Late Summer Pest Control: Tips to Keep Your Home Pest-Free in August

8/23/2023

 
​​As August arrives with its sunny, warm days and late summer barbecues, it's easy to forget about the potential pest problems that can also come with this time of the year. The late summer season is when many pests are at their most active, and they can be a significant issue for homeowners. At Professional Termite and Pest Control, we're here to help you enjoy the final days of summer without the worry of unwanted pests.

Common August Pests

In August, insects like mosquitoes and wasps are in full swing, and ants are busy foraging for food. Meanwhile, pests like rodents and cockroaches may be seeking shelter and food in your home to prepare for the cooler months ahead.

Late Summer Pest Control Tips
  • Monitor Outdoor Activities: When dining outdoors, cover food and drinks to deter pests, and clean up promptly once the fun is over.
  • Check Screens and Seals: Ensure window and door screens are free from holes, and check door seals to prevent pests from sneaking in.
  • Properly Store Food: Inside your home, make sure food is stored in sealed containers, and clean up crumbs and spills promptly.
  • Maintain Your Yard: Keep your grass trimmed, and remove standing water to reduce breeding spots for mosquitoes.
  • Proper Garbage Disposal: Ensure your trash bins are sealed and take out the garbage regularly to avoid attracting pests.
  • Check for Signs of Pests Regularly: Look for signs of pests, such as droppings or damage to food packaging, to catch potential infestations early.

Professional Pest Control: Your Key to a Pest-Free Home
While these tips can help keep pests at bay, a professional pest control service can provide an additional level of protection:
  • Inspection: At Professional Termite and Pest Control, we conduct thorough inspections to identify any current or potential pest issues.
  • Treatment: If pests are found, we provide effective treatments to eliminate them quickly and safely.
  • Prevention: We can also help you implement preventive measures to protect your home from future infestations.

Don't let pests take away from the enjoyment of your late summer days. Contact Professional Termite and Pest Control today for a comprehensive inspection, and let us help you keep your home pest-free. Enjoy your August to the fullest, knowing that your home is protected from unwanted visitors. After all, the end of summer should be about squeezing in those last barbecues and pool parties, not battling pests.
