Pest-proofing is a year-round endeavor; however, each season presents its own unique set of pest populations to be prepared for. As such, the National Pest Management Association ( NPMA ) is offering prevention tips for a pest-free home this fall.
“Once indoors, pests like rodents, cockroaches and spiders pose a serious risk to both people and property, triggering allergies and asthma attacks, transmitting diseases and bacteria, contaminating food, and even compromising the value of a home by gnawing through electrical wires and support beams,” said Cindy Mannes, Senior Vice President of Public Affairs for the NPMA. “It is important for homeowners to be proactive and vigilant in preventing pest infestations in the home.”
NPMA recommends the following tips to pest-proof your home this season:
As you carve out time for fun and holiday festivities this season, be sure to pest-proof your home to prevent an infestation. If you suspect the presence of pests in your home, contact a licensed pest professional to inspect, identify and treat the problem.
