Why Now Is the Time to Fix Summer Pest and Moisture Problems in Your Home

Pests and moisture problems in late summer and early fall can lead to rodent infestations later in the year, especially during the colder winter months. Rats and mice are omnivorous, meaning that the other kinds of pests lodging in your home serve as the perfect attractant. High levels of humidity and moisture help brew the perfect storm, enabling rodents to find water sources for themselves and their large families.

Minimize the Maintenance

While it might be inconvenient, this is the perfect time of year to get smaller problems fixed and prevent further issues later in the season.

  • Have an inspection done to identify potential pest threats.
  • Eliminate pests in your home to prevent other, larger critters from setting up shop.
  • Run dehumidifiers in problem areas such as attics, basements, and crawl spaces. Portions of your lawn that tend to hold water should be filled in.
  • Check your home for rat and mouse entry points. Broken screens, cracks in foundations, and holes in walls should be fixed immediately. 

Keeping a close eye on your house goes a long way towards preventing infestations in the long run. Bear in mind that not all aspects of home maintenance will prevent rodents or other pests from infesting your home.
