter don’t discover a free meal
  • Check freshly picked apples and pumpkins for bugs before you bring them inside
  • Watch out for stinging insects who are actively preparing for winter
  • Be mindful of overwintering pests like stink bugs and ladybugs who are looking to come inside for the winter
  • Don’t let your guard down for ticks, they are active as long as outside temperatures are above freezing
  • Ask your trusted pest control professional about seasonal treatments for your home as well as rodent exclusion
