Top Home Pest Prevention Strategies

Seal Entry Points

Seal Entry Points

Inspect your home regularly for cracks, holes, and unsealed pipes. Seal all entryways to prevent pest access.

Food Storage

Trim vegetation, clear debris, and keep firewood away from your house—reduce outdoor pest hiding spots.
