Kennesaw Pest Control

It is a well-known fact that pets can be destructive. They chew through wires, contaminate food, and carry diseases. As Kennesaw Pest Control specialists Hole in One Pest Solutions know all too well, it takes more than just a few tips to keep your home or business pest-free.

Steps they recommend for keeping pests at bay:

Mice can be a pest that makes any worried. They reproduce quickly and carry diseases, so it's important to be mindful of their presence.

Use mouse traps to catch mice. There are both normal and humane mouse traps. For humane traps, place some peanut butter or cereal at the back of the trap for bait. Be sure to check your mousetrap often as you might have caught a rat by mistake or even a smaller animal. With humane traps, if you don't check daily or at max every two days, you might starve the mice that nullify trying to use humane traps.

There are a variety of places where the traps; humane or not can be placed. Mice tend to flock to places that are warm, dry, and have food. One of the best places to set up a mousetrap is in your home's kitchen pantry because they can smell food from far distances and will go for it.

If you notice droppings or evidence that mice have been around, then be sure to find where they are coming into your house through holes in the walls

Keep the perimeter of your home sealed off

Screens and caulking can be used to prevent the mice from even coming into your home. With the mice being quite small you might need a professional to make sure that all spaces are sealed off. This can be done DIY as a preemptive measure before you call Hole in One Pest Solutions, but there might be some spots around your home or business that only the professionals would know to look for. Call Hole in One Pest Solutions before mice start affecting your home or business.

Seal cracks in walls with steel wool before filling them with foam insulation.

Make sure that your house is well-sealed and all windows are closed tightly at nighttime for extra protection against pests like mice as they can climb through very small spaces. Even if they are able to get into your house or business if you apply foam insulation to the applicable areas they won't have a home to stay in deterring them from even starting around to being with.

Any food scraps should be stored in airtight containers and sealed uptight.

This will prevent animals from getting into the garbage, which could lead to an infestation of rodents or pests outside the home. But do check the containers from time to time as in some cases the mice or other pests can chew through the containers to get the food.
