Would you prefer to try natural solutions for your pest problem before hiring a professional? Looking for an organic way to get rid of pests in and around your Greensboro-area home? Go-Forth Home Services is here to give you some DIY pest control tips that you can use at home to help get rid of these invasive insects and rodents in a natural way.
Natural Pest Control Preventative Techniques
Effective pest control begins with preventing pests from entering your home. It is easier to control pests before they enter your home, rather than waiting until you have to deal with a full-blown infestation inside your property. Here are a few steps you can take at home that will keep insects and rodents at bay.
Our Greensboro pest control experts recommend the following do-it-yourself pest control tips:
- Replace old foundation vents with properly fitting and properly working foundation vents
- Seal holes in your home’s foundation and attic
- Caulk around any windows and doors
- Empty your trash regularly
- Store all of your food and drinks in tight containers
- Keep plants and trees trimmed back from your home
- Mow your lawn and regularly manage weeds
- Get rid of any standing water in your front yard or backyard
- Regularly wipe down kitchen counters
- Keep ripe fruit in the fridge
- Sweep and vacuum your home’s floors regularly
- Fix any leaky faucets around your home
- Keep your bathroom as dry as possible
Doing these simple household chores will keep insects and pests from being attracted to your property. Insects love dirty, wet environments, so making sure that you keep your house clean, dry, and well-kept regularly will provide long-term pest control for your property.
