How To Pest Proof Your Home.

Pest problems are often easier to avoid than to remedy, with that in mind we thought we would provide a few handy tips on how to prevent pests from entering your home.

  1. Look for gaps around pipes and wires which enter and exit your home, these can be prime entry points for rodents and insects. Seal all gaps with filler, sealer, or wire wool (an excellent rodent proof material).

  2. Look for gaps around doors and windows and seal with silicone sealer.

  3. Look for wide vents and seal with appropriate vent covers or mesh - make sure not to restrict airflow!

  4. Trim back hedging and vegetation which is growing too close or onto your house.

  5. Make sure all drain covers are fitted correctly and arenโ€™t in need of repair.

  6. Keep things tidy, the less clutter the less places to harbour pests, and the less food available means pests are less likely to visit.
