Winter Pest Control

It’s almost the new year in Springfield, Missouri. We saw a pretty cold week or two, with snow everywhere. With the change in weather here in Springfield, Missouri, unexpected guests may be finding themselves on your doorstep. I’m talking about unwelcome pests. When thinking about winter pest control during the cold months, we have to first understand these pests and how they think.

Pests start looking at our homes during the fall months as the perfect winter getaway. Just because there have been freezing temperatures outside does not mean that these pests are already living inside the walls of your home. They are unaffected by the temperatures outside. Insects can thrive inside during winter months because the weather is tolerable on the inside.

If you have pets inside the house, make sure that the pet food is kept in sealed containers. Rodents find their way inside by all entry points that aren’t sealed off.  Branches making contact with your house can help pests get in through your roof. Make sure to trim them, making an invisible barrier. Winter pest control means tightening up your home.

“Remember that invasive pests want to be indoors during the winter just like you do!”
