Watch Out for Mice, Rats and Rodents This Fall<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Now that the weather is getting colder, rats, mice and other rodents will be looking for warm places to stay through winter. This could end up being your NJ home if you don\u2019t take steps to rodent proof it beforehand. Our Monmouth County pest control<\/a> experts offer the following tips on protecting your home from rodents this fall and winter.<\/p>\n

Close Gaps and Cracks<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rodents<\/a> can easily squeeze through small cracks and gaps on your home\u2019s exterior, which gives them access to the inside of your house. Check the exterior for any of these openings and seal them up with caulk. Pay close attention to areas around windows and doors, since gaps tend to form there more often. Seal up any cracks or gaps in your home\u2019s foundation as well.<\/p>\n

Check Pipes, Vents and Drains<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rodents<\/a> can get into your home through small openings around pipes, vents and drains. Tighten the seals around these parts of your home in order to keep these rodents out of your home this winter.<\/p>\n

Keep Debris Away<\/strong><\/p>\n

Remove garbage, weeds and other debris that\u2019s close to your home\u2019s exterior. This eliminates hiding places and removes food sources that could attract rodents.<\/p>\n

If you need help rodent proofing your home or if you have an infestation this winter, contact our Monmouth County pest control company. Allison Pest Control<\/a> provides safe ways to eliminate rodents from your home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
