Santa has left the Building

/in /by

 

Santa is long gone now, but those Christmas pests & rodents might still be hanging around and now that the temperature has dropped, its important to winterize homes to keep them safe from incoming pests.  Here is some helpful advice to keep them outside in familiar Santa CLAUS fashion.

“C” stands for your chimney, make sure there is a screen at the top of the chimney, it will keep out rodents like rats and squirrels that love to access your house like Santa Claus does.

“L” look out for all kind of wild animals that might be circling your house looking for a warm place, so make sure all doors, windows, and skylight are well sealed.  Have a look at the roof and soffits to see if there is anything missing or displaced.

“A” Ants, this time of year, carpenter ants are searching for moist areas of your house so they can set-up satellite nests. So, make sure the attic and crawlspace are nice and dry.

“U” Unbox and inspect storage bins looking for any signs of rats or mice and use plastic airtight containers for future use.

“S” Safety, make sure that all pesticides and insecticides in the garage are safely stored away. Also, any cleaning chemicals should be out of reach of children and properly stored.
