No one likes thinking about pests in their home. However, taking steps to ensure that these unwanted guests don’t move in is important to the short- and long-term maintenance of your property. Uncontrolled pests can contaminate your home with unhealthy pathogens. Some pests like mice, cockroaches, and flies contaminate your home by picking up germs and spreading them around the house. Others, such as ticks and mosquitoes, even carry dangerous diseases and can transmit them to humans or pets. Not only are common pests unhealthy, but they can be highly destructive. In fact, the subterranean termite alone is responsible for over $5 billion worth of damage to homes in the U.S. every year!
Unfortunately, keeping the house clean isn’t enough on its own to keep away all pests. Although sanitation plays a large role in pest management, most homes need to partner with a professional service to prevent pest infiltration and to ensure that pest infestations are found before it's too late and become extremely costly.
