You may enjoy the warmer weather of the spring season, but you detest the bugs that come along with it. Once pests get into your home, it can be almost impossible to get rid of them. When you have an infestation, your best bet is to call a pest control company in Columbia, TN to get rid of the problem.
These tips below will help you to control common pests before they get out of hand.
Fleas
If you have indoor and outdoor animals, you’re probably going to have fleas at one time or another. If you’ve ever had a flea problem, you know how difficult it is to get rid of them. They multiply like crazy and it’s a never ending battle. To keep the fleas from taking over your home and pets, treat your dogs and cats with a flea repellent and use a flea comb to get rid of any fleas that do get on your pet. In your home, vacuum thoroughly and regularly to get rid of the flea eggs in your carpeting. Frequently wash your pet’s bedding and your bedding if your pet sleeps with you.
Cockroaches
This is another type of pest that’s hard to get rid of once they infest your home. To keep roaches at bay, keep your kitchen area clean and don’t leave dirty dishes and food scraps on your table or counters. Roaches often come into your home unknowingly in boxes and bags. Before bringing these into your house, look inside for roaches or leave your boxes and bags outdoors. If you find roaches in your home and they seem to be getting worse, call a pest control company in Columbia, TN right away.
Ants
These pests also love the food scraps and crumbs that they find in your home. Since you’ll often find ants in your kitchen and on your counters, always keep them clean and free of food. Place open boxes of food, such as cereal and crackers, in an airtight plastic container. Inspect the outside perimeter of your home for cracks and seal them so ants don’t have an entryway.
