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.

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.

Electric traps are a good alternative to poison, as well as snap traps or glue traps. These sort of traps are good for low pest populations, but it will be another matter if there is quite a sizeable swarm or horde of pests. For this it is the time that you really should call in an exterminator.

Once you do decide to take on an expert exterminator to clean your place of rodents or other pests, be prepared to move out for a while. You should stay away from your house or office where the exterminator has been to allow the place to air itself out naturally of any chemical fumes and the like which can be fatal to humans as well.
