Pest and rodents aren’t simply a nuisance – they can severely affect your health and the health of your family. This is why bug and insect prevention is critical in protecting homes, businesses, schools and any other place where human beings live, work or play from a pest infestation

Here are some general tips to prevent pests and rodents from entering your home:

• Seal cracks and holes on the outside of the home including entry points for utilities and pipes.

• Keep tree branches and shrubbery well trimmed and away from the house.

• Keep basements, attics, and crawl spaces well ventilated and dry.

• Store garbage in sealed containers and dispose of it regularly.

• Repair fascia and rotted roof shingles; some insects are drawn to deteriorating wood.

• Replace weather-stripping and repair loose mortar around basement foundation and windows.

• Store fire wood at least 20 feet away from the house and five inches off the ground.

• Call a qualified pest professional for additional advice and treatment if necessary.

Well, its that time again and with it comes those nasty looking cobwebs appearing in your trees. Every wonder what causes that?….Say hello to the Webworm.

The Webworm is actually a moth, but in its larval stage, it creates unsightly webbing and nests in your tree limbs. While not particularly harmful to a healthy tree, it does create ugly cobwebs and may not look very appealing to you and your neighbors. Hey, they may just be helpful around Halloween though!
