What The Pest Control Company Doesn’t Tell You

♦

There are a few things that a pest control company wants you to know about the small critters that might be in an around your home, but the agent who comes to the home might neglect to give you the information. A Fort Myers pest control company and others in the country can often determine how long pests have been in the home and how they have entered the home in a matter of minutes after examining the interior and exterior of the house.

One of the things that you should know is that just because the kitchen and other areas of the home are clean doesn’t mean that there won’t be pests attracted to the inside of the house. While food is one of the leading things that entice insects and other pests to come inside, moisture and warmth are also things that they like and seek out, especially when it is cold. Gutters should be left unclogged so that moisture does not sit in the leaves, and you should make sure that there are no water leaks as these are a magnet to insects.

Sometimes, there is nothing that you can do to prevent some bugs from finding their way into the home. You can keep everything as clean as possible, and you will still see an ant, a stinkbug or a ladybug occasionally.

Another common pest is the bedbug. This critter does not mind the lack of food. It only wants your flakes of skin and blood.

The exterminator can do a lot of make sure the home is safe from pests and to get rid of them, but you are also responsible for keeping the home clean. The company cannot guarantee that you will not bring another pest home with you when you go on a vacation or go to the store, so while the company can get rid of the current problem, there’s no determining if it will stay gone in the future.

Another thing to keep in mind is that you should not use many items to get rid of the pests yourself. Sometimes, these products can only make a bigger mess and can contaminate the bait that is left by the agent.
