It’s important to maintain a thorough cleaning routine to keep your home pest-free. Here are a few ways you can prevent pests in your home:
Seal cracks and holes that allow outside entry.
Reduce excessive clutter, particularly in spaces where pests can hide, like the garage.
Keep your garbage can lid closed at all times.
Keep the basement and attic well ventilated and dry.
Clean secondhand furniture and household items before bringing them into your home.
Clean your home regularly with chemical products. If you have children or pets, be sure to check that the product ingredients are safe and nonirritating.
