Protect your home this fall with proactive tips to keep out pests seeking warmth and shelter.
As temperatures drop and fall approaches, many pests begin searching for warm and cozy places to settle—often inside your home. At Adam’s Pest Control, we know that fall is a critical time to take proactive steps to keep these unwelcome visitors out. Common fall pests include rodents, spiders, ants, and stink bugs, all looking to escape the cold and find shelter.
To protect your home, start by sealing any cracks, gaps, or holes in your foundation, walls, windows, and doors. Check weather stripping and repair or replace it as needed to block entry points. Keep firewood, mulch, and leaves away from the foundation to reduce pest harborage near your home. Additionally, clear gutters and downspouts to prevent moisture buildup, which attracts pests like spiders and ants.
Regularly inspect your attic, basement, and crawl spaces for signs of pests or damage. If you notice any, don’t wait—contact the experts at Adam’s Pest Control. Our licensed technicians use targeted treatments and prevention strategies to keep your home pest-free throughout the colder months. With our help, you can enjoy a comfortable, pest-free fall season and beyond.
Prepare Your Home for Fall and Winter with Essential Pest Prevention
You can feel it when you first wake up in the morning and as you are falling asleep at night, there is a chill in the air! Weekends spent enjoying the warm sunny weather of summer with family and friends are over and it is time to get down to business, the business of getting your home ready for the late fall and winter seasons. There are probably many things listed on your fall to-do-list: split and stack firewood, take out the air-conditioner, replace screens with storm windows, rake the leaves that have fallen onto your lawn, and bring in the patio furniture and outdoor plants. But as you are battening down the hatches and getting your home and property ready for fall don’t forget to add pest prevention to your list. Just like we tend to spend more time inside to get out of the cold snowy weather, pests do too. When the weather begins to cool in the fall it triggers many insects and rodents to seek indoor shelter to overwinter inside of. Don’t let your home become home to mice, ladybugs, boxelder bugs, spiders, ants, and more this winter, take the time now to winterize your home against pests!
