Resolutions Homeowners Should Make to Keep Their Home Pest-Free

Experts are warning Jacksonville homeowners to make necessary changes to their houses since 2022 will be the year of the rodents! Leading entomologists predict that there will be an increase of rodents in the United States. Unfortunately, they are not the only pests trying to make your house into their home this year. Insects like roaches and termites are trying to turn your warm, cozy home into their territory this winter. Luckily, Russell Pest Solutions has ideas that you definitely want to turn into New Year’s Resolutions this year.

Rodent Proofing your home

Rats, mice, and squirrels are major pests for Florida homeowners, especially in the winter months. However, you can make sure the animals don’t come inside your home by preventing them from stepping onto your property. You can remove their favorite hiding places like overgrown weeds and tall grass. Meanwhile, Russell Pest Solutions will work to find the weak spots in your home where a rat or mouse could crawl inside. We also use a combination of materials to make sure the animals have a difficult time getting into your home and instead find another place to stay in 2022.

Do not let moisture accumulate near your home

Every year termites cause more than $5 billion in damages. This type of destruction can easily be prevented by making sure moisture doesn’t accumulate around your house. Homeowners should make sure gutters are working properly so water can be diverted away from the home when it rains. Leaking faucets, pipes, and air conditioning units should also be repaired so moisture can flow away from the home. You can also call Russell Pest Solutions to help protect your home from termites. We can easily spot the silent destroyers during our WDO inspection before your home is overrun by pests.

Regular pests control treatments

It’s very common for homeowners to only call insect and rodent exterminators when there is a problem, but you can save money by getting regular pest control treatments. Additionally, our exterminators will catch potential problems in a house and create a personalized treatment plan before the issue escalates into a costly infestation. Russell Pest Solutions has experienced professionals who will help give you peace of mind and make sure that rodents, termites, and other pests don’t run rampant in your home.
