Bugs -A Summer Problem

Bugs

We at Action Heating and Air Conditioning are not in the Pest Control business. We however thought that sharing a few ideas to help reduce your bug fight this Summer may be helpful to our customers and potential future customers.

The Summer heat and warm weather are attractive to pests.  However, you can make known to these uninvited quests a reason to stay away from your home by following these tips and more.

  • Try to keep tree branches and plants away from touching your home. These are easy ways pests can get into your home.
  • Keep attics, basements, and crawlspaces as dry as possible as well as ventilated to avoid moisture which attracts bugs.
  • Don’t leave vegetables and fruits out on your kitchen cabinets for a lengthy time as well as keep your kitchen as clean as possible of crumbs.
  • Be sure you have weather stripping on your doors to avoid gaps that will allow bugs to get in.
  • Storing your trash properly in your outdoor trash cans in airtight trash bags if possible.
  • Avoid any standing water in your yard that can attract insects, especially mosquitoes and gnats.
  • Encourage natural predators such as birds and even, though this may be hesitant, bats. These both can help control a potential bug problem.
  • Adding screens to windows can also help keep them out.
  • Repairing cracks and sealing openings around your pipes can help as well.
  • Keeping the perimeter of your home and foundation uncluttered can help as well. This can help avoid infestations.

We at Action Heating and Air Conditioning hope that this information was helpful in your quest to keep your home and yard bug free during these summer months.
