Winter is when pests seek indoor warmth, making late fall the perfect time to fortify your home. Rodents can squeeze through tiny openings, while insects overwinter in wall voids and attics.
Winter prep should include:
- Inspecting exterior walls
- Checking insulation
- Removing stored clutter
- Cleaning garages
- Fixing weatherstripping
- Addressing moisture issues
Taking these steps before the snow arrives reduces winter pest pressure dramatically and helps maintain a healthier living environment.
