Before You Call 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.

When doing a bit of preventive pest control you will need to some do actions, to give you a fighting chance against a full blown swarm. You must do these actions with discipline and regularity, and do them religiously at that, for it to work for you.

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.

Another good step in pest prevention is a change in eating behavior. Try to eat only in the kitchen so as to avoid tracking food particles and crumbs everywhere in the house or the office. When at home, avoid eating in the bathroom, bedroom, den, or any other place you are not supposed to eat. The lesser food particles are dispersed, the less likely there will be an invitation for unwanted guests like rodents and insects.

Always take out the trash and garbage on time every time. May of us do not like this kind of activity and wait till the last minute or wait for someone else to do it. This is especially true if talking of food trash, which attracts all manners and kinds of uninvited guests. This is a job that you have to set your mind to doing religiously.

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.

Alternative ways to get rid of rats lie in the way of using snap traps and newly developed electrical traps. A good way and clean way to get rid of rodents of many different sizes are glue traps and glue boards that are easily bought in any hardware store. Remember however, that these methods are only good for small rat populations, but if they get to be colony size and such then it will be time to call an expert exterminator in to do the job.

When you do call in an exterminator, prepare to evacuate the premises for one or two days. This is since the premises will be full of poisons that are harmful to humans as well.
