Before You Search For Pest Control Jensen Beach

By Carol Ellis


In the world of human activity, there are two very common areas where most of this occurs. These are of course the areas of the home and areas in the office where one works. Pests will infest these places sooner or later, and you will need to call a reliable pest control Jensen Beach to help you out. But before this happens there are a few preventive measures that you can while you are living in Jensen Beach, FL before you make that inevitable call to pest control.

The checklist that you will have for preventive pest control will contain a few items that you will need to do regularly. These items or rather actions that you need to do on a regular basis, but the good news is that they are fairly easy to do. It will just take a lot of commitment and discipline to do them though.

One of the first things to do will be to clear areas of clutter. Creatures, especially rodents and cockroaches love areas with lots of clutter and trash where they can rest and snuggle in, or sometimes play in. These are also areas where mating occurs as well as delivering babies and other little creatures. Prime candidates for clutter are mostly unused areas like storage rooms in the house or office. You should at least set some time aside to clear the clutter as a first step in combating pest growth and multiplication.

A good control item or action to do will be to change your eating behavior. That is you should only eat at places where it is designated to eat. One should not eat in other areas like the bedroom, den, or some other place where you are not supposed to eat. Restrict all eating activities in the kitchen as this will prevent food particles and crumbs from being scattered widely which attracts pests.

A religious devotion to taking out the trash will be needed. Almost everyone in the world hate to take out the trash but it is a chore that needs to be done. It should not be done at the last minute, especially when it comes to trash and garbage with food scraps in it, which is a potential to attract rats and roaches.

If you do find rodents in your home or office, you can actually try to get rid of them yourself. Just take are not to use poison though, for even though this is fast and effective, rats tend to die in places that cannot be accessed easily and they will stink up your place for days on end. There are other ways of getting rid of rats.

You may think of using traditional snap traps or even electric traps which are getting popular. What is very effective also are glue traps that are designed for different sizes of rodents. All these of course are good if you only have a few rats to deal with. If the population is quite sizeable it will be best to call in an expert exterminator to get rid of large colonies and packs.

Should you call an exterminator, try to schedule it on a weekend for it may come to pass that you will need to vacate the premises for one or two days. This is to give the area time to air out for noxious substances that are not only fatal to pests, but for humans as well. Make sure you give the place you are hiring the exterminator for has time to air out poisons and chemicals.
